Iran Regime Fails to Carry out Post Flood Reconstruction in Ravaged Western Province
A member of the Iranian Regime’s parliament said that post flood reconstruction had not been started in the western province of Kermanshah.

Khamenei had Role in Recent UAE, Saudi Terrorist Attacks
Hossein Shahroudi, the regime’s Friday prayers’ imam of Sanandaj, acknowledged that drone attacks targeting oil facilities in Saudi Arabia and the sabotage attacks targeting oil tankers off the coast of the United Arab Emirates were carried out by the Iranian regime and directed specifically by the regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
Friday prayer imams in cities and towns across Iran are known as Khamenei’s personal representatives.
Shahroudi stated: “A bomb exploded in a military base in Tel Aviv. What happened? What are these incidents, all one after another? Everyone denied it. These things do not happen on their own.

In a tweet, Bolton said the Iranian regime has been spending its resources on supporting terror "resulting in economic problems that will only get worse". He added that President Donald Trump has offered a way out for Iran if they agree to negotiate.
But Bolton added that Tehran must first end its support for "terror".

After a three-year-long transfer process, some 3,000 MEK members are safely housed in special accommodation in Tirana, provided by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees.
