Iran installs new war chiefs as Tehran signals \u2018prolonged confrontation,\u2019 expert warns<\/h4>\n

By Emma Bussey<\/a> <\/span> <\/em>Fox News<\/em><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei<\/a> formally appointed six senior military commanders Monday, cementing a wartime reshuffle as Tehran rebuilds a command structure impacted by months of U.S. and Israeli strikes.<\/p>\n

The appointments, announced by Khamenei\u2019s office and promoted on social media, fill posts across Iran\u2019s armed forces, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the Basij paramilitary force, with a counterterrorism expert warning the timing and language of the decrees signal Tehran is preparing for “prolonged confrontation” and not a settlement with Washington.<\/p>\n

“Strategically, the announcements made were issued in English, on X, while Iranian and Omani negotiators finalize the coordinates of a proposed shipping route through Hormuz<\/a>, which is deliberate sequencing,” Dr. Omar Mohammed<\/a>, director of the Antisemitism Research Initiative at…Read more here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s president blames foreign pressure as expert warns regime’s economy nears breaking point<\/h4>\n

By Efrat Lachter<\/a> <\/span> <\/em>Fox News<\/em><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Reports of Iranians stealing bread, cheese, meat and other basic groceries are fueling concerns that the country\u2019s worsening economic crisis is pushing households toward a breaking point.<\/p>\n

An investigation published Wednesday<\/a> by the Iranian newspaper Jahan-e Sanat described supermarket workers encountering customers who allegedly concealed inexpensive food items or ate packaged products inside stores without paying. The accounts are anecdotal and do not establish the national prevalence of food theft, but analysts say they reflect the mounting pressure created by inflation<\/a>, currency depreciation and collapsing purchasing power.<\/p>\n

“These are anecdotal, but they align with hard data,” Miad Maleki, an associate fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“Iran is already inside the tipping zone,” Maleki said. “But a genuine \u2018tipping point\u2019…Read more here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s unseen supreme leader becomes weapon in escalating power struggle, experts say<\/h4>\n

By Efrat Lachter<\/a> <\/span> <\/em>Fox News<\/em><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Iran\u2019s rival political factions are increasingly invoking the authority of Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei<\/a> to attack their opponents and protect their own positions, even as questions persist over whether he is actively governing the country, according to an Iran expert.<\/p>\n

The internal struggle surfaced in two reports published by Iran International concerning Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian\u2019s relationship with the new supreme leader.<\/p>\n

In the first report, senior cleric Mohammad-Bagher Kharrazi, a relative of the Khamenei family by marriage, claimed Pezeshkian had repeatedly threatened to resign and was warned that his next resignation would be accepted.<\/p>\n

“If he resigns one more time, I will approve it,” Kharrazi quoted Khamenei as saying. Read more here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Holy Land battle: Solomon’s Pools become flashpoint in fight over Israel’s biblical heritage<\/h4>\n

By Amelie Botbol<\/a> <\/span> <\/em>Fox News<\/em><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Built more than 2,000 years ago to supply Jerusalem with water, Solomon’s Pools have become the center of a modern political dispute, with officials from the nearby Israeli town of Efrat accusing the Palestinian Authority of allowing the historic site<\/a> to deteriorate after it was placed under Ramallah’s jurisdiction following the 1993 Oslo Accords.<\/p>\n

Most archaeologists date the construction of Solomon’s Pools, three ancient reservoirs located between Efrat and Bethlehem, south of Israel’s capital, to the Hasmonean period in the second century B.C. The reservoirs were built to supply water<\/a> to Jerusalem during the Second Temple period. Herod the Great (37\u20134 B.C.) later expanded the system to provide water to his palace-fortress at Herodium.<\/p>\n

“Solomon’s Pools are not only the history of the Jewish people<\/a> in the Land of Israel and the source of Jerusalem’s living water, but also the future of Efrat in our ability to exercise…Read more here.<\/a><\/p>\n
