Israel Claims BIG STRIKE on Two Iranian F-14 Jets; But Tehran Laughs Off Attack on ‘Mock-Up Decoys’
In a high-stakes move on June 16, 2025, Israel claimed it had destroyed two Iranian F-14 Tomcat fighter jets near Tehran's Mehrabad Airport, hailing it as a blow to Iran’s aerial capabilities.
The IDF stated the jets were readying to intercept Israeli aircraft and that the operation also neutralized a drone launch crew.
But the story took a dramatic twist—Iran flatly rejected the claim, asserting the “destroyed jets” were nothing more than mock-up decoys, long retired and non-operational.
Satellite imagery and defense experts suggest the aircraft hadn’t moved in years, lacking weapons, fuel, or even engines.

Thousands gathered in Tel Aviv’s Habima Square to protest Israel’s war in Gaza, with former IDF soldiers and Palestinian activists demanding an immediate end to the conflict. Protestors urged mass civil disobedience and called on Israeli soldiers to refuse military service. Actor Yossi Zabari shocked many by saying “the word genocide frightens Israelis more than the act itself.” Peace organizers plan to set up a “struggle tent” in Tel Aviv as calls grow louder for an end to what they call a “government of death.”

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz released shocking footage of Hamas fighters surrendering in Gaza’s Beit Hanoun. According to the IDF, three Hamas operatives emerged undressed from a tunnel after one of their comrades was killed. They reportedly led Israeli troops to a weapons depot. The IDF also uncovered long-term underground supplies. The video, widely circulated, marks a symbolic blow to Hamas’s image. Meanwhile, Hamas’s spokesman Abu Obaida warns that over 20,000 fighters remain active and promises more losses for Israeli forces in the ongoing war.

Iran has issued a stunning ultimatum to the U.S., demanding compensation for damages from the recent U.S.-Israel strikes before resuming nuclear talks. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi blamed Trump’s 2018 JCPOA withdrawal for eroding trust and slammed Washington for using diplomacy as a cover for aggression. Iran insists on real guarantees, rejects U.S. calls for zero enrichment, and warns that rising anti-negotiation sentiment in Tehran could end talks permanently unless America changes course with serious confidence-building measures.

Iran has lashed out at European powers after they moved to reimpose UN snapback sanctions, branding the move “illegal, illegitimate, and politically motivated.” In a stern warning, Tehran hinted at a possible withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) if pressure continues to mount. Iranian officials accused the West of breaking promises and warned that continued provocation could trigger a major escalation in its nuclear posture.

In a dramatic shift on the global chessboard, Israel and Ukraine have agreed to initiate a joint dialogue aimed at neutralizing the growing threat posed by Iran. Both nations—haunted by Iran’s military exports and nuclear ambitions—announced the new cooperation in Kyiv during Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar’s visit. Ukraine accuses Iran of fuelling Russia’s war machine with kamikaze drones, while Israel views Iran’s nuclear program as an existential threat.
Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga of Ukraine declared Iran a “global security menace,” and thanked Israel for its surprise strike on Iranian military targets last month. The move marks a pivotal tightening of Israel–Ukraine ties, despite past tensions over Israel’s neutrality in the Russia-Ukraine war. Both countries have now drawn a clear red line around Tehran’s expanding influence—and plan to counter it. The anti-Iran dialogue could reshape the Middle East–Eastern Europe dynamic in the months ahead.

As global tensions rise, Iran hosts trilateral nuclear talks with Russia and China—just days before a critical summit with European powers in Istanbul. The U.S., once central to negotiations, now watches from the sidelines as Tehran rejects direct dialogue. With the 2015 nuclear deal hanging by a thread and “snapback” sanctions looming, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher.
Will this new Iran–Russia–China axis reshape the global balance of power? And can Europe force Iran back into compliance—or will diplomacy collapse once again?

Iran has vowed to continue uranium enrichment despite devastating U.S. and Israeli airstrikes that severely damaged its nuclear sites. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi called the program a “national pride,” rejecting any abandonment of nuclear ambitions. The strikes, which followed failed U.S.-Iran talks, sparked a 12-day air war before a ceasefire. Trump hailed the attack’s success, warning more strikes “if necessary.” Despite pressure, Tehran says it will rebuild its facilities, viewing nuclear power as a vital deterrent against Western and regional rivals.

In a harrowing video released by Saraya Al-Quds, Hamas' military wing, captured IDF soldier Ron Breslavsky makes a chilling plea for food and water, revealing the brutal conditions of his nearly two-year captivity in Gaza. Emaciated and visibly distressed, Breslavsky blames Israel's Operation Gideon Chariots for the suffering endured by both hostages and Gazan civilians. His emotional message highlights starvation, medical neglect, and the mental toll of war—accusing Israeli leadership of abandoning its own.

IDF reservist Roi Wasserstein, 24, died by suicide after 300 days serving in a war medical unit. His family accuses the Israeli Defense Ministry of refusing to recognize him as a military casualty.
