"Rosatom" Plans to Launch New-Generation Fast Neutron Reactor in 2030
Moscow - (Saba):
Alexei Likhachev, CEO of the Russian state-owned nuclear corporation Rosatom, announced on Tuesday that the company plans to launch a unique, new, fourth-generation fast-neutron reactor in 2030.
Likhachev said, according to Sputnik, "A unique project is the construction of a fourth-generation nuclear power plant in Seversk (Tomsk Oblast)... In 2030, we will launch a 300-megawatt fast nuclear reactor, the world's first fourth-generation power plant."
Earlier, Likhachev said that Rosatom maintains Russia's "nuclear shield" at an appropriate level so that no one would consider using weapons against Russia.
Likhachev indicated that the company is ready to cooperate with the United States on uranium supplies unless a different decision is made.
"We will be present on the European market in one way or another, and we will cooperate with the United States in uranium supplies unless another decision is made," Likhachev said.

Chinese Media: U.S. Repeating Iraq Mistake in Iran
Beijing - (Saba): Chinese state media reported on Sunday that the US administration is currently repeating in Iran the "mistake" it made when it invaded Iraq in 2003. This came in a commentary by China Global Television Network (CGTN) on the US attacks that targeted Iran's Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear facilities at dawn today. The network explained, in an article on its website, that the United States "resorted to war to end the conflict between Israel and Iran," noting that this move "represents a dangerous turning point in the already fragile Middle East." It emphasized that the Middle East "is a complex mosaic of alliances, enmities, and proxy conflicts." It indicated that US attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities and military infrastructure "could provoke retaliatory responses not only from Iran, but also from its regional allies and proxies, potentially igniting a wider regional war." She pointed out that history has repeatedly proven that military interventions in the Middle East have led to unforeseen consequences, such as protracted conflicts and regional instability. The network continued: "In 2003, the United States invaded Iraq based on distorted intelligence. What was the result? Washington's intervention led to disaster, pushing the region toward chaos and sectarian strife." She added: "After 20 years of occupation, Iraq still lacks stable governance and suffers from the rise of militias and other problems that America has failed to resolve." She asked: "Is the Donald Trump administration now repeating the same mistakes, but this time in Iran, which is three times larger than Iraq?" She concluded by emphasizing that dialogue and negotiation are still possible, noting that this is "the only hope for achieving stability in the Middle East and the world." On Sunday morning, the United States entered the Israeli war against Iran, with President Donald Trump announcing a "highly successful" attack targeting three nuclear sites in Iran: the Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan facilities.

President Al-Mashat: We will work to prevent any participation in aggression against Iran by all legitimate means
Sana'a - (Saba): His Excellency Field Marshal Mahdi Al-Mashat, President of the Supreme Political Council, confirmed that he will "direct the Foreign Ministry to send a memorandum to notify the United Nations of our observations of preparations and readiness by some member states to participate with the Israeli entity in its aggression against Iran." President Al-Mashat said in a statement to the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), "We will work to prevent any participation in the aggression against Iran by all legitimate means." He called on all Arab, Islamic, and peace-loving countries to make the same decision instead of waiting for us to target one country after another. He added, "We have every right to our decision, humanitarian, religious, and moral, and it is supported by international and regional conventions and Yemeni laws." President Al-Mashat pointed out that when countries abandon their responsibility to protect international peace and security and become supporters and accomplices of the aggressor in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and Iran, the solution lies in a strong and unified stance from all. He said, "The fire will reach every country if we do not all take action and stop the scheme of the arrogant powers to violate it." He pointed out that "any hostile act targeting any Islamic country will be opposed and confronted by us. This is our position, and we have previously announced it." His Excellency the President reiterated that America will not achieve anything new if it participates with the Israeli enemy entity in its aggression against Iran, except for its further involvement, and everyone will see that. He added, "We will direct the Humanitarian Operations Center to take the necessary measures in accordance with Yemeni law," stressing that anyone who supports or participates in Israel's aggression must pay the price for their decision.

Iranian 'Cyber Support Front' announces attack on Israeli Weapons of mass destruction factory
Tehran – SABA: The Iranian 'Cyber Support Front' announced on Saturday that it had carried out a cyberattack on an Israeli factory involved in producing weapons of mass destruction. In a statement reported by Iran's Tasnim News Agency, the front said it had monitored and infiltrated the CR Casting / EXACT company for a long time—companies that have supported the Zionist criminals in the manufacturing of weapons of mass destruction. The statement added: 'CR Casting and its affiliated factories are involved in precision metal casting and production of sensitive components for the military and defense industries, including companies like Elbit, Rafael, and IAI (Israel Aerospace Industries), which are associated with the Zionist entity. They manufacture parts used in offensive and defensive missiles, tanks, helicopters, and Israeli aircraft that are used in brutal attacks on civilians.' It continued: 'With support from freedom-fighting hackers around the world, the front managed to expose these factories and their inhumane activities, launching multiple cyberattacks to penetrate, disrupt their systems and production, and obtain their sensitive data.'
