Iranian Media: Iran Carries Out Wide-ranging Strikes on US and Israeli Targets

Iran's UN Mission: Allegation of Iran Blocking the Strait of Hormuz Unfounded
On March 5 local time, Iran’s Permanent Mission to the United Nations issued a social media post refuting claims that Iran blocked the Strait of Hormuz, calling the allegations baseless and completely absurd.
Iran has consistently abided by international law and upheld freedom of navigation, the mission emphasized.
The post also accused the U.S. of being the real threat to maritime security: Just yesterday, the Iranian frigate *Jamaran* — on a naval visit to India with 130 sailors aboard — was unjustly sunk by a U.S. submarine in international waters roughly 2,000 miles from Iran’s coast. Over 100 sailors were killed in the attack.
“This reckless act violates fundamental principles of international law and freedom of navigation,” the mission stated.

Trump: Must be Personally Involved in Iran Succession Plan, Rejects Khamenei's Son as Supreme Leader
On March 6, former President Donald Trump said in a Thursday interview that he believes he needs to personally weigh in on choosing Iran’s next leader—drawing a parallel to his approach in Venezuela, per AXIOS.
Trump noted Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the assassinated top Iranian leader, is the most likely successor—but emphasized he finds that outcome unacceptable. The Iranian regime has delayed announcing the Supreme Leader’s successor for days, though statements from Iranian political figures Thursday hinted an announcement could come soon.
“They’re wasting time. Khamenei’s son is a nobody,” Trump said. “I have to get involved in the appointment process like I did with Diosdado Cabello in Venezuela.” He added he will not accept any new Iranian leader who continues Khamenei’s policies, warning that would force the U.S. to “go back to war within five years.” (Golden Finance)
