A new mural showing a toppled Statue of Liberty with Iranian and Shiite flags appeared in Tehran’s Revolution Square today. It fits a pattern of Iranian billboards threatening Trump and his family. Iran’s foreign ministry denied any negotiations with the US after Trump said talks would start today to end the six-month war. They said talks are only with Oman about a temporary Hormuz route. Gatwick Airport warned of a jet fuel shortage from a technical issue at a fuel farm. It was resolved the same day with no major cancellations reported.
