By Jack Phillips

In apparent defiance of White House warnings, Iran fired another missile on Wednesday from a launch pad in Tehran—the same place it had conducted another missile test last month, officials said.

Iran presidential contender Ahmadinejad sees no threat from US after Trump bombed ally Syria with cruise missiles

Ahmadinejad strikes a mostly conciliatory tone during interview

The controversial former president made the remarks to The Associated Press in his office in northern Tehran, three days after he stunned Iranians by registering to run for president again.

His surprise candidacy must still be approved by authorities but has already upended a race that was widely expected to be won by incumbent moderate Hassan Rouhani.


Like all candidates, the 60-year-old must be vetted and approved by a powerful constitutional watchdog known as the Guardian Council before he can ultimately run. It will announce its list of approved candidates by April 27.

Iran may try diplomacy but it could circumvent Trump sanctions with help from China and Russia

As President Trump promises renewed sanctions on Iran, the Middle Eastern country may first try diplomacy but could also seek help skirting U.S. sanctions from other parties to the deal, particularly Russia and China.

Iran also faces unrest at home, and the failed nuclear agreement is a strike against President Hassan Rouhani, raising concerns more hard-liners could force the restart of Iran's nuclear program.

Only about 300,000 barrels of Iranian oil may be forced off the market, with Europe cutting back less than it did in the prior round of sanctions and China possibly increasing its purchases.

by Patti Domm

After the move by Trump, companies would have 90 to 180 days to wind down existing contracts with Iranian companies.

"While Chinese compliance is probably a nonstarter, we do anticipate a high degree of cooperation from European, Japanese and South Korean corporates despite their host government's opposition to the U.S. move."

Iran fires rockets at Israeli army bases in Golan Heights

Military exchange follows Trump’s withdrawal from nuclear deal

According to the Israeli military, Iran’s Quds Force, the expeditionary unit of the Revolutionary Guards, launched 20 artillery rockets into the Golan Heights.

Israel said that some of the rockets were intercepted and shot down by its Iron Dome missile defence system.

A few got though and caused “some damage” to Israeli military installations but no casualties.

The Israeli army said it hit back by striking “dozens” of Iranian sites in Syria, targeting intelligence, storage and logistics as well as the origin of the rockets.

US ambassador to Germany, Richard Grenell said that German companies doing business in Iran “should wind down operations immediately” before sanctions were reinstated in 90 days.

France said that the European Union was ready to take the US to the World Trade Organisation if Washington went ahead with plans to hit European companies. The WTO can be asked to settle disputes among members and allow them to impose sanctions.

Another proposal being considered is an EU “blocking regulation” of the kind used in 1996 to deny legal status to US sanctions on European companies doing business with Libya, Cuba and Iran.

Israeli Airstrike In Syria Was “Most Extensive Attack In Decades”

by TYLER DURDEN

Some 28 Israeli aircraft fired around 60 air-to-surface missiles at Syria during the exchange.

Israel also launched roughly 10 surface-to-surface missiles, which struck military targets near Damascus and in Southern Syria.

The Golan Heights is widely seen as Israeli-occupied territory after it was taken from Syria during the 1967 Six-Day War.
