EU lawmakers support shooting down Russian planes

The resolution, introduced earlier this week after several reports of unidentified drones near airports and military sites, urges EU members to take “coordinated, united and proportionate action against all violations of their airspace, including shooting down airborne threats.”

It also “strongly condemns Russia’s reckless and escalatory actions of violating the airspace” of EU and NATO members Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Romania, and what it describes as “deliberate drone incursions” in Denmark, Sweden and Norway.

Moscow has repeatedly called the accusations groundless and stressed that no evidence has ever been presented linking the drones to Russia. Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof also admitted on Tuesday that the EU had no evidence of Russia’s involvement in the drone sightings.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated on Monday that European politicians have developed a habit of blaming Russia for everything “without grounds,” suggesting they should “broaden their horizons” after several Europeans were recently detained near airports for flying personal drones.

According to Bild, three German nationals were detained in Norway last week for launching a drone in a prohibited zone around an airport, while in a separate incident a Chinese national was deported from Norway after similarly flying a personal drone near an airport. On Saturday, Bild also reported that a Croatian citizen had been detained near Frankfurt Airport in Germany for launching a drone.

Russian officials have described the drone accusations as Western fearmongering used to whip up anti-Russian hysteria and justify boosting military budgets and escalating tensions.

Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) has cautioned that Ukrainian forces could stage false-flags involving drones to frame Moscow and draw NATO into the Ukraine conflict.

 

Rumors about assassination of Iran’s General Qaani denied

Tasnim News Agency said the claims, spread by social media accounts linked to the Zionist regime, are baseless.

The rumors resurfaced after a scrap warehouse caught fire in eastern Tehran, but Iranian media reported that the blaze caused no casualties.

Since the start of Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, the Zionist regime has repeatedly—-dozens of times—spread false claims about General Qaani’s assassination.

One Mossad-affiliated account known as Terror Alarm frequently publishes a mix of true and false information online, with the aim of conducting psychological operations in favor of the agenda of the Zionist regime’s spy agency Mossad, Tasnim added. The account has repeatedly released fabricated reports of assassinations in the past.

In his recent interview, General Qaani responded to such allegations, saying, “The Zionist regime spreads news of my assassination so that friends become worried and contact me, allowing them to find my exact location”.

Baqaei described the actions as a threat to regional peace and security.

He also warned of the consequences that the expansion of Washington’s lawlessness and belligerent unilateralism could have for global peace and stability.

Baqaei slammed the US’s military attacks on fishing vessels in the region and its threats to use force against the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Venezuela, calling these actions a blatant violation of the principles of the UN Charter and the fundamental rules of international law.

He urged the United Nations Security Council and the UN chief to give immediate attention to the dangerous situation arising from the US’s insistence on unlawfully interfering in the internal affairs of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, as a sovereign member state of the UN.

Mohajerani stated that Tehran supports “any step that results in the withdrawal of occupying forces, the delivery of humanitarian aid, and the release of Palestinian prisoners.”

She emphasized that Iran’s support for the Palestinian people “is not merely a political stance, but one rooted in the belief in the right of nations to self-determination.”

The spokesperson described Palestinian resistance as legitimate, saying it forms an integral part of restoring the rights of the Palestinian people.

Mohajerani further stressed that “ending the crimes in Gaza does not mark the end of the road,” calling on governments and international institutions to hold accountable those responsible for ordering and carrying out acts of war and mass killings in the enclave.

Her remarks came a day after regional and international efforts led to a ceasefire that put an end to the ceaseless Israeli aggression against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip since October 2023.

Participants also called for an honorable and lasting peace in Palestine and resistance against global arrogance.

The rally began at noon, immediately after Friday prayers at the University of Tehran, and saw the participation of people from all walks of life, including clerics, families of martyrs, students, and youth, who marched along Enghelab Street toward Azadi Square, west of Tehran.

Carrying Iranian and Palestinian flags as well as pictures of martyred Resistance commanders, the demonstrators showcased the unity and solidarity of the Iranian nation with the people of Gaza and the broader Resistance Front.

The crowd chanted slogans such as “Allahu Akbar,” “Labbayk Ya Khamenei,” “Palestine will triumph,” “Gaza is not alone,” “Down with Zionism,” and “Nuclear energy is our right,” reaffirming their commitment to the liberation of al-Quds.

Women and children also played a prominent role, holding banners reading “No to compromise, yes to resistance” and “The nations are awake,” conveying a clear message of Iran’s steadfast stance against oppression.

Many participants wore Palestinian keffiyehs and carried the flags of Resistance movements on their shoulders.

At the conclusion of the rally, participants issued a statement emphasizing continued support for the Palestinian people, opposition to the aggressive policies of the United States and the Zionist regime, and commitment to the path of resistance until the full liberation of al-Quds.

The statement also urged Islamic countries to adopt firm and independent positions in defense of the Palestinian nation and to reject normalization efforts with the occupying regime.

Similar demonstrations were held in other Iranian cities, where participants voiced their solidarity with the Palestinian people in their struggle against the crimes of the Zionist regime.

Iran Defense Ministry spox Israel Forced to Sign Agreement with Hamas

Talai-Nik stated that “the criminal Israeli regime, which had claimed it could achieve its goals — such as freeing hostages — through military operations and the destruction of Hamas, has now been forced to sign an agreement and grant concessions to Hamas.”

Referring to the extensive US support for Israel, the Defense Ministry spokesman emphasized that the “US-Israel axis, as the global criminal front, has lost its credibility under popular pressure and has been compelled to accept a ceasefire and an agreement with Hamas.”

In another part of his remarks, Talai-Nik highlighted Iran’s self-sufficiency in military affairs, noting that dependence on foreign military sources has sharply decreased since the Islamic Revolution. He added that “thanks to the efforts of knowledge-based companies and Iranian experts, more than a thousand defense systems and pieces of equipment have been produced, bringing the country to 90 percent self-reliance.”

According to Talai-Nik, despite sanctions and external pressure, Iran’s advancements in defense capability serve as a successful model for other sectors.
