Germany’s Wadephul: Alignment with Gulf States on Maritime Security<\/h3>\n

Deutsche Presse-Agentur (DPA)- German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul aims to deepen cooperation with key Gulf states to secure maritime routes and combat Iran’s destabilizing policies.<\/p>\n

Yemen’s Houthi militia is a “terrorist organization” which threatens not only Israel but also the free movement of goods in the Red Sea, the conservative politician said on Monday on the sidelines of consultations between EU foreign ministers and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) in the emirate of Kuwait. This affects the Gulf states as well as Europe, Wadephul said.<\/p>\n

Therefore, Wadephul called for action to put an end to the Houthis’ attacks. During the discussion with GCC representatives on Sunday evening, he said there was a shared understanding of the need not only to address the symptoms but also to tackle the root causes.<\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s Regime Unleashes Execution Spree and \u2018Slow Death\u2019 Tactics to Crush Dissent<\/h3>\n

\"Basij<\/p>\n

On the morning of October 4, 2025, the clerical regime in Iran committed another series of state-sanctioned murders, hanging seven political prisoners in the prisons of Sepidar (Ahvaz) and Ghezel Hesar (Karaj). These brutal executions are not a display of strength but the frantic actions of a regime cornered by public anger and terrified of a popular uprising. As Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), stated, these killings are Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei\u2019s \u201cdesperate attempt to instill fear and terror in society and to prevent the eruption of public anger.\u201d The gallows are merely the most visible weapon in the regime\u2019s arsenal. Behind prison walls, a systematic war of attrition is being waged against political prisoners through judicial manipulation, psychological torture, and a deliberate policy of \u201cslow execution\u201d by denying life-saving medical care. This multi-pronged assault reveals a dictatorship that has lost all legitimacy and now relies solely on brute force to survive.<\/p>\n

\"Supporters<\/p>\n

Melbourne, Australia \u2013 October 4, 2025: Supporters of the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK) organized an exhibition to highlight the Iranian regime\u2019s escalating human rights abuses, focusing on the death sentences imposed on political prisoners. The event called for the immediate abolition of these death sentences and the unconditional release of all political detainees in Iran. Participants strongly condemned the regime\u2019s repression and expressed unwavering solidarity with the Iranian people\u2019s struggle for democratic change. Members of Melbourne\u2019s Iranian community voiced their support for establishing a democratic republic in Iran, rejecting all forms of dictatorship\u2014including both theocratic rule and any return to monarchy.

80% of Positions in Emergency Medicine Programs in Iran Remain Vacant<\/h3>\n

\"Irans-medicine-mafia-shortages-of-prescription-drugs-750x375-1\"<\/p>\n

Ali Jafarian, deputy health minister of Iran\u2019s regime, announced that more than 80% of the capacity in emergency medicine programs and one-third of anesthesiology positions at Iranian universities remain vacant and have no applicants. On Sunday, October 5, he explained to the state-run ISNA news agency that over the past three years, based on a Ministry of Health decision, the capacity for specialized fields was supposed to increase by 12% annually. \u201cWe implemented this increase,\u201d he said, \u201cbut since these fields have few applicants, the number of vacant seats continues to grow.\u201d According to Jafarian, in 2024 about 1,600 residency positions in Iranian universities remained unfilled. In the key field of anesthesiology, there are about 440 available positions, but only 110 residents were accepted, leaving 130 seats without students. 80% of Positions in Emergency Medicine Programs in Iran Remain Vacant Ali Jafarian, deputy health minister of Iran\u2019s regime, announced that more than 80% of the capacity in emergency medicine programs and one-third of anesthesiology positions at Iranian universities remain vacant and have no applicants.<\/p>\n

The Regime\u2019s Fear of Peace: How Iran\u2019s Rulers Feed on War While the Region Seeks Stability<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As international efforts for a Gaza ceasefire gain momentum, Tehran\u2019s clerical rulers lash out in panic\u2014exposing a four-decade pattern of survival through conflict, repression, and terror. As a U.S.-backed initiative for a Gaza ceasefire gained traction in early October 2025, hopes rose for an end to the devastating conflict. For the first time in months, diplomatic momentum and public optimism pointed toward a path to stop the bloodshed and begin reconstruction. Yet, in Tehran, the response was not relief\u2014but fury. The regime\u2019s official mouthpieces, Friday prayer leaders, and state media unleashed an aggressive campaign of denunciation. They branded the U.S. President\u2019s peace proposal as a \u201cdevilish plan,\u201d warning Palestinians not to trust it, and attacked the very idea of dialogue and compromise. The clerical establishment\u2019s outrage revealed its deepest fear: that peace and regional stability would dismantle the political and ideological foundations upon which the mullahs have ruled for more than four decades.<\/p>\n
