A Kashmiri Shiite girl holds a portrait of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei during a Muharram procession on the 25th day of the Islamic month of Muharram, in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on July 21, 2025. Iran agrees to resume nuclear talks with European powers in Istanbul this Friday, the first since the US and Israel launch strikes on Iranian nuclear sites a month ago, sharply escalating tensions in the region. Meanwhile, Iran is ready to respond to any renewed military attack, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says on Wednesday, adding that Tehran is capable of delivering a bigger blow to adversaries than the one it gives during the 12-day Iran-Israel war.
