Trump's Operation Midnight hammer against Iran failed? Reports indicate US could only hit..., Iran is now...
US vs Iran Trump's Operation Midnight hammer against Iran failed? In a significant development weeks after US military targeted three key Iranian nuclear enrichment sites—Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan in Operation Midnight Hammer, it has been revealed by media reports that only the Fordow facility of Iran was significantly damaged during the US attack. Likely delaying the uranium enrichment activities by up to two years, the damage was portrayed by US as huge attack on the uranium enrichment process of Iran. Did US attack on Iran fail? However, reports are now saying that the Natanz and Isfahan sites suffered limited damage and could potentially resume operations within a few month after the United States led by President Donald Trump attacked it. To be specific, as per a report by NBC News, US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities last month destroyed only one of the three enrichment sites. It is also being reported that Iran may have re-started its uranium enrichment process. How did Iran react on US attacks? While Iranian and Israeli sources confirmed the destruction at Fordow, they also acknowledged that Iran's broader nuclear capabilities remain largely intact, raising concerns about the operation's long-term effectiveness. Iran always ready for talks on its nuclear program, says Iranian Foreign Minister Meanwhile, Iran has always been, and will be, 'ready for talks' on its nuclear program, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi said. 'However, it should naturally be guaranteed that in case the negotiation starts again, it will not lead to a war to be waged by the United States or other parties,' Araghchi said at a meeting with foreign ambassadors and representatives. Araghchi said that the recent Israel-Iran fighting proved that there is no other alternative but to return to diplomacy and a negotiated and agreed solution, Xinhua news agency reported quoting the Iranian Students' News Agency. As per a report by IANS news agency, the United States 'betrayed diplomacy and the negotiating table' by assisting Israel in attacking Iran and by directly targeting Iranian nuclear facilities afterward, he said.

Iran's Khamenei Calls Israel "Dog On A Leash" Of US, Warns Of "Bigger Blows"
Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Wednesday that it is ready to respond to any renewed military attack, and that it could deliver an even bigger blow to its adversaries, than what it gave during the 12-day war with Israel. "The fact that our nation is ready to face the power of the United States and its dog on a leash, the Zionist regime (Israel), is very praiseworthy," Khamenei said. Last month, the United States had launched strikes on Iran's nuclear and military facilities, although Iran has said that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only. In response, Iran had struck a US base in Qatar. "The base attacked by Iran was an extremely sensitive American regional base and an even bigger blow could be inflicted on the US and others", Khamenei said. Currently, Iran is under pressure to agree to a nuclear deal with the US, as Washington and three European powers have set the deadline for the deal to be at the end of August. If there is no progress till then, France's foreign minister said that a "snapback" mechanism will automatically impose all international sanctions that were lifted under the 2015 Iran deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. Despite that, Iran's parliament shared a statement on Wednesday saying that Tehran will not resume nuclear talks with the US unless preconditions are not met, in a statement published by the Iranian Students' News Agency. "In both the diplomatic and military fields, whenever we enter the stage, we do so with our hands full and not from a position of weakness," Khamenei said, adding that diplomats should heed "guidelines" and continue their work.

Israel vs Iran conflict: Three killed in central Iran after Israeli drone strike hits ambulance
The Israel-Iran conflict has escalated heavily over the past few days, and now a major and shocking development comes in from Iranian Students' News Agency. According to ISNA, a drone strike by Israel on Sunday hit an ambulance in central Iran, which resulted in the death of 3 people inside. These losses of lives come in as both countries cross 10 days of being at war against each other, which has seen missile and drone strikes from both sides. The three deaths included the driver, the patient, and the patient's companion, who succumbed to their injuries after their ambulance veered off course and hit a passing vehicle due to the impact from the drone strike. 'All occupants of the ambulance - including the driver, the patient, and the patient's companion - were martyred,' Hamidreza Mohammadi Fesharaki, the governor of Najafabad county in the central Isfahan province was quoted as telling ISNA. 'The impact of the drone caused the ambulance to veer off course and collide with a passing vehicle,' the statement continued. Drone strikes have now become a regular thing across both sides of the border, and have already resulted in multiple deaths. The new wave of strikes by Israel and Iran saw a major heightening after the United States entered this conflict with an armed response against Iran's nuclear facilities. The US was deliberating for the last few days about joining forces with Israel against Iran, and has finally pushed the first button. However, US officials are now claiming that Washington wants to sit with Iran for diplomatic talks after the attack on Iranian nuclear sites. In another interesting development, Pakistan was taken completely off-guard in regards to the United States' armed response against Iranian nuclear facilities. Within a day of nominating Donald Trump's name for the Nobel Peace Prize, Pakistan had to condemn the strikes the US had conducted against Iran's nuclear sites.
