Port authority ordered removal of 83 'hazardous' containers – Fars

Azim Farrokhond, a local resident, was demonstrating against the execution of one of his relatives when he was fatally shot, the sources said.

Special forces stormed the gathering, they added, injuring several protesters and arresting others.

The protest coincided with the executions of two prisoners, Karim Farrokhond and Mahmoud Ostadmamzayi, who had been sentenced to death for armed robbery.

Although the prisoners' sentences had been suspended several times, sources said the executions were carried out.

Iran's foreign minister said on Thursday the decision to postpone the fourth round of talks with the United States was made "together with Omani and US interlocutors... for logistical and technical reasons."

"On Iran's part, there is no change in our determination to secure a negotiated solution," Abbas Araghchi said in a post on his X account.

"In fact, we are more determined than ever to achieve a just and balanced deal: guaranteeing an end to sanctions, and creating confidence that Iran's nuclear program will forever remain peaceful while ensuring that Iranian rights are fully respected."

"All purchases of Iranian Oil, or Petrochemical products, must stop, NOW!" US President Donald Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social on Thursday.

"Any Country or person who buys ANY AMOUNT of OIL or PETROCHEMICALS from Iran will be subject to, immediately, Secondary Sanctions. They will not be allowed to do business with the United States of America in any way, shape, or form."

Iran's state-run Tehran Times newspaper says Iran-US talks were postponed after the UN nuclear watchdog's chief Rafael Grossi provided "misleading information and reports to the American side" under pressure from Britain, France and Germany.

"(Grossi) aims to create the impression that what Iran says about the status of its peaceful nuclear activities is not accurate," the report said, citing unnamed sources.

"(October 7 was) an attack that would have never happened because the money was given by Iran to Hamas. Iran had no money when I was president. They were out of money. They were bust," US President Donald Trump said in a White House event on Thursday.

"They weren't giving it to Hamas. They weren't giving it to Hezbollah. They weren't giving it to anybody," he added.

"In fact, I put sanctions on last night. Any oil that anybody takes from Iran is not allowed to do business in the United States of America."
