Chinese Foreign Ministry calls for ‘immediate ceasefire’ Mao Ning, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, has urged all parties involved in the war to stop military operations after Trump threatened heavy strikes on Iran in the coming weeks. “Military means cannot fundamentally solve the problem, and the escalation of conflicts is not in the interests of either side,” Mao told a news conference, urging “the parties concerned to immediately cease military operations”. Speaking to reporters, the Foreign Ministry spokesperson said the root cause of turmoil in the Strait of Hormuz is illegal military actions, adding that all parties must seek to avoid a more serious impact on the world economy and energy security. |

Four Israeli soldiers killed during combat in south Lebanon The IDF says four military personnel have been killed in an incident during combat in southern Lebanon. Three of the soldiers - all in their 20s - have been named, while one has yet to be identified. It said another soldier was severely injured, and a reservist was moderately injured in the incident.

Iran warns sending photos to US or Israel is punishable by execution Asghar Jahangir, the spokesperson for Iran’s judiciary, says providing any information to the US or Israel could lead to death by execution. Under an enhanced espionage law passed last October, sending a photo or video to “hostile governments” is punishable by confiscation of all assets and death, Jahangir said in a statement carried by Iranian media. “When photos are taken of damaged areas, the enemy is informed that the target was located correctly,” Jahangir said, adding that “providing such information to the enemy is the same as cooperating with the enemy in intelligence”. As we’ve been reporting, Iran authorities earlier arrested two people accused of sending information to the US and Israel, and executed two others who allegedly participated in opposition activities. |

Iran 'posturing' in public but 'eager' to negotiate behind closed doors, White House says The White House press secretary says what's left of the regime in Iran is "increasingly eager" to negotiate with the US "while they still can", and that those talks are "going well". That contradicts what we heard from Tehran earlier today when the foreign ministry said US proposals to bring about an end to fighting are "unrealistic, illogical and excessive". Karoline Leavitt dismisses that as "posturing", however, saying the "remaining elements of the regime [are] increasingly eager to end the destruction and come to the negotiating table while they still can". Despite the "public posturing you hear from the regime and false reporting, talks are continuing and going well", she says. |
Rubio says status of Iran new supreme leader is uncertain Asked by Al Jazeera about his thoughts on Iran’s new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, Marco Rubio says his status remains unclear. “We don’t even know he’s in power. I know they say he’s in power. No one has seen him. No one has heard from him. It’s very opaque right now. It’s not quite clear how decisions are being made inside of Iran,” Rubio said. |
‘Weeks not months’ to finish war on Iran, says Marco Rubio The secretary of state says most of the United States’ military objectives in Iran will be wrapped up in the coming weeks and it won’t take months to finish the war. “We are well on our way to destroying the majority of their arms factories, and we’re well on our way to significantly degrading their missile launchers,” Rubio told Al Jazeera. “When those objectives are achieved, we will have achieved the purpose of this operation, and that’s something that’s not going to take months. That’s a matter of weeks. I’m not going to tell you exactly how many weeks.” |
UNIFIL says 2 peacekeepers killed in southern Lebanon The peacekeepers were killed when “an explosion of unknown origin destroyed their vehicle near Bani Hayyan”, according to a statement by the UN peacekeeping mission in Lebanon. “A third peacekeeper was severely injured and a fourth was also hurt,” it said. The latest deaths come less than a day after one Indonesian peacekeeper was killed in another explosion on Sunday. “Deliberate attacks on peacekeepers are grave violations of international humanitarian law and of Security Council Resolution 1701, and may constitute war crimes,” UNIFIL said, calling for an end to the violence. |
US ‘committed to finishing the job’ in Iran, says Marco Rubio The US secretary of state says the war on Iran was launched in order to protect the Middle East from turmoil and danger. “Imagine five years from now, or three years from now, when they had more missiles, more drones, what they would have been willing to do to their neighbours and to us, that was intolerable. That’s why this needed to be done,” Rubio told Al Jazeera. “Now the United States is committed to finishing the job. We’re working very closely with all of our allies… These are strong, stable countries in the region. These are our allies. These are our friends, and we’re going to continue to be there and support them as they face this onslaught.” |
US secretary of state accuses Iran of targeting Gulf energy infrastructure Rubio says it is crucial to destroy Iran’s missile and drone arsenal to prevent future strikes against its neighbours in the Middle East. “I think the best way to stability, given the people who are in charge in Iran, is to destroy the ability of Iran in the future to launch these missiles and these drones against their infrastructure and civilian populations,” the top US diplomat told Al Jazeera. “If you think about what they struck in the region – what has Iran gone after? It’s been energy infrastructure against countries that were not waging a war against them, but yet they went after these countries nonetheless,” Rubio added. “This is why they built these missiles and drones in the first place. But they’ve also attacked embassies, diplomatic facilities, which is unheard of. They’ve attacked airports, which is unheard of. This is what they’ve done, and this is a weakened Iran.” |
Lebanon says Israeli attacks kill more than 1,240 people since March 2 The Health Ministry says at least 1,247 people have been killed and 3,680 wounded since the start of Israel’s invasion of southern Lebanon and air strikes on March 2.

This is not the very recent one, though. But for those who want to know scores...have a look-see.

Iran has ‘appetite for negotiations’ but also apprehension Iran is eager to have talks and some sort of negotiations but on its own terms, says Mehran Kamrava, director of the Iranian studies unit at the Arab Center for Research and Policy Studies. “There is appetite, but there is also apprehension,” he told Al Jazeera, adding that Tehran is concerned that in a few months, the Americans, or more likely the Israelis, would attack again. |
No hazardous materials leak found after strike on Israel’s ADAMA plant: Report No leak of hazardous materials was found after Israel’s ADAMA, a maker of active ingredients and crop protection materials, says its Makhteshim plant in southern Israel was hit earlier by either an Iranian missile or debris. “After a thorough inspection, no concern was found for a leak of hazardous materials or a risk to the public,” Israeli media quoted Environmental Protection Minister Idit Silman as saying. “It was decided to open the roads and resume activity, including releasing workers from protection,” she added. For the resident terrorists jubilating earlier on, this news is coming from your own Al-Jazeera. ![]() |
