On Cam: Putin SIDES With Iran | IAEA, China echo support With Iran On Nukes | U.S Under Pressure

In a major development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has openly sided with Iran, stating there's no evidence that Tehran is pursuing nuclear weapons. Citing both Russia's own findings and the IAEA's assessment, Putin declared Israel had been told this repeatedly. Meanwhile, China has urged Israel not to abuse its military power, signaling growing international resistance to further escalation. IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi confirmed there's no indication of weaponisation. These mounting global voices are expected to complicate Trump's path if he plans a direct US strike on Iran amid rising conflict. #PutinIranSupport #IranNuclearClaims #IAEAReport #RussiaIsraelTensions #ChinaOnIsrael #MiddleEastConflict #TrumpIranDecision #IranIsraelWar #PutinBacksIran #NuclearTensions #TehranUnderFire #RussiaNuclearStance #GeopoliticalCrisis #IsraelIranNews #USIsraelAlliance #IranSanctions #ChinaMiddleEast #PeacePushFails #IranConflictEscalates #IAEAClarification Also Read Pakistan's Delicate Diplomatic Balancing Act Amid Iran-Israel Conflict | Analysis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistans-delicate-diplomatic-balancing-act-amid-iran-israel-conflict-analysis-7779185.html?ref=DMDesc Sonia Gandhi Slams Centre’s Silence On Israel-Iran Conflict: 'History Reminds Us That...' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/sonia-gandhi-slams-centre-s-silence-on-israel-iran-conflict-history-reminds-us-that-7779139.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Says Gabbard Was 'Wrong' About Iran; Israeli Strikes Could Be 'Very Hard To Stop' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-says-gabbard-was-wrong-about-iran-israeli-strikes-could-be-very-hard-to-stop-7778805.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.125~HT.408~

Following the brutal terror attack on tourists in Pahalgam on April 22, the Indian Navy launched a powerful response under Operation Sindoor. Vice Admiral AN Pramod confirmed that India’s Carrier Battle Group, submarines, and air assets were deployed in full combat readiness within 96 hours. Positioned decisively in the northern Arabian Sea, Indian forces remain on high alert, capable of striking sea and land targets — including Karachi — if ceasefire violations continue.
