BREAKING
Abu Zaid: I believe that the Iranian operation was multi-layered, combining cyber and electronic attacks with coordinated on-the-ground infiltrations by agents
Abu Zaid: Usually, archives of such sensitivity are typically protected by a full-scale security system, but it appears that Iranian intelligence managed to make use of a gap in it
Strategic military expert Nidal Abu Zaid: Iran has stripped "Israel" of the superiority and deterrence long boasted by its security minister, chief of staff, and other top officials
Fallahpour: Iran may use these documents in its battle with the United States and Western countries over its nuclear program
Fallahpour: Iran may have obtained additional documents related to "Israel's" regional projects, not just its nuclear program
Fallahpour: The coming weeks will be full of surprises, as Iran has forced Israeli intelligence agencies into a state of psychological exhaustion
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Tehran, Siavash Fallahpour: Iran has redefined the concept of deterrence, shifting it away from traditional military balance toward a new strategic framework
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Number of documents so great that merely studying them, along with accompanying images and footage will require a great deal of time.
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Large data trove was confirmed to have arrived to "safe sites".
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Operation had taken place in past, but large size of documents and need to transfer entire batch inside Iran necessitated secrecy.

The United States and Russia have agreed to a 30-day ceasefire targeting Ukraine's energy and infrastructure, marking a limited but notable step toward potential peace efforts.

The agreement follows a discussion between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump, during which the leaders also committed to further negotiations beginning immediately, the White House confirmed. 

While Ukraine has accepted the US-proposed truce, Putin has refrained from endorsing a broader ceasefire. The Kremlin noted that the Russian president raised concerns over Kiev potentially using the pause to strengthen its military capabilities.

According to a Kremlin statement, Putin stressed that any long-term resolution would require a full halt to foreign military assistance and intelligence-sharing with Kiev.

The White House issued a statement outlining the next steps, which include talks on a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea alongside broader discussions on permanent peace efforts.

"The leaders agreed that the movement to peace will begin with an energy and infrastructure ceasefire, as well as technical negotiations on the implementation of a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea, full ceasefire and permanent peace," the statement read.

Path Toward a Wider Peace Deal

Trump has been pushing for a temporary ceasefire as an initial step toward a more comprehensive peace agreement, which could include territorial concessions from Ukraine.

The Zaporozhye nuclear power plant remains one of the key areas under discussion, with speculation that it could be part of a final settlement.

The ongoing war has led to hundreds of thousands of casualties, displaced millions, and left cities in ruins, making the conflict the largest in Europe since World War II.
