  • On Friday, Turkey will offer to mediate between Washington and Tehran during Abbas Araghchi's visit, with Hakan Fidan saying Turkey `is ready to contribute to resolving the current tensions through dialogue`.
  • On Monday, a US naval strike group arrived in Middle East waters as President Donald Trump threatened a military strike on Iran earlier this month.
  • Installed infrastructure includes 203 electro-optical towers, 43 lift towers, 380 kilometres of modular concrete wall, and 553 kilometres of trenches, while unmanned aerial vehicles conduct round-the-clock reconnaissance.

  • Turkey says it supports a peaceful nuclear solution and Hakan Fidan, Turkish Foreign Minister, said `Iran is ready to negotiate on the nuclear file again` and urged Washington and Tehran to resume talks Wednesday.
