    🇺🇸🇮🇷| • Q: “Do you have any comments about the killing of 6 American soldiers?”

    • Trump ignoring the question: Next person

    Look at his posture and facial expression. That’s not the face of someone who’s “winning”.

    🇸🇦🤝🇺🇸🤝🇮🇱 Fact: What has exposed Saud regime for their secret approval of an US-Israeli on Iran is the “Ghost of Kuwait” incident.

    Before that, US planes deployed in Saudi Arabia & operating in the area were flying with transponders switched off (hidden from public).

    So we knew they were deployed there (confirmed presence by satelite imagery and ads-b data) but couldn’t track them in real time.

    Following the downing of 3 x F-15E in Kuwait, they started flying with transponders on to avoid repeating such incidents.

    And then the US planes participating in the war started popping (on flightradar24) over Saudi Arabia, leaving the Saudi regime exposed.

    All the data I share can be checked on flightradar24, & satellite imagery provided by Mizarvision can be also confirmed via free Sentinel-2 imagery for those who cant access it.

    The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) has revealed that the majority of missiles so far launched against American and Israeli targets during Operation True Promise 4 have been manufactured approximately ten years ago, with more advanced weaponry held in reserve

    “The missiles currently used belong to a decade ago,” Naeini emphasized. “Many of the missiles we have produced since the 12-day war until the Ramadan war have not yet been deployed”.

    Hot damn.

    🇺🇸 — Secretary of War Pete Hegseth cut staff in offices responsible for preventing and investigating civilian casualties from about 200 to fewer than 40 despite warnings from military leaders, POLITICO reports.

    Critics say the move weakened oversight before the strike on an Iranian girls’ school in Minab that killed more than 170 students, while Hegseth viewed the offices as unnecessary and linked to “woke” policies.

    🇺🇸🇮🇷| The US continues to fire standoff JASSM cruise missiles (missiles launched from outside Iran) against its targets in Iran.

    And Iran has been able to intercept many of these JASSM cruise missiles, including some this morning.

    No air superiority.

    🇺🇸 “Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not.” — Brendan Carr

    The head of the Federal Communications Commission is warning U.S. media outlets to fall in line with government narratives on the war with Iran — or risk losing their broadcast licenses.

    🇺🇸⚔️🇮🇷 Trump’s claim that the U.S. can quickly reopen the Strait of Hormuz appears far more complex than the White House suggests, according to WSJ.

    While U.S. officials say American warships will escort oil tankers through the strait, the Navy has reportedly avoided deploying vessels directly into the narrow 21 mile waterway, citing security risks. Iranian drones and anti ship missiles could turn it into a high risk “kill zone.”

    Military analysts say protecting shipping would require heavy force, potentially two warships per tanker, or around ten ships to escort a convoy of five to ten vessels. Continuous drone surveillance and strikes on Iranian coastal launch sites would also be necessary.

    Experts estimate the operation could require thousands of personnel, significant funding, and months of sustained deployment. Even then, results would be limited. Intelligence assessments suggest tanker traffic could fall to roughly 10 percent of normal levels, leaving more than 600 vessels delayed in the Gulf for months.

    A larger escalation, including strikes on Iranian territory or a ground operation against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, would require massive troop levels and could become a prolonged conflict.

    Even full coastal control would not eliminate the threat, as Iran possesses long range missiles and drones capable of striking vessels far from the strait.

    Industry analysts say normal traffic, over 100 ships per day, would only resume if hostilities end and Iran provides security guarantees. Without that, insurers and shipping firms may refuse to operate in the region.
