Iran orders closure of Strait of Hormuz — putting one-fifth of world’s oil supply at risk
Iran’s parliament has voted to close the Strait of Hormuz, the vital shipping channel through which around 20% of the world’s daily oil flows.
The move, which could block $1 billion in oil shipments per day, is likely to send oil prices soaring.
Brent crude oil, the international standard, jumped 3.9% to $80 a barrel on Sunday, while US crude rose 4.3% to $77 a barrel.
The conflict between Israel and Iran has sent oil prices yo-yoing over the past week, which has in turn caused see-saw moves for the U.S. stock market, because of rising and ebbing fears that the war could disrupt the global flow of crude. Iran is a major producer of oil and also sits on the narrow Strait of Hormuz, through which much of the world’s crude passes.
It will come into effect pending a final decision by Iran’s Supreme Council.
The Supreme Council’s decision must be made by tonight, according to Iran’s state-run Press TV.
Israeli Gedoilim Declare Time to Say Hallel, Drop Tachanun After Historic U.S. Airstrikes on Iran
Two prominent Israeli rabbis have urged Jews to alter their daily prayers in response to the recent U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.
Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, Chief Rabbi of Safed, announced that the traditional tachanun prayer should be omitted. Instead, he called for reciting a prayer of thanks (mizmor letodah) and recited the blessing Hatov metiv, used to mark joyous occasions shared by a community. Rabbi Eliyahu also quoted a verse from the Book of Esther foretelling the downfall of enemies plotting against the Jewish people.
Meanwhile, renowned kabbalist Rabbi Nir Ben Artzi encouraged Jews to recite the Hallel prayer, a series of psalms traditionally said on Jewish holidays to praise God. Ben Artzi, who has a large following in Israel, described the U.S. strikes as a “miracle” worthy of praise. He had previously predicted Israeli actions against Iran’s nuclear program earlier this year.
The U.S. strikes targeted key Iranian sites, including the heavily fortified Fordow facility—damage to which had previously eluded Israeli forces.
Rabbi Offers Biblical Lesson to Pope
Following Pope Leo’s recent appeal for peace amid the U.S. airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, Orthodox Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt offered a pointed biblical response, drawing from the Old Testament to underscore the complex nature of conflict and peace.
The Pope had tweeted: “War does not solve problems; on the contrary, it amplifies them and inflicts deep wounds on the history of peoples, which take generations to heal. No armed victory can compensate for the pain of mothers, the fear of children, or stolen futures. May diplomacy silence the weapons! May nations chart their futures with works of peace, not with violence and bloodstained conflicts!”

New details on US strikes & how Iran was fooled revealed
The IDF continues to strike targets in Iran. This afternoon, it was reported that a Revolutionary Guards base in the Yazd area of central Iran, about 1,800 km from Israel, was attacked. This is one of the most distant targets that Israel has struck in Iran so far.
Meanwhile, The Wall Street Journal revealed further behind-the-scenes details of the decision-making process within the White House.
A senior American official shared with the newspaper the discussions among senior officials prior to the strike. "There was a real debate earlier this week about what should be done, but Trump signaled on Tuesday that he was inclined to go for it, and that changed everything," the official said. "The goal was to create a situation that no one would expect," he stated, hinting that it was an American deception tactic.
After the strike last night, an American official told the newspaper that the Trump administration reached out to Iran and clarified that the attack was a "one-time issue" and not part of a war aimed at regime change.
A satellite image revealed this afternoon the damage caused to the entrance of the site and to the mountain beneath it. In Israel, it is believed that the enriched uranium was stored at the Isfahan facility, which was also attacked by the Americans last night. It is still unclear whether the uranium was destroyed or simply buried under the rubble. The AP news agency released a satellite image showing the damage at Fordow following the American strike. Analysis of the image indicates that damage was caused to the outer compound and the mountain beneath which the facility is located.
The U.S. military attacked the three largest and most important nuclear facilities in Iran overnight using a massive amount of explosives. The attack was carried out in a combined air and sea operation, and estimates suggest that it caused significant damage.
Six B-2 "Spirit" strategic bombers departed yesterday on an exceptionally long 37-hour flight from Missouri, USA, dropping 12 GBU-57 bombs on the fortified nuclear site on the mountainside at Fordow, and two more on the enrichment facility at Natanz, which had already been attacked by Israel.
The bombers are capable of carrying up to 18 tons of payload and can fly up to 11,000 km without refueling. The MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator) is the most powerful non-nuclear bunker-busting bomb. According to reports, U.S. Navy submarines launched 30 Tomahawk BGM-109 cruise missiles with a range of 450 km at the nuclear sites in Natanz and Isfahan. In addition to the Tomahawks, a B-2 bomber dropped two bunker-busting bombs on the underground nuclear facility at Natanz. According to reports in the U.S., it is estimated that the nuclear facility at Fordow was destroyed or at least severely damaged.
The US attack on Iran step-by-step
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Dan Caine, in a briefing to the press at the Pentagon on Sunday, went into detail about the successful covert military operation targeting Iranian nuclear infrastructure.
Dubbed Operation Midnight Hammer, the mission struck three nuclear facilities inside Iran. Gen. Caine described the strike as "deliberate and precise," emphasizing the exceptional coordination and professionalism exhibited by US joint forces in what he characterized as a "complex and high-risk mission."
The objective, according to Caine, was to severely degrade Iran's nuclear weapons infrastructure. He noted that the operation was planned and carried out across multiple domains and theaters, showcasing the US military's global reach and precision.
"Very few people in Washington knew about the timing and nature of the plan," Caine stated.
The operation commenced at midnight on Friday into Saturday morning, with a large B-2 bomber strike package departing from the continental United States. A portion of the formation flew westward toward the Pacific as a decoy, a deception maneuver known only to a select group of planners and key officials in Washington and Tampa.
The main strike force, consisting of seven B-2 Spirit Bombers, flew eastward under radio silence, conducting several in-flight refuelings over the course of the 18-hour journey to the target area.

Released by a Jewish Judge Pro-Hamas protester Mahmoud Khalil says he’ll keep advocating for Palestine, while bashing US government
Anti-Israel protester Mahmoud Khalil said he plans to continue his pro-Palestinian advocacy and bashed the US government upon landing in New Jersey Saturday on his way home to New York City after being held in a Louisiana detention facility for three months.
“I just want to go back and just continue the work that I was already doing, advocating for Palestinian rights – speech that should actually be celebrated rather than punished, as this administration wants to do,” Khalil said Saturday at a press conference at Newark Liberty International Airport.
Khalil, 30, was arrested by federal immigration authorities on March 8 and spent 104 days at the rural detention center as the Trump administration fought to deport the Syrian-born permanent resident.
He also vowed to keep fighting for the rights of the “incredible men” he left behind in the Louisiana immigration facility.
Khalil was joined at Newark by his wife, Dr. Noor Abdalla, 28, their son, who was born during his detainment, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).
“Because Mahmoud Khalil is an advocate for Palestinian human rights, he has been accused, baselessly, of horrific allegations, simply because the Trump administration and our overall establishment disagrees with his political speech,” Ocasio-Cortez told reporters.
“We will continue to resist the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in,” she added.
Khalil was released on bail Friday after New Jersey US District Judge Michael Farbiarz ruled Friday that the government had “clearly not met” the standards for detention.
Farbiarz said it was “highly, highly unusual” for the government to continue detaining a legal resident who was unlikely to flee and hadn’t been accused of violence.
Khalil was released on conditions including the surrender of his passport and travel restrictions limiting him to New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Washington, DC, and Louisiana, where his immigration proceedings will continue, according to reports.
Khalil’s lawyers on Saturday called the decision a “significant and important victory.”
Khamenei picks ‘3 stooges’ to replace him as fear of assassination surges
Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has chosen a secret list of three potential successors if he succumbs to the same fate as his growing list of valued lieutenants — another handful of whom were killed in overnight Israeli strikes Saturday.
Khamenei, 86, the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader since 1989, believes that either Israel or the US will try to kill him and crafted the list while holed up in a bunker, ordering his nation’s Assembly of Experts — the clerical body responsible for appointing the supreme leader — to choose from his handpicked pool should his enemies be successful, officials told The New York Times.
