Throughout the day, Iranian media extensively reported on US actions against Venezuela, with President Trump issuing a directive for a "complete and total blockade" against sanctioned oil tankers and designating the Venezuelan regime as a foreign terrorist organization. This directive was consistently highlighted across multiple outlets from morning through the early afternoon, including VOA Persian, BBC Persian, and Radio Farda.
Concurrently, there was significant focus on Iran's nuclear program. Deputy Foreign Minister Araqchi's statements affirming Iran's right to uranium enrichment and continued defense cooperation with Russia were widely covered. Later in the evening, reports emerged of a significant reshuffle in Iran's military leadership, with the Supreme Leader replacing two high-ranking army commanders, including the Air Force commander, as reported by Radio Farda and Kayhan London.
