02.01.2025 โ‡ข New Orleans Terror and Tehran's Prisoner Game
โŒจThe morning began with confirmation of ISIS links in the New Orleans attack, where US veteran Shamsud-Din Jabbar killed 15 people. By afternoon, FBI investigations revealed connections between Jabbar and the perpetrator of a Tesla explosion in Las Vegas - both stationed at the same military base.

The Iranian detention of journalist Cecilia Sala entered a critical phase, with her phone calls revealing harsh prison conditions. Foreign Minister Tajani summoned Iran's ambassador, while PM Meloni held an urgent meeting at Palazzo Chigi. Tehran responded by linking Sala's release to Abedini's case, but Milan prosecutors rejected Abedini's house arrest request. The evening concluded with Meloni meeting Sala's mother, as diplomatic negotiations intensified.

Russian gas transit through Ukraine ceased completely, pushing prices above โ‚ฌ50/MWh, though Italian authorities assured sufficient alternative supplies.
