The people of the Middle East “cannot endure another cycle of destruction, and yet we now risk descending into a rathole of retaliation after retaliation,” U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres told the Security Council. “To avoid it, diplomacy must prevail,” he said, urging a return to negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program.
 
Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, thanked President Trump in a news briefing on Sunday. He said the U.S. strikes on Iran overnight “inflicted major damage on Fordo,” referring to the key underground nuclear site. He said Israel was “very close” to achieving its goals of removing the nuclear and ballistic threats Iran poses to Israel, but suggested more remains to be done. “When the goals have been achieved, the operation will be completed and fighting will end,” he added.
 
The Iranian foreign minister said on Sunday that he was heading to Russia to meet with President Vladimir V. Putin on Monday, as Iran weighed a response to a wave of U.S. strikes on its nuclear sites.

There was little sign that Russia was prepared to provide military assistance to Iran, its closest remaining Middle East ally, as it prioritized its own war against Ukraine. Iran has not received concrete support from any allies through 10 days of war with Israel and, now, an attack by the United States, leaving the country more isolated than it has been in decades.
 
US asked China to politic w Iran so they don’t close the Strait of Hormitz or however you spell it
I hope they shut that shit down. I wonder how many people Israel and the US coupling is radicalizing against them in real time. 🤔

The nuclear nonproliferation treaty raised by several speakers during this U.N. Security Council session went into effect in 1970. Its aspirations were to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and technology and to make advances toward disarmament, and though 191 countries have joined, its reach remains somewhat limited. Israel, which has nuclear weapons, is one of five countries — joining India, Pakistan, North Korea and South Sudan — that is not a signatory to the treaty. And Iran, which is, threatened to withdraw this week after the I.A.E.A. accused it of failing to comply with its obligations.
 
The last of the more than a dozen B-2 bombers that took part in the strikes against three Iranian nuclear sites have returned safely to Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, a U.S. official said on Sunday. Several of the jets flew west as a ruse, allowing the seven planes carrying 30,000-pound bombs to fly undetected on an easterly route through Europe. The planes’ round-trip flights took up to 37 hours, the official said.
 
After several Trump cabinet members stressed no interest in regime change in Iran this morning, the president sounded more intrigued in a Truth Social post on Sunday afternoon: “It’s not politically correct to use the term, ‘Regime Change,’ but if the current Iranian Regime is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN, why wouldn’t there be a Regime change??? MIGA!!!” he wrote.

The biggest question facing global energy markets is whether Iran will respond to the U.S. bombing of its nuclear facilities by disrupting the flow of oil and natural gas in the Persian Gulf region.

The economic toll would be steep, including for Iran. That is because a large portion of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas, or L.N.G., passes through the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway that hugs a portion of Iran’s southern border.
