BREAKING
Araghchi: Iran adopted a constructive approach in its engagement to ensure the European Union and the E3 fully honored their commitments and lifted all sanctions.
Araghchi: After a year of Iran’s full compliance with the agreement, it began implementing gradual, proportionate, and reversible compensatory steps in accordance with its recognized rights under the deal.
Araghchi: Iran demonstrated the utmost restraint in the face of repeated and fundamental violations and made extensive efforts to restore balance and preserve the agreement.
In his letter, Araghchi stated: The E3 failed to fulfill their obligations and instead imposed additional illegal sanctions on Iranian individuals and institutions.
Araghchi: These coercive measures constituted a grave violation of international law and the UN Charter, causing severe disruption in the implementation of the agreement.
Araghchi: Washington initially refrained from fulfilling its commitments, then withdrew from the agreement, reimposed its illegal and unilateral sanctions, and even expanded them.
Araghchi: UN Security Council Resolution 2231 has expired and fully ceased to be in effect as of today, in accordance with its explicit provisions.
Iranian Foreign Ministry: Reimposing sanctions on Iran is illegal

Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem: The movement remains committed to implementing the ceasefire agreement through the handover of another Israeli captive’s body earlier this evening

    Major film stars, including Susan Sarandon and Mark Ruffalo, have issued a statement in support of Emma Watson and Palestine 

Major film stars have voiced their support for Emma Watson and Palestinian solidarity in a statement.

Stars such as Sudan Sarandon, Mark Ruffalo, and Charles Dance have spoken out to support the Harry Potter star, who was accused of antisemitism by Israeli officials, simply for posting an image in support of Palestine.

Former Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon used the "antisemite" label to attack Watson, which was met with ridicule and criticism across social media.

Artists for Palestine UK, which is a cultural network that bands together for Palestinian rights, organized a letter that includes the names of more than 40 known figures, including Viggo Mortensen, Maxine Peake, Gael Garcia Bernal, and others. The letter read: “We join Emma Watson in support of the simple statement that ‘solidarity is a verb’, including meaningful solidarity with Palestinians struggling for their human rights under international law.”

— Artists for Palestine UK 🍉 (@Art4PalestineUK) January 13, 2022

The letter also cited a Human Rights Watch report that said that the Israeli occupation is committing crimes of apartheid and persecution against Palestinians, declaring: 

“We recognise the underlying power imbalance between "Israel", the occupying power, and the Palestinians, the people under a system of military occupation and apartheid."

“We stand against ongoing Israeli attempts to forcibly displace Palestinian families from their homes in the East Jerusalem (Occupied Al-Quds) neighbourhoods of Sheikh Jarrah, Silwan and elsewhere in the occupied Palestinian territory.”

The artists further stressed in the letter that they stand against all forms of racism, including antisemitism and Islamophobia, making it clear that  “opposition to a political system or policy is distinct from bigotry, hatred and discrimination targeting any group of humans based on their identity."
