Earlier. I think the results of send a very clear signal to policymakers because just after nine months of the president ial elections, support for the current Policy Makers has declined significantly. And this is mainly i think because of the high inflation and persistent inflation and declining Purchasing Power of the middle class and lower income classes, that is i think the main reason of declining support for the policymakers. Do you think that this rebuff at the polls will tie president erdogan s hands when it comes to reforming the economy . I think the signal is well received by the the policymakers because both the Finance Minister and president erdogan reiterated that the current policies will continue, so it means that they will continue to rebalance the economy and return back to Sustainable Growth for the turkish economy.

Iranian analyst abbas faiz gave me his thoughts and reflections on the events of the day so far. Well, i think the scenario that they would probably find the occupants of the helicopter alive may have become somewhat unlikely. So the next scenario might be that they probably know, based on past practice, past practice of the government of the Islamic Republic, they probably know what has happened. And then, again, we have two possibilities. The first possibility is that if, for example, Ebrahim Raisi is still alive, but injured.

Irans semi official tasnim news agency, which is close to the Islamic Revolutionary guard corps, posted a video with a caption saying, isfahan s nuclear site is completely safe. In the video, a man near the Isfahan Nuclear Technology Centre is seen showing his watch to the camera to indicate the time and date. We can then see several troops standing around what looks like an air defence battery. Reuters news agency is reporting that an unnamed iranian source has said there is no immediate plan for retaliation. As well as these explosions in iran, they were reported too in Southern Syria apparently from missiles targeting radar sites. And there were also blasts in iraq in both the Capital Baghdad and babil province to the south. Israel had promised to re
