Amid ongoing protests and violence in Iran, drone footage has revealed the complete destruction of the Ruzht Market, showing widespread devastation and smoke rising from the site. The video, released by Iranian state television, captures the aftermath of a major fire incident, highlighting the scale of damage. Meanwhile, reports indicate that former US President Donald Trump was briefed on multiple options to respond, including military strikes, missile attacks, cyber operations, and psychological campaigns aimed at influencing public opinion in Iran. No final decision has been taken yet. Additionally, foreign media reports that the US has imposed a 25% additional tariff on any country trading with Iran, affecting imports and exports, including India’s trade in basmati rice, tea, sugar, and dried fruits. The new measures could increase India’s export costs to the US up to 75% for affected products.
