Iranian Majles Deputy Speaker Hamid-Reza Haj Babaei: Iran Suspended Its Cooperation with the IAEA, There Will Be No Limit on Production, Research, or Missile Power; Grossi Is a 'Terror Mastermind,' IA
Iranian Majles Deputy Speaker Hamid-Reza Haj Babaei discussed the Majles vote to suspend all cooperation with the IAEA in a June 25, 2025 interview on IRINN TV (Iran). Dressed in combat uniform, Babaei called IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi a 'terror mastermind' and claimed that every IAEA inspector who came to Iran was a spy, alleging they had chips in their shoes that recorded everything. He stated that it was NATO, not Israel, that fought Iran for 12 days. Babaei said that from now on, inspection cameras would show only a black screen, and all inspections would be prohibited. He added that Iran would produce and research as much as it wants, with no ceiling. He also stated that Iran's missiles should now be ten times more powerful, along with its air defenses.

Hamas: ceasefire conditions report completely false
On Sunday, Hamas denounced recent media claims about its alleged conditions for a ceasefire in Gaza as a 'blatant fabrication' that misrepresents its official stance and serves Israeli interests. In a statement, the Palestinian group denied the details circulated by Sky News Arabia —which cited an unnamed Palestinian source—describing them as 'completely unfounded.' The report claimed Hamas demanded guarantees to protect its political leadership abroad, safeguard external assets, and secure a role in post-war Gaza. 'These lies contradict our clear, public positions,' Hamas said, asserting that its 'demands are never conveyed through anonymous leaks," and accusing the outlet of fueling incitement against the Palestinian resistance and attempting to distract from ongoing Israeli military operations. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump, who previously predicted an agreement could be reached within a week, called on Sunday for an immediate halt to the fighting. 'MAKE THE DEAL IN GAZA. GET THE HOSTAGES BACK!!! DJT,' he wrote on Truth Social.

The attack had occurred on June 22, damaging multiple buildings inside the high-security facility, including the clinic, engineering wing, and visitation hall, according to Tasnim News Agency.

Judiciary spokesperson Asghar Jahangir called the incident 'a fully-fledged crime,' adding that casualties included civilians living near the site and family members visiting inmates at the time. Meanwhile, judiciary sources denied claims that Evin's warden, Hedayatollah Farzadi, had prior knowledge of the attack and escaped, confirming that he was inside one of the prison wards with a visiting delegation during the strike.
