Iranian MP Mahmoud Nabavian: U.S. Should Prepare 50,000 Coffins Before Even Taking a Hostile Glance Our Way; If They Block Our Oil Flow – No Other Country's Oil Will Flow
Nabavian said that Iranian missiles could reach American bases in the region within 2–4 minutes, making them impossible to intercept, and added that striking an American destroyer is well within Iran's capabilities. He said Iran is monitoring Diego Garcia and has plans for it.
He warned the U.S. that before even contemplating aggression against Iran, it should prepare 50,000 coffins for its troops, 'before they even dare take a hostile glance at the Iranian nation.' He also said Iran would retaliate against Israel for the assassination of its Chief of Staff with assassinations of its own, whether during or after the war.

Lebanese politicians seek legal action against Hezbollah's Secretary-General
Shafaq News – Beirut A group of Lebanese lawmakers and political figures announced on Tuesday their intention to file a legal complaint against Hezbollah Secretary-General Naim Qassem, accusing him of inciting 'sectarian strife and threatening civil war.' The group, representing the "Sovereign Front" — a group of US and Saudi allied parties and politicians — stated in a joint declaration that Qassem's recent statements come at a 'critical moment in Lebanon's history,' as efforts are underway to curb the proliferation of illegal weapons allegedly backed by Iran. The statement warned that remaining silent in the face of what it described as 'the actions of Qassem and his armed organization' could endanger Lebanese citizens. Qassem, in his latest speech, accused the Lebanese government of 'carrying out the American-Israeli agenda to dismantle the resistance, even at the cost of civil war and internal strife.' He added that Hezbollah would not surrender its weapons 'as long as occupation and aggression persist,' placing full responsibility for any potential conflict on the government. 'We do not seek strife,' he said, 'but others are working toward it.'

US to complete withdrawal from Ain al-Assad base in September
Shafaq News – Baghdad The last American soldier will leave Ain al-Assad airbase in western Al-Anbar province on September 15, an Iraqi security source said on Tuesday. The source added that a small number of US personnel, including senior officers, will stay in Baghdad as part of joint forces when required. The withdrawal began on Monday with the departure of the first convoy from Ain al-Assad toward Syria. The column included trucks carrying military vehicles, according to another security source. Ain al-Assad is Iraq's second-largest airbase after Balad, serving as the headquarters of the US Army's 7th Division. It lies about 10 kilometers from the town of al-Baghdadi in Al-Anbar province. Earlier, a spokesperson for the US Embassy in Baghdad told Shafaq News that the coalition will shift from a military mission in Iraq to a more traditional bilateral security partnership, emphasizing that coalition activities would continue under civilian leadership at the global level. A government source told Shafaq News that Baghdad and coalition members, led by the United States, agreed on a timeline ending coalition operations in September 2025, leading to a full withdrawal in September 2026. By then, fewer than 500 troops will remain in Erbil, while others will move to Kuwait.
