Iran has no ceasefire with US, MP says

Jun 7, 2026, 08:16 GMT+1

Iran has no ceasefire with the United States, a lawmaker said on Sunday and warned that a new war could break out.

“This is a fact that we do not have a ceasefire with America. In reality, we are in a pause in the fighting,” Vahid Ahmadi, a member of Iran parliament’s national security and foreign policy committee said.

Referring to recent clashes in southern Iran, he said Washington was trying to test Iran’s military readiness.

He said “there is a possibility of a new war” and that Iran had new capabilities on the way.

Jun 7, 2026, 07:27 GMT+1

British Airways warned that fares would rise further as the Iran war continued to disrupt jet fuel supplies, the Financial Times reported on Sunday.

“There’s no getting away from if fuel goes up, fares have to go up,” Chief Executive Sean Doyle said in an interview on the sidelines of the International Air Transport Association’s annual meeting in Rio de Janeiro.

Jet fuel prices have doubled since the war began in February and the Strait of Hormuz remained closed, disrupting a passage that accounts for about 40% of Europe’s jet fuel, according to the report.

Israeli journalist questions US spying claims amid Iran war fallout

Jun 7, 2026, 01:42 GMT+1

Israeli journalist Yossi Melman on Saturday said that recent reports about Israeli intelligence activity against the United States should be viewed in the context of internal US political dynamics surrounding the war with Iran.

“Israel’s intelligence agencies, to my knowledge, stopped targeting US soil and American individuals after the Jonathan Pollard affair,” he posted on X.

Melman rejected the idea that recent reporting reflects a shift in Israeli intelligence behavior, arguing instead that the claims are being shaped by competing narratives within Washington. He framed the issue as part of a broader political dispute over responsibility for and fallout from the Iran conflict.

Iran's national soccer team departed from Turkey for its training base in Mexico on Saturday ahead of the 2026 World Cup, while several federation officials and support staff were reportedly still awaiting US visas, according to the Associated Press.

AP reported that visa processing issues had previously prompted Iran to move its training base from Tucson, Arizona, to Tijuana, Mexico, near the US border, amid complications stemming from the ongoing conflict involving Iran.
