This round of conflict in Israel has been paused for several days. On June 27, the Israeli military summarized its military operations against Iran, stating that the Israeli forces have fully achieved and even exceeded their combat objectives. Iran continues to be negative towards resuming nuclear negotiations with the United States. President Trump threatened on the same day to consider bombing Iran again due to uranium enrichment issues.
The Israeli Defense Forces spokesperson Ephraim Davidovich announced on June 27 that:
The Israeli military has fully achieved and even exceeded its combat objectives.
Israel has eliminated direct threats to its survival from Iran, systematically destroyed various stages of Iran’s nuclear program, destroyed 90% of its uranium enrichment capacity, and significantly derailed its nuclear program by several years. Iran’s missile production capabilities have been significantly weakened, over 80% of its air defense systems have been destroyed, and Israeli military operations have gained complete freedom.
On the same day, Israeli Defense Minister Benny Katz stated that he had ordered the Israeli Defense Forces to develop an action plan against Iran, including maintaining Israel’s air superiority, preventing Iran from developing nuclear and missile programs, and responding to activities supported by anti-Israel forces. Katz warned Iran that the “Rising Lion” military operation was just the beginning of Israel’s new policy.
Israel’s Chief of General Staff, Zvi Bar-On, mentioned that Iran has been severely hit, weakening the overall strength of the “axis of resistance,” including the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas). This could potentially advance Israel’s military objectives in Gaza.

According to a statement released by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on June 27, local time,

, resulting in at least 627 civilian deaths and nearly 5,000 injuries within Iran.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry stated on the 27th that
Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has rejected any plans to resume nuclear negotiations with the United States.
Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian had previously stated in an interview with Iranian media that there are no plans at present to restart nuclear negotiations, nor to contact the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi.
Amir-Abdollahian emphasized that it is not necessary to overly focus on certain speculations regarding the resumption of negotiations. He explicitly stated that no agreements, arrangements, or dialogues have been reached to initiate new negotiations, and Iran has not yet formulated any plans for starting negotiations.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei: Iran Wins and Gives the US a Shock
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei delivered a speech on the 26th, expressing condolences and respect for the Iranian military commanders and scientists who died in this conflict, and congratulating Iran on its victory over Israel.
Khamenei also praised Iran’s victory over the United States, stating that the United States directly involved in the war because it believed that without intervention, Israel would be completely destroyed. He mentioned that during the conflict, Iran also achieved a victory against the United States, delivering a severe slap to the latter by launching an attack on the U.S. military base in Qatar’s Udaiedd Air Force Base and causing damage.
President Trump: Ayatollah Khamenei’s Statement is a Lie
Or Again Bombing Iran Due to Uranium Enrichment Issues
In response to Ayatollah Khamenei’s statement on the 26th about “winning the war,” President Donald Trump commented on the 27th that despite knowing his statement was a lie, Khamenei claimed Iran had won the war against Israel, which is not true.
Trump stated that three of Iran’s nuclear facilities were destroyed,
and he was aware where Khamenei was hiding, ensuring that neither Israel nor the U.S. armed forces could end his life.
On June 27, Trump posted on social media claiming he had saved Ayatollah Khamenei from a humiliating death.
Trump stated that at the pivotal moment of the war,
he also requested Israel to withdraw a large air force unit, which would fly directly to Tehran, intending to launch a major battle. This would be the largest attack so far and would cause significant destruction, with many Iranians likely to die.
Over the past few days, he has been striving to lift sanctions and other measures
to provide Iran with better opportunities for comprehensive, rapid, and thorough recovery, but this has met with counterattacks.
Trump said he immediately abandoned all efforts to lift sanctions.
Trump also expressed hope that Iran would accept international inspections to verify it would not restart its nuclear program.
