00:11Explosions rock southern Iran, just hours after the world watched Ali Khamenei laid to rest,
00:18and once again, the U.S. says, not us. So who's behind it? Let's break it down.
00:25It's Friday, July 10th. Iran just buried its former supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei,
00:33in the golden shrine of Imam Reza, Iran's holiest site in Mashhad. Khamenei was killed back in
00:40February in the opening strike of a war that's now dragged on for months. The funeral itself was
00:47massive. Six days of ceremonies, crowds in the millions, processions through Tehran, Najaf,
00:54and Kerbalah. But even as mourners gathered, the fighting never really stopped. Now,
01:00barely a day after the burial, new explosions, this time in Boucher province, home to Iran's
01:07only civilian nuclear plant. Iranian officials say the blasts hit the perimeter of the nuclear
01:13facility, a military base in Chogadak, and a fishing pier nearby. More explosions were reported
01:20in Konurak, further south. Here's the twist. Nobody's owning it. A U.S. official told Al Jazeera
01:28the American military was not behind this round of strikes. And Iran? Tehran hasn't pointed the
01:34finger at anyone either. No claimed responsibility. No confirmed attacker. Just explosions and silence.
01:41This comes right after the U.S. carried out what CENTCOM called some of its most powerful strikes yet,
01:49targeting air defenses, missile sites, and drone facilities, in retaliation for Iran hitting
01:55commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump didn't mince words either, saying the ceasefire
02:02deal with Iran is basically dead. It's a waste of time dealing with them.
02:07To me, I think it's over. I don't want to deal with them anymore. They're scum. You know what scum
02:13is?
02:13They're scum. They're sick people. They're led by sick people. And they're vicious, violent people.
02:21And if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it. As far as I'm concerned, it's over. I'll speak to
02:26our
02:26negotiators. They want to negotiate. They're good people. Steve Whitcoff, Jared Cushing. But they have
02:32to come back to me. As far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of time dealing with them. They're
02:37liars.
02:38And Israel isn't staying quiet. Defense Minister Israel Kotz says the military is on alert to strike
02:45again with even greater force if needed. So here's where it stands. A region already at war,
02:52a supreme leader just buried, unexplained explosions near a nuclear site, and everyone denying
02:59involvement. That combination, denial plus escalation, is usually a sign things are about
03:06to get louder, not quieter.
