  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a video message to Iran’s people, criticizing Iranian leaders and offering Israeli water expertise if the regime falls.
  • Iran is experiencing its worst drought in a century, causing water and power shortages amid the aftermath of the recent war and ceasefire.
  • Data show Iran’s electricity grid strained by a prolonged heatwave and five years of below-normal rainfall, with blackouts up to 48 hours disrupting government offices.
  • Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian mocked the offer on Wednesday during a Cabinet meeting, criticizing Israel’s denial of water and food to Palestinians as bad faith.
  • Observers note the offer has escalated into a political flashpoint, raising risks of civil unrest in Iran, with experts predicting reservoirs could dry up by September or October.
