As they telegraphed, war against Iran has begun from ‘Israel’, in addition to the latter’s ongoing attacks on Lebanon, Syria, and ongoing extermination of Palestinians.
Israeli Defense Minister: We attacked Tehran – Katz described the attacks on Iran as preemptive.
Israel’s Channel 12, quoting a security official, reported that in the first phase, they are preparing for “4 days of joint attacks” against Iran.
In an attempt to silence the Iranian voice, major Iranian news outlets are under heavy cyber attacks, including IRNA who’s suffering intense attacks.
Iranian Broadcasting and Television Corporation: Iran is preparing to retaliate and deliver a crushing response to the zionist regime. After the first missile storm from Israel/US, Iran is attacking.
🚨 Trump announces the US has begun ‘major combat operations in Iran’
“Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime — a vicious group of very dangerous, ruthless people,” he notes.
The objectives of the US & Israel’s war on Iran as presented by Donald Trump:
• Destroy the missile system
• Cripple the Iranian navy
• Prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons
• Overthrow the Iranian government, and possibly grant the Iranian people their so-called “freedom.”

“We are going to destroy their missiles and raise their missile industry to the ground, it will be totally – again – obliterated,” the US president said. pic.twitter.com/pJZNWGaxjU

I suspect what is really going on at this moment is the US is trying to swing another convenient ceasefire deal where everyone gets to claim they “won” in some fashion.
If Iran concedes to play charades again, they should just dispense with any pretense of being noble and brave.

Dmitry Medvedev:
The peacemaker has once again shown his true colors.
All the negotiations with Iran are a cover-up operation. No one had any doubts about that. Nobody really wanted to negotiate anything significant anyway.
The question is, who has more patience to wait for the inglorious end of their enemy?
The USA has only been around for 249 years.
The Persian Empire was founded more than 2,500 years ago.
Let’s see what happens in about 100 years…
The world must stand up against the rogue Epstein regime.

Of Course!

The first attack on Tehran was carried out with Tomahawk cruise missiles from U.S. ships in the Gulf of Oman.
Iran is striking. It’s clear that Iran is following on it’s promise of attacking regional allies or USA bases:
Al-Udeid Airbase in Qatar is under attack.
The U.S. Naval Base in Bahrain was struck by Iranian ballistic missiles – several impacts.
Explosions in Abu Dhabi United Arab Emirates – Al Dafra Air Base hosting US troops.
Iranian ballistic missiles target the U.S. base in Kuwait
Jordan has been hit
Explosions in the Saudi capital Riyadh
Ansarallah (Houthis) joined with targeted missiles – unclear at the moment where and when but it looks like they’re aiming at the occupied city of Jaffa, called Tel Aviv. This was a joint attack with Iraqi Kataeb Hezbollah.


It is expected that the UAE will join with US-Rael.
It is expected that in the next hours Iraq will join with Iran.

We’re using long term journalists seeking to get to accuracy as much as possible. While strikes can be counted, there is no ability now to assess quality. It is fog of war, so, wait for confirmation on most everything. The journalists are highly triggered and may report rumor as fact. What does seem to be true, is that Iran will not stop. There was a report that they see no red lines, they see no negotiations, they see no reason to stomp on the brakes. Donald Trump may have lit the region up in fire and he may have started a World War.
We are in unpredictable territory. We’ve seen only the first wave of attack (mainly on Tehran) and first wave of counterattack still ongoing. Literally 2 minutes ago: Israeli military: New wave of missiles fired from Iran toward Israel.
Israelis are sitting in shelters. The sirens have not stopped ringing in Israel.
Iran absorbed the first attacks and smoothly moved to counter.
Iranian Supreme National Security Council:
—
Announcement No. 1: The Iranian people were subjected this morning to aerial operations carried out by the murderous American regime in cooperation with the corrupt zionist regime, targeting several centers in the country. These evil operations took place once again during negotiations, and the enemy believes that the steadfast Iranian nation will surrender to its despicable demands because of these cowardly acts.
The Iranian armed forces have begun delivering a crushing response to these evil acts, and we will continuously provide the dear people with updates.
It must be noted that the corrupt American and “israeli” regimes will continue their operations in Tehran and some other cities; therefore, it is advised to maintain calmness and stay away from centers and cities you can travel to in order to avoid the dangers of the actions of these two regimes.
The government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has prepared all the needs of society in advance, and there is no need to worry about the provision of general supplies. It is advised to avoid crowding in shopping centers to prevent any potential risks.
Schools and universities will remain closed until further notice. As for banks, they will continue to provide their services to the dear Iranian people. Government departments will currently operate at 50% of their capacity.

I would suggest that the Trump presidency ended during this night.

⚡️Statement of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in connection with the armed aggression of the USA and Israel against Iran
On the morning of February 28, the armed forces of the USA and Israel began to carry out airstrikes on the territory of Iran.
The scale and nature of the military-political and propaganda preparations preceding this reckless step, including the deployment of a large military group of the USA in the region, leave no doubt that we are talking about a premeditated and unprovoked act of armed aggression against a sovereign and independent member state of the UN, in violation of the fundamental principles and norms of international law.
It is also reprehensible that the attacks are again being carried out under the cover of a resumed negotiation process, supposedly aimed at ensuring long-term normalization of the situation around the Islamic Republic, and contrary to the signals conveyed to the Russian side about the Israelis’ lack of interest in a military confrontation with the Iranians.
The international community, including the leadership of the UN and the IAEA, is obliged to immediately give an objective and uncompromising assessment of these irresponsible actions, aimed at destroying peace, stability and security in the Middle East.
Washington and Tel Aviv have once again embarked on a dangerous adventure, which is rapidly bringing the region closer to a humanitarian, economic and, possibly, radiological catastrophe.
The aggressors’ intentions are clear and they are openly declaring them – to destroy the constitutional order and eliminate the leadership of an undesirable state that refused to submit to military dictatorship and hegemony. The responsibility for the negative consequences of this man-made crisis, including an unpredictable chain reaction and a spiral of violence, lies entirely with them.
The serious consequences of these ill-considered steps for the global non-proliferation regime, the cornerstone of which is the NPT, are being openly ignored. At the same time, the American-Israeli tandem is hiding behind a pretense of concern about Iran not acquiring nuclear weapons. Bombing nuclear facilities under IAEA guarantees is unacceptable. In reality, Washington and Tel Aviv have motives that have nothing to do with the non-proliferation regime. They cannot fail to understand that by plunging the Middle East into a vortex of uncontrollable escalation, they are actually encouraging countries around the world, especially in the region, to acquire increasingly serious means against emerging threats.
❗️ We demand that the situation be immediately returned to the track of political and diplomatic settlement. Russia, as before, is ready to assist in finding peaceful solutions based on international law, mutual respect and balance of interests.

IRGC Public Relations: US and Israeli missiles falling in regional countries
– A number of US and Israeli missiles have fallen in desert and urban areas of Iraq and the Gulf countries after failing to reach their targets.
– At least 200 military personnel have been killed or injured in missile attacks on American bases so far.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
The decapitation strike on Iran’s leaders failed: Iranian MP: None of the countries’ officials were harmed in the US-Israeli aggression. Khamenei’s house is a hole in the ground and was shot to dust.

An important early warning radar installation is in shreds. Video shows an Iranian drone scoring a direct hit on a radar installation at the U.S. Naval Base in Bahrain, completely destroying the target. I believe it is around 1 Billion dollars up in smoke.

Trump has just cancelled his speech on Iran, touted for this morning.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
OK, enough already Amarynth. They got to me! I’ll stop getting exited about strikes and do a formal futurecast. (much of a guesscast) based on what we saw this night and it is early days. All of this may change in a New York Minute! Be aware of vicious war propaganda flooding the airwaves (from all sides).
Iran was very fast out of the starting blocks after the first strikes on Tehran. The attempt to kill their senior Military and Country governance in the main failed. They did a round robin of striking all the US bases in the region and then concentrated on Israel. Iran has not started and they are very serious that this time it is to the death. The strikes were not very large, but many and very fast. The targets were struck on the average five times. So, Iran is cooling their heels, keeping much power in reserve and making the enemy expend anti-missile resources which we all know the enemy is short of. Iran seems to be following a doctrine of exhausting the enemy and its resources and finding space for attrition warfare and for the region to catch up while creating US bodybags . I may be wrong, this is not my bag, but this is what I saw overnight and it may be valid for now only. We are waiting for China to respond formally but Russia this time called the perpetrators by name! This is new. President Putin just held an emergency meeting with members of Russia’s Security Council. The situation unfolding around Iran was discussed.

New reports are in that the Straight of Hormuz is closed. This is not fully confirmed as yet:

🔹🔹🔹🔹
China is highly concerned over the military strikes against Iran launched by the U.S. and Israel. Iran’s sovereignty, security and territorial integrity should be respected.
China calls for an immediate stop of the military actions, no further escalation of the tense situation,… pic.twitter.com/JzpKQgEpGy

Hearty Salon intrepids are slowly getting on shift with a wealth of detail.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
Yup Straits of Hormuz closed.

Interesting comment from Israeli media:
Channel 12 (Hebrew):
The Iranian response exceeded American and Israeli expectations; Iran bombed seven countries in one minute
🔹🔹🔹🔹
If you want to scroll through strikes (no analysis, just the strikes) this is a good Telegram channel_ https://t.me/Hoopoe31/14058

And then there is this:
A few hours after Iran’s large-scale operation against American bases in the region, Donald Trump conveyed a message to Tehran through Italy, calling for an immediate ceasefire.

Statement No. 3:
The third and fourth waves are being carried out with more advanced missiles than “True Promise 3”
The Public Relations Office of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced in a statement:
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
“So whoever transgresses against you, then transgress against him in the same way that he transgressed against you.”
To the noble Iranian people:
The third and fourth waves of Operation “True Promise 4” are being carried out continuously against a wide range of US and Zionist military and security targets, using more advanced missiles than “True Promise 3,” with a higher degree of accuracy and intensity.
The Israeli naval base in Haifa port, the Haifa warship dock, the Ramat David airbase, the Israeli Ministry of Defense in the Kirya area, the Beit Shemesh military-industrial complex, and the Ashdod military industries center are among the primary targets during the third and fourth waves of the war.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is prepared to expand and intensify the war, targeting the fixed and mobile targets of the region’s enemies with attacks conducted using Iranian missiles and drones.
Let the enemies of the Iranian people know that the coming waves will be far more destructive and numerous than Operation True Promise 3, drawing on past experiences and a proactive approach to execution.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
Statement No. 4 from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
In the fifth wave of Operation True Promise 4, the MSP, tasked with transporting ammunition to US ships at Jebel Ali port, was struck by four drones and rendered completely inoperable due to the damage and subsequent explosions.
We targeted the US naval base in the Abdullah Al-Mubarak area of Kuwait with four ballistic missiles and 12 drones, resulting in the destruction of its main infrastructure and casualties among US forces.
The MST-class combat support vessel, tasked with refueling US ships in the Indian Ocean, was struck by Iranian Qadr-380 missiles.
The IRGC Navy, in conjunction with forces operating in the airspace, will continue its operations against enemy units
This is the opening salvo. Israel and USA are still a threat to go nuclear. The big question for me, as an American, is this: if the USA loses big time, do they remain strong, come home, and send people like me to concentration camps? Or is this the end?… Read more »
