Trump backs Bibi again, says Netanyahu corruption trial a 'political witch hunt'
US President Donald Trump has once again backed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu amid the ongoing corruption trial against him. Taking to Truth Social on Sunday, the US president called the trials against the Likud leader "a political witch hunt." This is not the first time Trump has backed Netanyahu and called for the cancellation of the corruption trial against the Israeli prime minister.(AP) Trump further slammed prosecutors for their "terrible trial" against Bibi Netanyahu. "He is a War Hero, and a Prime Minister who did a fabulous job working with the United States to bring Great Success in getting rid of the dangerous Nuclear threat in Iran," he wrote on Truth Social. "How is it possible that the Prime Minister of Israel can be forced to sit in a Courtroom all day long, over NOTHING (Cigars, Bugs Bunny Doll, etc.). It is a POLITICAL WITCH HUNT, very similar to the Witch Hunt that I was forced to endure. This travesty of 'Justice' will interfere with both Iran and Hamas negotiations. In other words, it is INSANITY doing what the out-of-control prosecutors are doing to Bibi Netanyahu. The United States of America spends Billions of Dollar a year, far more than on any other Nation, protecting and supporting Israel. We are not going to stand for this. We just had a Great Victory with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu at the helm — And this greatly tarnishes our Victory. LET BIBI GO, HE'S GOT A BIG JOB TO DO!" Trump added further. This is not the first time Trump has slammed the trial against Netanyahu. Last week, Trump issued a similar statement after the ceasefire between Israel and Iran was implemented. What is the case against Netanyahu? Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is facing multiple corruption charges. The cases, first filed in 2019, allege the Israeli leader of bribery, fraud and breach of trust. If found guilty, Netanyahu could face up to 10 years in prison. Under Case 1000, Netanyahu and his wife Sara have been accused of receiving lavish gifts worth $192,000 from businessmen in exchange for political favours. For Case 2000, Netanyahu has been accused of breach of trust by striking a deal with Arnon Moses, the owner of the daily newspaper, for favourable coverage to limit the growth of political rival - Israel Hayom. In Case 4000, Netanyahu has been accused of granting favours, such as mergers and financial gains, to Israeli telecom company Bezeq to ensure positive coverage of him and his wife on the news website controlled by the former chairman of the company. Netanyahu has denied all charges against him and described the allegations as a "witch hunt" against him.

‘We call on Iran to provide for safety of IAEA personnel': US state secretary Marco Rubio
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Saturday (US local time) said that Iran must ensure the safety and provide security to the International Atomic Energy Agency personnel. Marco Rubio wrote in a post on X, 'We support the IAEA's critical verification and monitoring efforts in Iran."(AFP) In a post on X, Rubio said, "Calls in Iran for the arrest and execution of IAEA Director General Grossi are unacceptable and should be condemned." He added, 'We support the IAEA's critical verification and monitoring efforts in Iran and commend the Director General and the IAEA for their dedication and professionalism. We call on Iran to provide for the safety and security of IAEA personnel.' Earlier this week, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, in his first public remarks since a ceasefire, said Iran had "slapped America in the face" by launching missiles at a major US base in Qatar in retaliation for American strikes on nuclear facilities at Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz. Trump had said Khamenei's remarks, which he described as "a statement of anger, hatred, and disgust", prompted him to halt talks on lifting sanctions and other diplomatic efforts that could have aided Iran's recovery. Al Jazeera further reported that Trump made similar bellicose remarks earlier during a White House news conference, where he confirmed he would "without question, absolutely" consider new air strikes if Iran's nuclear programme had not been dismantled. Iran's response to the strikes has included suspending cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Friday that Iran may reject any requests from the agency to inspect nuclear sites, calling Director General Rafael Grossi's insistence on visits "meaningless and possibly even malign in intent." No IAEA inspections have taken place since June 13, when Israel began bombing Iranian facilities, Al Jazeera reported.

Bunker-buster bombs ‘ineffective' against Iran's Isfahan nuclear facility; Top US general reveals why
The U.S. military deliberately avoided using bunker-buster bombs on Iran's Isfahan nuclear complex because the site's extreme depth rendered the weapons ineffective, Joint Chiefs Chair Gen. Dan Caine confirmed in a classified Senate briefing. Isfahan's underground facilities reportedly store 60% of Iran's enriched uranium, critical for bomb development, buried beyond the reach of America's GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators (MOPs). Instead, submarines launched Tomahawk missiles to strike surface structures. The disclosure, first reported by CNN, underscores tactical limitations against Iran's fortified sites. While B-2 stealth bombers dropped 14 bunker-busters on the shallower Fordow and Natanz facilities, Isfahan's geology demanded alternative tactics. CIA Director John Ratcliffe noted that most of Iran's nuclear material remains concentrated at Isfahan and Fordow, amplifying strategic concerns about untouched uranium reserves. The decision highlights a stark gap between military capabilities and presidential rhetoric. Despite President Trump's claims that strikes "obliterated" Iran's nuclear program, an early Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) assessment concluded core facilities survived, setting back enrichment only "by months." Satellite imagery analyzed by weapons expert Jeffrey Lewis showed vehicles near Isfahan's tunnels days before the strike, with entrances reopened by June 27, suggesting uranium may have been moved. Technical analyses further indicate bunker-busters would have failed: Fordow's 90-meter depth exceeds the MOP's 25-meter penetration in medium-strength rock. At Isfahan, even 30,000-pound bombs couldn't reach chambers housing centrifuges. "Annihilated is too strong," conceded IAEA chief Rafael Grossi, though he acknowledged "enormous damage" to above-ground infrastructure. Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy told CNN on Thursday night, after receiving the briefing, that some of Iran's facilities 'are so far underground that we can never reach them. So they have the ability to move a lot of what has been saved into areas where there's no American bombing capacity that can reach it.' Republican lawmakers emerged from briefings acknowledging uranium stocks likely endure but defended the mission's scope. 'There is enriched uranium in the facilities that moves around, but that was not the intent or the mission,' Republican Rep. Michael McCaul of Texas was quoted as telling CNN. 'My understanding is most of it's still there. So we need a full accounting. That's why Iran has to come to the table directly with us, so the (International Atomic Energy Agency) can account for every ounce of enriched uranium that's there. I don't think it's going out of the country, I think it's at the facilities,' McCaul continued. However, White House assertions clash with intelligence: Trump insisted "nothing was moved" pre-strike, despite DIA evidence of relocations and Israel's assessment of a "significant hit" (not total destruction).
