- Iran conducts a missile drill, what does it mean?
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahuis seeking a meeting with President Donald Trump as Israeli officials warn that recent Iranian missile drills could be used as cover for a surprise attack, raising fresh urgency around Tehran’s nuclear ambitions and military posture ahead of the expected Dec. 29 talks.

- Speaking Monday at the Israel Institute for National Security conference, Huckabee said Trump has maintained a consistent red line on Iran. "All I can do is point out to you what the president has said repeatedly, and he consistently has said Iran is never going to enrich uranium, and they’re not going to have a nuclear weapon," he said. (Fox News)
- Iran claims that Bondi Beach was an inside job!
- Iranianmilitary chief Maj.-Gen. Abdolrahim Mousavi claimed that Israel plotted the Bondi Beach terror attack last week as a "false flag" in order to build sympathy as "victims of antisemitism" during a speech at a military ceremony on Sunday.
- The "Zionist regime... assassinated the Jewish community and its dependents in other countries to make them look like victims," Mousavi accused. "This is not their first time, and they have committed such crimes many times."
- "In the last few days, the Zionist regime has committed suicide to prevent reverse migration, to save itself from internal turmoil, and to instill antisemitism," he added.
- The military chief, in a separate statement on Sunday, also referred to Iran's need to enhance its air defense capabilities, stating that this is one of the country's priorities, state media outlet IRNA reported. (Jerusalem Post)
