BREAKING: The US is attacking Iran right now and lying about it. War crimes in progress.

🎤 Whisper Transcript (en) ⏱ 175s

"be seeing diplomacy? What we know is that the U.S. has always maintained that there is the possibility of taking action against Iran should it need to be defensive in nature. What we know, though, is that the U.S. military has been maintaining that while there is this sort of posture at the ready, there is also, my apologies, a really loud thunderstorm and lightning storm going on behind us right now. You probably saw that. What we do know is that there is, in fact, opening for diplomacy that has been left in place by the White House, Donald Trump showing his exasperation as he spoke on Air Force One on Wednesday evening. But at the same time, what I can tell you is that while the U.S. president may be exasperated, he has left open the possibility for there to be further negotiations or talks in being conducted by his Middle East envoys, Jared Kushner, as well as Steve Witkoff. OK, Kimberly, we're going to let you get in out of the rain there. But for now, thanks very much indeed, Kimberly Hawkins at the White House. Well, I'll just say there's a mark on what the other has more from Tehran. The explosions also were reportedly heard in the Kunarak port city, which is home to strategic naval and military assets. This comes after the latest spate of attacks, the U.S. airstrikes that targeted several locations in five Iranian provinces and caused dozens of deaths and injuries, including civilians and military individuals, according to the health ministry. The attacks also earlier targeted the Bush hour power nuclear power plant. Now the government here portrays this as another dangerous escalation by Washington and the foreign ministry considers it a violation of international law and of Iran's sovereignty. Now the timing is particularly significant because this comes on the day the burial ceremony of the late slain leader, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been taking place in the city of Mashhad. So the political establishment here wants to frame this, the airstrikes by U.S. forces and the burial of the late supreme leader who was killed by an American airstrike back in February. So it wants to highlight the narrative that the political establishment will continue with response and will continue with resistance."
