Iran Will Never Be Allowed To Have A Nuclear Weapon – G7 Leaders The leaders of the Group of Seven (G7) nations have issued a strong joint statement reaffirming their opposition to Iran acquiring nuclear weapons and expressing unwavering support for Israel's right to self-defence, amid rising tensions in the Middle East. In a communique addressing recent developments between Israel and Iran, the G7 emphasized their commitment to peace and regional stability, while condemning Iran as the main source of instability and terrorism in the region. “We have been consistently clear that Iran can never have a nuclear weapon,” the G7 leaders declared. They also reiterated their support for Israel’s security, stating that the country has the right to defend itself, especially in light of persistent threats from Iran and its regional proxies. At the same time, the leaders stressed the need to protect civilians and called for a broader de-escalation of hostilities across the Middle East, particularly urging progress toward a ceasefire in Gaza. “We urge that the resolution of the Iranian crisis leads to a broader de-escalation, including a ceasefire in Gaza,” the statement read. The G7 also acknowledged the global economic implications of instability in the region, especially in relation to energy markets, and pledged to coordinate with international partners to safeguard market stability. “We will remain vigilant to the implications for international energy markets and stand ready to coordinate… to ensure stability,” they concluded. #G7 #Iran #NuclearWeapons #Israel #MiddleEast #GazaCeasefire #EnergySecurity #InternationalDiplomacy #Geopolitics #GlobalStability

Thousands Rally in Support of Tinubu, Alia in Benue Ahead of 2027 Elections Despite ongoing tensions and the lingering pain of Fulani herdsmen attacks in parts of Benue State, thousands of youths and women on Thursday staged a massive rally in Makurdi, voicing support for second terms for President Bola Tinubu and Governor Hyacinth Alia. The crowd, drawn from various pro-Tinubu/Alia support groups, marched through major streets of the state capital, singing, chanting, and waving banners in a show of loyalty and endorsement ahead of the 2027 general elections. Organisers described the rally as a demonstration of trust in the leadership style of both Tinubu and Alia, citing strides in governance, security, and social investment programs. “We believe in President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda and Governor Alia’s development strides in Benue. We want continuity,” a group leader said. However, the event sparked mixed reactions across the state. Critics argued the rally was poorly timed, especially as many communities are still reeling from the impact of Fulani herdsmen attacks, with displaced persons in camps and victims in hospitals. “This is not the time for celebration or campaigns. Families are still mourning. This insensitivity is deeply worrying,” a Makurdi resident said. Despite the controversy, supporters maintained that the rally was peaceful and intended to boost public confidence in the current administration’s direction. #Tinubu2027 #Alia2027 #BenueRally #Makurdi #BenuePolitics #ProTinubu #SupportAlia #NigeriaElections #YouthSupport #RenewedHope #BenueState

PDP Will Sort Itself Out, Saraki Tells Tinubu After Democracy Day Jab Former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has responded to President Bola Tinubu’s remarks about the internal divisions within opposition parties, acknowledging the challenges facing the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) but asserting that the party will resolve its issues without external help. Speaking to journalists shortly after the Democracy Day ceremony held at the National Assembly, Saraki reacted to Tinubu’s bold statement during his address where the president said: “It is a joy to see the opposition in disarray. For me, I will not say, try your best to put your house in order. I will not help you to do so, either.” President Tinubu also denied allegations of plotting a one-party state, insisting his administration respects the principles of multi-party democracy. In response, Saraki said: “I think we must take him at his word. He spoke well, saying he’s not for a one-party state. So we must take him at his word that he supports a multi-party system. We’re all on the same page with that.” The former Kwara State governor admitted that the PDP is facing internal turmoil, but insisted that the party is actively working on reconciliation and reorganisation: “We’re going around, bringing everybody back together. Those who say they are under pressure—there’s no pressure anymore. Everyone should get their house in order. As he (Tinubu) said, he’s not going to help us, so we’ll sort out our own house again.” Saraki’s comments come amid renewed efforts within the opposition coalition to rebuild ahead of the next general elections, as defections and leadership crises continue to shake the PDP and other rival parties. #Saraki #Tinubu #PDP #OppositionPolitics #DemocracyDay #APC #MultiPartyDemocracy #NigeriaPolitics #OnePartyState #PoliticalReform

MOSSAD’S SECRET DRONE BASE INSIDE IRAN EXPOSED IN DARING COVERT OPERATION — “RISING LION” A senior Israeli security source has revealed astonishing new details about Operation “Rising Lion” (Am KeLavi) — a multi-year, multi-agency covert mission carried out deep within Iranian territory by the Mossad, Israel Defense Forces (IDF), and Israel’s defense industries. 📍 Core of the Operation: The Mossad allegedly established a secret drone base inside central Iran, where explosive-laden UAVs were pre-positioned and later deployed in a surprise strike on Iran’s strategic missile infrastructure. 🔥 Key Highlights of the Mission: Drone Base Inside Iran: Explosive drones were smuggled and stored in Iran for months. They were used to destroy surface-to-surface missile launchers at the Esfajabad base near Tehran — a high-priority strategic target. Commando Infiltration: Mossad units allegedly infiltrated Iranian territory, pre-positioning guided weapons near air defense systems. These weapons were remotely activated during Israel’s air campaign, destroying SAM sites with pinpoint accuracy. Civilian Vehicle Weapon Systems: Israeli operatives embedded strike technologies inside civilian vehicles across Iran. These were remotely activated during the operation to target critical air defense installations, degrading Iran’s ability to respond. 🧠 Planning and Execution: The operation is said to have been in preparation for years, involving: Dossiers on Iranian nuclear scientists and defense officials. Covert assassinations and on-the-ground sabotage. Collaboration between Mossad, IDF Intelligence (Aman), and elite tech units. A senior Israeli source stated: “This mission required bold and sophisticated planning, groundbreaking strategic thinking, and intricate deception. It delivered a painful blow to Iran’s strategic capabilities and sent a crystal-clear message: Israel will not allow its enemies to acquire weapons of mass destruction.” 🌍 IMPLICATIONS: The revelation could heighten tensions in the Middle East, especially with Iran, already reeling from recent airstrikes. This marks one of the most sophisticated Israeli covert operations publicly revealed to date. It underscores Israel’s willingness to act far beyond its borders to neutralize perceived existential threats. #Israel #Mossad #Iran #CovertOperation #RisingLion #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #DroneWarfare #IDF #NuclearTensions #Tehran #Esfajabad #WMD #Security #Sabotage
