French President Macron has condemned the Islamic Republic’s state violence against protesters, denouncing the targeting of brave Iranians demanding their rights. Meanwhile, AFP reports non-essential French embassy staff have already left Iran amid rising tensions and potential US strikes.


The Wall Street Journal reports the White House is weighing Iran’s offer for nuclear talks, though Trump leans toward military strikes. A faction led by Vance is urging him to try diplomacy first. However, officials say Trump may choose to strike Iran and pursue negotiations afterward.

Israeli officials told Channel 12 there is close coordination with Washington on Iran, and they expect advance notice of any Trump decision. They warned the US that Tehran may be using talks to stall and avoid a strike. Meanwhile, Iran’s defense minister threatened “devastating surprises” and vowed to target any country aiding an attack on its interests.


Footage reportedly from Isfahan tonight shows a large fire, though the cause remains unclear. The clip is shared with the caption: “January 12, Isfahan, fight for the Shah, faith, and homeland against the demonic occupiers.”

There is no confirmation yet on what was set ablaze.



The White House says airstrikes are among the options Trump is considering on Iran, but diplomacy remains his top priority. “What you hear publicly from the Iranian regime differs significantly from the messages we receive privately,” spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said, adding Trump is interested in exploring those channels.


Ukraine is set to receive its first Lynx KF41 infantry fighting vehicle as early as the beginning of 2026. A contract to this effect was signed in December 2025. The order value for the first five combat vehicles is in the mid double-digit million euro range, with the systems being financed by Germany.

This is reported by the press office of Rheinmetall.

Oggi un collega si lamentava del fatto che nonostante si fosse vaccinato gli era venuta la febbre e le sue ferie erano andate male.
Purtroppo la vaccinazione non è una garanzia assoluta di stare bene e comunque chissà cos'altro è riuscito a prendere.
Un altro collega (terrapiattista, no-vax, pro-Putin, complottista) che ascoltava ha iniziato a scuotere la testa e borbottare. Poi si è messo a parlare di 5G e centri commerciali. Ero indeciso se ridere o mandarlo a cagare...


il fatto che alcuni italiani siano stati scarcerati (finalmente!) in Venezuela sulla base di una decisione del capo di governo venezuelano dovrebbe dirla lunga sulla mancanza di separazione dei poteri e sul controllo del sistema giudiziario da parte dell'esecutivo, a chi guarda a quel paese come faro delle speranze popolari

@Kingu Because 45-50% are happy or at least fine with what's happening? So there's an upper limit on the potential amount of protesters.

Interessante pezzo d'opinione de #ilpost da parte di una persona che, trasferitasi a #Milano, ha scelto la #bicicletta per spostarsi, per ragioni concrete (costi, praticità...) e non ideologici.

La rivoluzione promessa da Pisapia non c'è stata e la realtà è fatta di piccoli-grandi soprusi quotidiani da parte di chi pensa di avere il diritto di calpestare gli altri.

Ma tante persone in città non di arrendono, e l'attivismo fa quello che può, cercando di migliorare la situazione.
