  "summary": "Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has convened senior commanders of Iran's armed forces and issued what his office described as \"important and strategic orders,\" according to a statement posted on his official X account. These directives are expected to be published shortly. Additionally, Iran's judiciary chief, Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Ejei, has called for swift legal proceedings against individuals accused of collaborating with the country's adversaries, emphasizing the need for \"the utmost precision and justice\" in handling cases involving alleged betrayal and the passing of information to hostile states. This follows a broad crackdown in the wake of the US-Israeli war on Iran, which began in February.",
