German parliament questions legality of US-Israel attacks on Iran
Israeli and US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities last month were likely in breach of international law, according to a report by German parliament experts cited by dpa news agency on Sunday. Israel claimed its pre-emptive attack was aimed at preventing Tehran from developing a nuclear weapon. The US followed up with strikes on Iranian nuclear infrastructure after nearly two weeks of hostilities between the Middle Eastern countries, before pushing both sides to agree to a ceasefire. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz publicly endorsed the initial attacks, calling it 'the dirty work that Israel is doing for all of us.' Iran has consistently denied any military aim for its nuclear program. Countries including Russia and China condemned the Israeli and American actions, arguing they undermined the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which protects the right of signatories to pursue nuclear energy for peaceful purposes. Legal experts from the Bundestag's Research Services argued that 'the vast majority of international lawyers' do not consider Israel's actions to be a valid exercise of self-defense under the UN Charter, according to dpa. Their findings were compiled in a 54-page report reportedly shared with the news agency. To legally justify the strikes, Israel would need to demonstrate that Iran had both the intent to deploy a nuclear weapon and immediate capability to produce one, the experts stated. The report also noted that the US could not claim the right of collective defense if Israel's initial strike was itself unlawful. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov accused Western countries of complicity in what Moscow calls a US-Israeli breach of international norms. He claimed that the UK, Germany, and France pressured the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to use imprecise language in a report on Iran's nuclear program presented to the UN nuclear watchdog's board by Director General Rafael Grossi just weeks before the escalation. 'The Europeans took a purely imperialist, neocolonial position,' Lavrov said. 'They pushed Grossi to use highly ambitious and negative phrases in the document, which he did.' Israel launched military action right after the board accused Tehran of breaching its obligations under the NPT. The Bundestag's legal analysis was commissioned by lawmaker Ulrich Thoden of The Left party. Thoden called the findings 'a slap in the face for the German government' and criticized its alignment with Israel and the US during the crisis.

Inside a B-2 Bomber: What It's Like to Fly a U.S. Strike Mission Over Iran
Réservé aux abonnés To strike Iran's nuclear facilities on June 22, the pilots of the seven B-2 bombers armed with GBU-57 bunker-buster bombs flew nonstop for 37 hours - without ever touching the ground. Since its first combat missions in 1999, B-2 have carried only the bare essentials, built as they are for stealth, range, and precision. The American mission 'Midnight Hammer,' which targeted key Iranian nuclear sites on the night of June 22, was not only an operational success. It also represented a physical feat for the B-2 Spirit pilots who dropped GBU-57 bunker-busting bombs on Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. Departing from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, the seven aircraft covered the thousands of kilometers to Iran and returned directly to the United States without ever landing. Refueled several times mid-air, they flew a round-trip mission lasting 37 hours. Remarkably, this isn't even a record: in 2001, six B-2s struck Afghanistan from Missouri in a 44-hour mission. Theoretically, the bomber can cover 11,000 kilometers without refueling, and over 18,000 km with a single aerial refueling. The B-2's reputation for endurance is well established. But the pilots' stamina is even more impressive. They are, of course, trained for these kinds of ultra-long missions: each one has spent long hours in a flight simulator that…

Netanyahu nominates Trump for Nobel Peace Prize, gives him a copy of nominating letter

What's at Stake as Netanyahu and Trump Meet in Washington
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel landed in Washington on Monday for talks with President Trump, in what will be their first meeting since the two leaders launched unprecedented strikes on Iran and as the U.S. president pushes for a cease-fire in Gaza. Just last month, Mr. Trump ordered American stealth bombers to join an Israeli military offensive against Iran's nuclear and ballistic weapons program — a fierce assault that was met by Iranian missile attacks in Israeli cities. With the fighting in Iran over, Mr. Trump is considering whether to pursue a new nuclear agreement with Tehran. He is also urging a new cease-fire deal to end the fighting in Gaza. Here's what's at stake in the upcoming meeting between the two leaders, their third since Mr. Trump returned to office. The future of the Gaza war Many in Israel and Gaza hope Mr. Netanyahu's meeting with Mr. Trump will pave the way for a new truce that would end 21 months of war and free the hostages still held there in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. Israel and Hamas have previously agreed to two short-lived cease-fires. The last one, which Israel ended in mid-March, saw more than 1,500 Palestinian prisoners released during exchanges for 30 hostages and the bodies of eight others. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
