The Ghanoon newspaper said in a statement on its website Monday that Tehran's prosecutor ordered it to halt operations based on allegations of 'libel and spreading lies to create public anxiety.'

The Islamic Republic’s army is ready for war with the US and the Western allies, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Commander, Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari, said.

In blatant disregard of the nuclear deal, Iran is progressing with the development of its ballistic missile capability, while constantly threatening Israel's existence.

Iranian military leaders this week laughed at American remarks that the military option is still on the table and said they would crush anyone who attacks Iran.

In the face of threats to Israel's very existence, PM Netanyahu has said that “even if Israel has to stand alone, Israel will stand strong".

Still describing the US as "the enemy," a leading Iranian general says that to date, Washington has conceded to all of Tehran's demands in the negotiations.

Iran's military command again threatened Israel and continues to work overtly and covertly to destroy the Jewish state.
