France: Man arrested in a museum for writing threatening message in Arabic

Jaishankar said in a post on X, "Appreciate the exchange of assessments today with FM Jean-Noël Barrot of France on the West Asia conflict. Look forward to continuing it in person."

The procession, which took place on Wednesday at Revolution Square and moved toward the Shrine of the Martyrs in southern Tehran, was attended by many residents joining the ceremony to pay tribute to those killed in the strikes.

Reports indicate a US missile strike hit a school in Khomeyn, central Iran. This comes as the IRGC vowed to "determine" the war's end, rejecting US claims of a "short-term excursion." Amid threats to global oil supplies, Russia and France are pursuing diplomatic and defensive measures to stabilise the region.

The United States on Friday conducted lethal kinetic operations against designated terrorist organisations within Ecuador on Friday, the US Southern Command shared on Saturday.

Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council Ali Larijani, on Thursday, issued a blistering rebuke of US President Donald Trump following the deadly strike on a school for girls in Minab, southern Iran, sharply criticising America's "peace through strength" doctrine and directly challenging the US narrative on freedom in Iran.
