Exclusive: Leaked Audio Shows Saudi-MKO Collusion over Tanker Attacks

In the audio, which is being released by the Iran Front Page for the first time, Shahram Fakhteh, an official member and the person in charge of MKO’s cyber operations, is heard talking with a US-based MKO sympathizer named Daei-ul-Eslam in Persian.

In this conversation, the two elements discuss the MKO’s efforts to introduce Iran as the culprit behind the recent tanker attacks in the Persian Gulf, and how the Saudis contacted them to pursue the issue.

“In the past week we did our best to blame the [Iranian] regime for the [oil tanker] blasts. Saudis have called Sister Maryam [Rajavi]’s office to follow up on the results, [to get] a conclusion of what has been done, and the possible consequences,” Fakhteh is heard saying.

“I guess this can have different consequences. It can send the case to the UN Security Council or even result in military intervention. It can have any consequence,” Daei-ul-Eslam says.

Attacks on two commercial oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman on June 13, and an earlier attack on four oil tankers off the UAE’s Fujairah port on May 12, have escalated tensions in the Middle East and raised the prospect of a military confrontation between Iran and the United States.

The US, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE have rushed to blame Iran for the incidents, with the US military releasing a grainy video it claimed shows Iranian forces in a patrol boat removing an unexploded mine from the side of a Japanese-owned tanker which caught fire earlier this month.

It later released some images of the purported Iranian operation after the video was seriously challenged by experts and Washington’s own allies.

The MKO which has assassinated over 17,000 Iranians receives support from the US and its allies in the region, including Saudi Arabia.

The MKO which is said to be a cult which turns humans into obedient robots, turned against Iran after the 1979 Revolution and has carried out several terrorist attacks killing senior officials in Iran; yet the West which says cultism is wrong and claims to be against terrorism, supports this terrorist group officially.

After the Islamic Revolution in 1979, the MKO began its enmity against Iran by killings and terrorist activities.

Iran Summons UAE Envoy over US Drone’s Intrusion

Iran Appoints Female Ambassador to Denmark

In a meeting with the Emirati envoy on Saturday, the director of the Foreign Ministry’s Persian Gulf Department said Iran does not accept that another country provides foreign forces with facilities for any aggression against Iran’s maritime, land, and aerial borders.

“Other countries cannot disclaim their responsibility in such cases,” he added.

In a meeting with the Emirati envoy on Saturday, the director of the Foreign Ministry’s Persian Gulf Department said Iran does not accept that another country provides foreign forces with facilities for any aggression against Iran’s maritime, land, and aerial borders.

“Other countries cannot disclaim their responsibility in such cases,” he added.

The US Global Hawk (RQ-4) drone was shot down on Thursday morning in an area close to Kuhmobarak village in Iran’s Hormozgan province, near the Persian Gulf waters.

In a statement, the IRGC said the ‘Global Hawk’ spy drone took off from a US military base in the UAE at 19:44 GMT on Wednesday (00:14 am local time on Thursday), switched off all of its communication systems, and flew towards the port city of Chabahar in south-eastern Iran via the Strait of Hormuz in maximum stealth.

When flying back to the western part of the region, the unmanned plane violated the Iranian airspace near the Strait of Hormuz and began to spy on Iran and collect information, the statement added.

The IRGC Aerospace Force’s air defence unit shot down the intruding drone in Iran’s airspace at 23:35 GMT, it noted.

The doomed aircraft, an RQ-4C Global Hawk, is one of the world’s most advanced spy drones that costs more than $130 million to build.

The intruding drone was reportedly shot by Iran’s homegrown air defence missile system “3rd of Khordad”.

Iran Could Hit Intruding US Plane with 35 Passengers: IRGC

“Along with the US drone, there was also an American P-8 plane with 35 people on board,” Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the commander of the Aerospace Division of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), told reporters on Friday.

“This plane also entered our airspace and we could have targeted it, but we did not because our purpose behind shooting down the American drone was to give a warning to terrorist American forces,” Hajizadeh added.

The IRGC announced on Thursday that its air defense force had shot down an intruding American spy drone in the country’s southern coastal province of Hormozgan.

The IRGC said in a statement that the US-made Global Hawk surveillance drone was brought down by its Air Force near the Kouh-e Mobarak region, which sits in the central district of Jask County, after the aircraft violated Iranian airspace.

The IRGC Aerospace Force on Friday released the first photos of the wreckage of the downed US spy drone.

It displayed parts of the doomed drone, refuting earlier claims by the US that the drone was flying over international waters, and had not violated the Iranian airspace.

US to Go Up in Flames If Makes Military Mistake: Iran

Senior Spokesman for the Iranian Armed Forces Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi said any military mistake by the US and its allies in the Middle East amounts to firing a bullet at a gunpowder depot that would set their interests ablaze.

“[if that happens,] the region, the United States, its interests and its allies will go up in flames,” said the spokesman in an interview with Tasnim News Agency.

He said the movements of the enemies, especially the US, are under the close watch of the Iranian military. The top general reiterated that Iran will never initiate a war, but will not stand idly by if the enemy commits an act of aggression against the country.

The senior spokesman underscored that Iran’s fundamental strategy is to create tranquility and stability, and reinforce security in the region.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran would like tranquility to take hold in the region unlike the United States and its allies, which seek to provoke tension and chaos in the region, and they just rock the boat to plunder the interests and riches of the region and Muslims,” he noted.

He said some regional rulers are betraying their own Muslims nations as well as the Muslim world by helping the United States achieve its objectives.

The spokesman said the US and its allies in the region and across the world have got bogged down in a quagmire due to their diabolical and hegemonic approach, and the more they try, the deeper down they go.

Elsewhere in his remarks, General Shekarchi said the US and its allies are not capable of waging a war, and they have tried to topple the Islamic Establishment of Iran by seeking to hold talks.

“However, the United States is not capable of ousting the Establishment of the Islamic Republic [of Iran] because it would have done so if it had the power to,” he said.

“Today, what Iran regards as the real threat and as deception of the world public opinion is the proposal to hold negotiations with the US, which has breached its promises, is arrogant and violates all international regulations,” he noted.

He underlined the US only pays attention to its own interests and looks at everybody around the world as its slaves.

Iran Not after War but Prepared to Defend Itself: IRGC

Iranian General Amir-Ali Hajizadeh

In an interview with IRNA, Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force Brigadier General Amir-Ali Hajizadeh referred to the downing of an American spy drone in the Iranian waters and said the US move to dispatch its spy drone to Iranian airspace stand against all international law.

“Iran’s Armed Forces downed it based on their legal responsibility to protect the country’s territorial integrity,” he added.

“Maybe it was some American generals or operators who conducted the violation. We don’t know but we know that the move stands in stark violation of all international aviation law,” he noted, adding that the drone received Iran’s natural response.

According to the Iranian commander, Iran will repeat its response if the aggression keeps going on.

“Over the past forty years, the Islamic Republic has always been targeted by the enemies and the eight-year war on Iran imposed by Iraq under Saddam is a prime example of such oppression against our country,” he said.

The top general said providing national security and protecting Iran’s territorial integrity is the top priority of Iran’s armed forces.

The enemies have always been seeking to impose their domination on Iran. “That’s why we should always remain vigilant against their plots.”

He also noted that Iran has managed to gain self-sufficiency in defensive area because no country provided it with the necessary defensive equipment in the past.

“That’s why the US’ most sophisticated drone was downed by domestically made equipment,” he said.

He said Iran already has a collection of the US drones downed on various occasions.

Iran shot down a US surveillance drone on Thursday in its territorial waters in the Persian Gulf. This has created a dangerous new level of tension between the two countries in the region.

Spokesman Answers Questions on Cyberattacks on Iran

Mousavi on Saturday referred to the latest remarks by the US President Donald Trump about the downing of a US spy drone by the Islamic Republic on Thursday and said the Islamic Republic is prepared to give a firm response to any threat against its territorial integrity.

“Our decision doesn’t hinge on theirs and we will counter any threat or aggression,” he said.

He also pointed to the second phase of Iran’s measure to scale down on its commitments under the Iran nuclear deal and said the implementation of the measure depends on the other sides’ efforts and commitments under the nuclear accord.

“If the Islamic Republic comes to this conclusion that the other sides’ efforts wouldn’t go beyond lip services, it will seriously take the second step in scaling down its JCPOA commitments and we have already told them what the next step would be,” he noted.

The spokesman also said when the US president withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal back in May last year, the remaining sides of the JCPOA called on Washington to remain in the deal and said they would live up to their commitments “but one year on, they couldn’t fulfill their pledges or didn’t show willing enough to do so.”

“So, if they don’t adopt a concrete and tangible measure within the remaining time to live up to their commitments under the JCPOA, Iran will take the legal move based on articles 26 and 36 of the deal which say if one side fails to fulfill its commitments, the other one can take certain measures in return,” he added.

The spokesman said Iran has decided to take its moves within the JCPOA.

“If the side comes up with new promises, a high council charged with monitoring the implementation of the JCPOA will give an appropriate decision,” he said.

Earlier, US President Trump said he was not looking for war with Iran amid escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran.

Speaking to NBC News, Trump however warned that a possible war would result in what he called obliteration. Trump made the comment after he said he called off an attack on three Iranian sites in retaliation for the downing of a US drone, 10 minutes before it begins.

The US president said the United States is in no hurry for a strike. NBC News quoted Trump as saying that he has no preconditions for talks with the Islamic Republic and is willing to speak to Iran’s leader and president. Iran has time and again rejected Trump’s offer of talks saying it will not sit for negotiations under pressure.

Why Iran Leader Replied to Obama’s Letter, but Not to Trump’s

In an op-ed, Ali Shamkhani has referred to the stances of the Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution towards US President Donald Trump and his predecessor Barack Obama’s calls for talks and said the different reactions show that that the Islamic Republic behaves within a clear set of principles.

“During his last month’s meeting with a group of Iranian officials, the Leader talked about a letter sent by former US President Obama for talks which was replied mutually. But during his meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, he explicitly said that Trump doesn’t merit any exchange of messages,” he said.

Shamkhani noted doubtlessly there is no difference in the deceptive and irreconcilable nature, goals and behaviours of the US administrations towards Iran from Obama to Trump. “So, what is the reason behind the Leader’s decision to adopt two different approaches towards the two US president’s calls for talks?”

He answered that by violating all international norms and law, Trump is seeking to establish himself as an international racketeer with unpredictable behaviours. He thinks he can infringe on the Iranian nation’s rights through such methods.

According to Shamkhani, through this behaviour, Trump has created huge challenges in the international arenas and in some cases particularly in dealing with some low-level wealthy states of the region has managed, to some extent, to achieve its material goals and meet its arrogant wishes.

“My own interpretation is that the two different approaches adopted by the Leader towards the two US presidents is deeply rooted in 1) Iran’s emphasis on the principle of mutual respect and the policy of humiliating the bullies, and 2) its insistence on the principle of independence and continuation of active resistance as a major and never-changing strategy,” he noted.

No Drop in Number of Planes Flying over Iran Airspace

Head of the Civil Aviation Organization of Iran, Ali Abedzadeh, said as in previous weeks, routine flights by domestic and foreign airlines are being carried out through Iran’s airspace.

“The airspace of and the Persian Gulf remains safe and all foreign airlines carry out their routine flights as always,” he was quoted as saying in a report by IRNA.

He went on to say that over the past two years amid the growing insecurity in the region, Iran’s airspace has always remained safe and the number of flights passing through the country’s airspace has already surpassed 1,000 flights per day.

“Foreign airlines are interested in Iran’s airspace because it cuts short their distance and provides them with high security,” he said.

According to the head of the Civil Aviation Organization, so far no foreign airline has ever called for any change in its flights’ route through Iran’s airspace.

He added the Civil Aviation Organization is in charge of receiving and evaluating foreign airliners’ requests to use Iran’s airspace.

Tensions between Iran and the US have grown significantly over the past few days after Iran downed an intruding American spy drone within its airspace.

Some reports said earlier airlines have rerouted flights Friday to avoid airspace near the Strait of Hormuz after Iran shot down the US drone.

Meanwhile, American aviation officials warned that commercial jetliners could be mistakenly attacked amid tensions between Tehran and Washington.
