This is BS.

A ship disguised as a broken vessel passed through the Strait of Hormuz, reports Bloomberg citing vessel tracking data.  The ship named Jamal first appeared on radar screens on March 13 in the Gulf of Oman, and its previous location remains unknown. Soon after, the vessel disappeared from radar and reappeared on March 20 in the Persian Gulf, having already bypassed the blockade.  It is noted that the ship is disguised as a liquefied natural gas carrier.

This is the first LNG carrier, a Japanse ship that was allowed passage through the Straits.  Iran is slowly allowing traffic through.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

I think SmoothieX12 did a good video on all of this, opening with Trump’s ‘win’:

4) The next number of points are crucial.  This is the Final One 

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The Start:  Iranian Military Spox:  The spokesman for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Command:

More modern systems have entered the battlefield for a new round of direct impact operations, and the enemy’s battlefield will become narrower and more difficult than before.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Israel on the rumors that Iran targeted Diego Garcia:   (I am still using a bit of salt with this!)

Israeli Chief of Staff:  Iran used a two-stage ballistic missile in an attempt to target an American target on Diego Garcia, 4,000 kilometers away. This puts European capitals within range of Iranian missiles, which threaten the entire world, not just Israel.

Europe is in hysteria understanding that they are well in range of Iranian new missiles.

The G7:  We call for an immediate and unconditional end to all attacks by Iran  (Idiots are knocking on the wrong door again!)

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The Nukes:  I did not report this as I was not sure whether it was hysteria or not.  We’re going with the tweets:  The first one refers to Natanz (The three Iranian nuclear facilities are Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow).   https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/21/iran-says-us-and-israel-attacked-natanz-nuclear-facility

Israel announces that it wasn’t them who bombed an Iranian nuclear energy facility today but was the United States.

Yesterday the United States said it would no longer do this. https://t.co/KgC2Hfa9Wu

And then, Iran struck Dimona, the Israeli nuclear town. 

Total Iron Dome Failure over israel’s nuclear facility!

(Bear in mind Iran is following tit for tat in their strike pattern.  There were 20 strikes on Dimona as reported .. not the actual nuclear facility, but the town around it and reportedly also a shelter.  (Fallout Shelter?  I don’t know.)

Issue is, Iran could have struck Dimona so, it is still a warning!

Iranian ballistic missile hits Israel’s Dimona

Located in southern Israel, Dimona hosts the nation’s primary nuclear facility, which is widely believed to produce plutonium for an undeclared nuclear arsenal, estimated to include between 80 and 400 warheads.

They told us “All the missiles were destroyed” They told us “Iran was completely defeated”

But yesterday Iran struck targets 4,000 km away and they literally just struck Israels most secure “Secret” Dimona with Hypersonic weapons?

I still cannot believe it. Israel’s habit of keeping the data under lock and key and censorship has broken. There are hundreds of videos out and growing by the minute.  They are now closing the city of Dimona to entry and exit. School classes have been canceled. Emergency mode is being introduced.

If this is true, I will celebrate!

Third enemy fighter jet hit in central Iranian skies

The Public Relations Office of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has announced that a third hostile fighter jet belonging to the Zionist regime—an F-16—was struck at 3:45 a.m. in central Iran by advanced air defense systems of the IRGC Aerospace Force.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The successful tracking and downing of over 200 enemy aircraft, including drones, cruise missiles, refueling planes, and advanced fighter jets during the first three weeks of the war, reflects the enhanced capability to monitor and intercept aggressors in Iranian and regional skies, as well as the strengthening of the country’s air defense shields.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Seyed Mohammad Marandi:

“So far, over 20 countries have reached out to Iran to align with its new framework for managing the Strait of Hormuz. If, as previously reported, Iran moves to make the yuan the basis for its transactions, something important is unfolding – a new global equation is taking shape.”

US Treasury Secretary Scott Besant claimed Washington eased sanctions so Tehran could sell “oil stored on the water.”

Iran’s Oil Ministry dismissed this, saying it has no crude at sea or surplus for export. Spokesperson Saman Ghodousi called the US statement a move to manipulate buyers and market sentiment.

The Trump administration reportedly waived sanctions for 30 days, citing high oil prices linked to US-Israel pressure on Iran. Besant claimed the move could release 140 million barrels to global markets.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Here are Trump’s achievements in Iran, thus far:

✅ Iranian missiles still raining down
✅ Iranian nuclear program still strong
✅ Iranian government still in place
✅ Replaced Khamenei with Khamenei
✅ Iran’s SNSC now led by hardliner Jalili
✅ Strait of Hormuz fully controlled by Iran
✅ U.S. Air Force & Navy exposed as paper tiger
✅ U.S. bases still getting obliterated
✅ Yemen’s Red Sea faces imminent shutdown
✅ Iranians of all political stripes are unified
✅ Israel still getting raped by Iranian missiles
✅ U.S. & NATO partial withdrawal from U.S. bases
✅ Several U.S. Air Force jets blown up
✅ U.S. financial assets blown up across gulf
✅ Oil prices hit $119 and are still rising
✅ Gas prices up 26% and are still rising
✅ F-35 stealth jet struck for first time in combat
✅ 13 U.S. soldiers killed and 240+ injured
✅ Trump’s poll numbers reached record low
✅ Air defenses across the gulf completely gone
✅ 10% of MQ-9 Reaper Drone fleet destroyed
✅ 3-4 AN-TYP 2 radars for THAAD systems gone
✅ $1+ Billion early warning radar destroyed in Qatar
✅ U.S. Navy 5th fleet command HQ gone in Bahrain
✅ USS Ford caught on fire & departed for Greece
✅ USS Lincoln was struck and fled 1000KM away

And the two latest:

✅ Sanctions withdrawn on Iranian Oil on the water and from Russian oil on the water as well. (This is for 30 days but the US will never regain their sanctions power again).
✅ NATO is withdrawing from the region.
✅ Shortly after the Japanese Head of State visited Trump, (and vamped her way through) Iran announced that Japanese ships may cross the Strait.

I don’t doubt that.  Trump as I said, is doing a TACO Big Time.

Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei (may God protect him):

Leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Sayyid Mojtaba Khamenei:
—
I congratulate all the people of our nation on the victories achieved against the enemies.

Our people fought three military and security wars last year against the “israeli” entity and the United States.

The Iranian people established a wide defensive line and dealt a blow to the enemy, and the front line in Iran is much stronger than the enemies think.

The enemy thought that the people would overthrow the Islamic system within a day or two.

I thank the brave President and the officials who appeared among the people, which strengthened cohesion.

To the Iranian people: Your conscious presence day and night and your cohesion will grow even stronger.

Our people must be wary of the enemy’s malicious media campaigns, as one of the enemy’s paths is its media operations to harm national unity.

The attacks that occurred in Turkey and Oman were by no means carried out by our forces or the forces of the Resistance Front, but are a ruse by the zionist enemy.

The zionist enemy uses “false flag” tactics to create strife between the Islamic Republic and its neighbors.

The “israeli” enemy has repeated operations like those in Turkey and Oman in other countries as well.

We consider our eastern neighbors to be the closest to us, and we possess many shared factors, and Pakistan receives great attention from our martyred leader.

I ask Pakistan and Afghanistan to work on improving their relations, and I am ready to do what is necessary in this regard.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

There was no end to the Iranian wave in the first part of last evening. All countries of the Gulf got bombed. IRGC announces execution of the 67th wave of its ongoing retaliatory Operation True Promise 4:

🔺 In this wave of operations, Ali Al Salem Air Base was targeted, including its drone command center, aircraft maintenance hangars, helicopter support facilities, equipment depots, and the US-led coalition operations center.

🔺 Early-warning missile defense radars at the American gathering site in Al-Wafa Base were also struck with long- and medium-range systems.

🔺 Satellite, radar, and air defense centers of the Israeli regime across the central, southern, and northern occupied territories were also targeted.

Mar 19

Ali Larijani’s successor, Hossein Dehghan, holds a doctorate in management, speaks seven languages, and was among the students involved in the attack on the US Embassy in Tehran and the kidnapping of American soldiers.

He also held leadership roles within the Revolutionary Guard in Lebanon during the 1980s, playing a prominent role in the attack on the US Marine barracks in Beirut and the 1983 bombing of the US Embassy in Beirut.

He is the former Iranian Minister of Defense, the former commander of the Revolutionary Guard’s Aerospace Force, and the former Deputy Minister of Defense. He also served as Secretary and Chairman of the Political, Defense, and Security Committee of the Expediency Discernment Council.

He served as an advisor to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei (may God be pleased with him) on military affairs, which strengthened his presence within decision-making circles. He is also responsible for the largest economic network in Iran, known as the Mostazafan of Iran (Mostazafan Foundation).

When one leader departs, another emerges who is even more ruthless and powerful against the enemy

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard:  We launched wave 66 of Operation True Promise 4.    Wave 66 targeted sites in the heart of the occupied territories, Tel Aviv, and U.S. military bases in the region.  Continuing the 66th wave of Operation True Promise 4, numerous targets in West Jerusalem and Haifa, as well as the American Al-Dhafra Air Base, were struck by heavy, precision, and fragmentation missile systems of the Qadr, Khorramshahr, and Kheibar Shekan classes, medium-range Qiam and Zulfiqar missiles, and squadrons of attack aircraft.

The UN Security Council convenes an emergency, closed-door meeting to address the Middle East situation

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Bibi Netanyahu made a speech today. It seems he is also looking for an offramp. Lots of good talk about Trump .. He did not convince Trump to start this war .. Trump did it himself.
Stresses need to launch ‘region-wide negotiation process’ to ‘agree on concept for COLLECTIVE security’ in region
‘Trump is the LEADER, and I’m… y’know…his…ally’ — Netanyahu
‘Despite fake news, we are WINNING and Iran is being decimated’ — Netanyahu

Vows to DESTROY Iran’s missile and drone arsenal

And then he declares victory

‘We have changed Israel into a regional power, and in some cases, a GLOBAL POWER’ — Netanyahu
‘We will CHANGE the Middle East, and WE HAVE CHANGED IT’
‘It is UNRECOGNIZABLE’
‘We’re working to create conditions for Iranian regime to COLLAPSE’ — Netanyahu
‘But it may SURVIVE, it may not’ ‘There is no comparison. It’ll be at its weakest point’
‘I’m not sure who’s running Iran right now’ — Netanyahu
‘Mojtaba has not shown his face’
‘Have you seen him? We haven’t’

Netanyahu: We need alternative routes instead of the Strait of Hormuz. We need oil and gas pipelines that go west through the Arabian Peninsula directly to our ports in Israel.

Bibi:  “Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan. Because if you are strong enough, ruthless enough, powerful enough, evil will overcome good.”

So Netanyahu is giving Trump an off ramp. Iran is finished he says. He did not lead Trump into this war. The Iran regime is ready to collapse.  He has given instructions to the army and Mossad to target Iranian regime officials even on the streets.

Both Bibi and Trump are now doing the TACO. They want an ending like at the end of the 12 day war. Status Quo and the insanity continues.  Trump on ‘little excursion’ in Iran: ‘it’s gonna be OVER WITH pretty soon’.  And this classic:   Trump says that he expected oil prices to go higher after he attacked Iran, and that they are actually lower now than he assumed they’d be.  Does anyone actually believe this? He changes his story about why this war is happening every day. He also said before this that he didn’t expect Iran to retaliate against neighboring countries that assisted US strikes. He also clearly had no plan for the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and everything he has done since the start of the operation has been damage control, with him scrambling to pick up the pieces.

Of course, we cannot believe a word they say, but both of them are carefully covering one another’s seats.

Six U.S. allies have pledged to secure navigation routes in the Strait of Hormuz.   The countries involved are Japan, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands.

Iran has not slowed down.

Initial reports of a 2nd American F-35 being hit & getting damaged by Iranian air defenses, in Bandar Abbas, southern Iran.  According to reports, it emergency landed in Al Dhafra Air Base in the UAE.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Iran has established a safe transit corridor through the Strait of Hormuz.

At least nine vessels have already passed, routed near Larak Island for visual inspection by IRGC naval forces and port authorities, according to Lloyd’s List, a maritime intelligence outlet.

This aligns with broader reports that Tehran is selectively allowing ships through while maintaining effective control over the strait and restricting wider traffic.

Iran just hit Israel’s Haifa and Ashdot refineries. Israeli Broadcasting Authority: We received a notification from censors not to publish footage of the bombing of Haifa.

Also, medium-range Qiam and Zulfiqar missiles struck US targets and interests at the “Al-Kharj” base—the main fuel support location for US f16 and f35 fighter jets and spy AWACS aircraft—the “Sheikh Isa” base, which is the command and control headquarters for the data center and combat communication equipment of the US terrorist army, and the “Al-Dhafra” base, which were accurately hit by medium-range liquid and solid-fuel missiles, including multi-warhead Qadr, Kheibar Shekan, Qiam, and Zulfiqar.

A US F-35 made an emergency landing at a Middle East base after being struck by “suspected Iranian fire,” two sources told CNN. (Not suspected, Iran targeted it). US President Trump claims that Iran’s anti-aircraft equipment “is gone” just as Iran releases footage striking an American F-35 fighter jet.

Statement from the Islamic Resistance in Iraq (Saraya Awliya’ al-Dam):

In fulfillment of our religious duty and in retaliation for the blood of Wali Allah, the martyr Imam Sayyid Ali Hosseini Khamenei, and to deter the aggression that led to the martyrdom of a group of young Iraqi resistance fighters, our brave mujahideen carried out 110 operations over 15 days targeting U.S. bases inside and outside Iraq since the outbreak of Operation True Promise 4, and we continue into the second phase.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Yedioth Ahronoth:
A crisis of trust with the Israel Defense Forces has significantly harmed the resilience of residents in the Galilee and northern regions.
A study titled the “Home Front Resilience Index,” by Brigadier General (Res.) Dr. Itzik Ronen at the David Institute for Policy and Security Research, found that the night of March 11 led to a 15% drop in resilience among residents of the Galilee and the Krayot.

The figure refers to the night when Hezbollah launched around 200 rockets from Lebanese territory, while the Israeli military had insisted just hours earlier that there was no change in instructions.
The study, conducted among more than 1,355 Israelis, concludes that the gap between the army’s denial and the reality of the rocket barrage has shattered public trust.

In settlements along the border with Lebanon, the situation is significantly worse, with the social stability index dropping to 3.86—well below the 4.0 threshold considered the minimum for societal stability.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
—
“Tel Aviv,” the center of the evils of the savage zionist entity, was subjected in the sixty-first wave of operation “True Promise 4” to a barrage of missiles, including the multi-warhead “Khorramshahr 4,” the multi-warhead “Ghadr,” “Emad,” and “Kheibar Shekan,” under the slogan “Ya Aba Abdallah Al-Hussein, peace be upon him,” in revenge for the blood of the martyr Dr. Ali Larijani and his companions.

The “Khorramshahr 4” and “Ghadr” missiles in this rapid and intensive operation, and due to the collapse of the zionist entity’s multi-layered and highly advanced air defense system, successfully struck more than 100 military and security targets in the heart of the occupied territories without any hindrance.

According to field information, and after this lightning attack carried out by the Aerospace Force of the Revolutionary Guard, electricity was cut off in parts of “Tel Aviv,” and controlling the situation and rescue operations became more difficult for the internal forces. The initial losses of the zionist entity in this attack were estimated at more than 230 killed and wounded.

Judging by the number of short videos and images from this strike on Tel Aviv, the zionist prohibitions on media fell apart. It was carnage. It is now reported that Iran let fly more than 100 strikes.

From Fotros Resistance – fairly reliable:

Iran’s Supreme National Security Council confirms death of Ali Larijani — statement

Dr. Ali Larijani, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, was killed along with his son Morteza Larijani, a senior security official and a group of bodyguards, Tasnim News Agency reported.

In a statement, Iran’s Supreme National Security Council confirmed his death, saying he was killed alongside his son, Deputy Security official Alireza Bayat, and members of his protection team.

The council described Larijani as a senior figure who had “devoted his life” to Iran’s development and called for unity in the face of what it described as hostile acts.

are all now under fire. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced the 57th, 58th and 59th waves of missile attacks under Operation True Promise 4

Hezbollah is raging in Southern Lebanon with the help of Iraq and Iran – Operation Khyber 1. Settlements of Kiryat Shmona, Metula, Al-Malkiya, Dishon, Avivim, Kfar Blum, Ramot Naftali, Zar’it, Shtula, Even Menachem, and Beit Hillel with a large rocket salvo.

Iranian Special Operations Forces carried out an operation an hour ago deep inside the occupied territories, directly targeting a senior member of the occupation’s security cabinet.

Drones are continuously entering northern occupied territory.

An Iranian rocket wave is heading toward southern Palestine. The Dimona nuclear reactor is within the alert range.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

There is a calming down generally in the overall sphere. Strike by strike reporting is not necessary any longer. We may only look at the important strikes, and those are the ones that support Iran’s objectives. The most important from yesterday late is:

-American embassy in Baghdad have been under constant attacks all day. Shahed-136 drone struck inside the US embassy. US security officials confirm to Reuters 2 drones blasted the embassy complex — It is requesting the dispatch of ambulances and fire trucks. In addition, a large Iraqi Military presence surrounds the American occupation embassy compound in Baghdad.

-Secondly it is reported by Zionist sources that the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, Ali Larijani was targeted and killed in the past hours. We have to wait for Iranian confirmation, if that is a true story.

-Currently, the atmosphere is one that is ripe for false flag attacks. We are seeing those with Iran reporting that certain strikes are not theirs. The atmosphere is one of increasing the depth and sheer size of the war. Trump is begging for ‘coalition help’.

-On oil – don’t forget, it is not only the Strait or Hormuz, it also gas production facilities that are being wacked. A large gas field in the United Arab Emirates was set ablaze after a drone strike and a vital oil port was halted again, piling pressure on energy markets and supply with each day that the Iran war goes on.

-Surrounding, Modi is in trouble. This is only one example: Indian MP Anand Dhaurahra: I greet Ayatollah Khamenei; a Leader who did not bow to America and accepted martyrdom, but did not surrender. Such a spirit reflects dignity and resistance.

Reports are in from Pakistan shooting up a hospital in Afghanistan. There are many conflicting – this is a threatening war with real consequences.

Mar 16

I do not know who is being trolled worse .. Bibi, or Trump.  It is not a ‘good look’ as those that are presstitudes say.  Yet, we have a war on.

IRGC spokesman had a message for Trump in English:

“The outcome of the war cannot be determined by tweets. The result of a war is determined in the field, the very place where you and your forces do not dare to approach, and which you can only talk about in your tweets. It would be better to name this war ‘Epic Fear’ instead of ‘Epic Fury.'”

🔹🔹🔹🔹

I hate to post Trump, but he is nuts and apparently still in charge. Trump: ‘IT’S UNFAIR… IRAN HAS NO RIGHT TO BE DOING WHAT THEY’RE DOING.’

I did not hear this myself .. DD Geopolitics note: Trump: We can definitely end the war this week.

Yeah, we cannot trust any numbers, but I think the bodybags are piling up. 200+ US TROOPS WOUNDED ACROSS 7 COUNTRIES IN IRAN WAR. TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES AMONG MOST COMMON – Source: WaPo

-Trump admits he was caught with his pants down: “They [Iran] weren’t supposed to go after all these other countries in the Middle East. Nobody expected that. We were shocked.”

Yeah right. We all knew. He must be the dumbest president ever.

The China visit is postponed: Donald Trump stated that at his request, the visit to Beijing has been postponed “for a month, or so.”

By the time of the visit, Trump planned to present a conquered Iran to Xi as a trump card. But, apparently, the White House already understands that the “Iranian issue” will not be resolved by the end of March.

And the postponement of Trump’s visit to China is currently the most obvious proof that the special operation in Iran did not go as planned.

Trump has now had his tariffs declared illegal, and now the administration is burning through years of production in interceptors, which weakens the US militarily in Asia, so when Trump does visit, he will have absolutely no leverage in any discussions.

The Zionist media is very funny.  Nobody ever dies, perhaps one, once a week or so.  They may have reported injuries or more frequently no reports of injuries, but nobody really ever dies.  Missiles are always intercepted, shrapnel falls and rescue teams sent, but no inuries.  Sirens always go off but Tehran is under attack by Israeli warplanes.   This is a level of misrepresentation that is unbelievable.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The Israeli regime informed the US this week that it is running critically low on ballistic missile interceptors as their air defenses get squeezed by barrages of retaliatory strikes from Iran.

Israeli media have reported a marked increase in destruction and casualties since Iran began using its more advanced missiles in strikes against targets across the occupied territories.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

According to reports and satellite images released from Chinese sources:

– The U.S. aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) has moved away from Iran’s coast and is now operating near Salalah, Oman, behind the coastal mountain range.

– The carrier is now more than 1,100 km from Iran; earlier it was observed about 350 km from the coast.

– The aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) has also changed position, moving to the southern Red Sea near the coast of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

– Earlier, United States Central Command (CENTCOM) denied Iran’s claim that the carriers had withdrawn from the Arabian Sea. However, open-source satellite images show both carriers have changed positions and moved beyond the range of Iran’s missiles.

Nobody is coming to help Trump ‘open the strait of Hormuz’. Not even France.

To muddy the waters more, India was asked to (by who not stated) release three Iranian oil tankers that had been detained last month, in exchange for Iran allowing two Indian ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. India eventually surrendered.

Very bad press releases in general.

I have no idea but will wait for pics.

Iran warning to UAE: EVACUATE seaports

Imminent strikes are retaliation for attack on Iran’s top oil hub Kharg Island

🔹🔹🔹🔹

This is in line with my expectation. To be sure, the detail my differ, but I expect that the region, the map will change. This is only one depiction.

🇮🇷 How the Iran war may completely redraw the Gulf map

While US neocons and Zionists were busy salivating over dreams of Iranian Balkanization, a very different scenario may be unfolding in the region, a group of Iraqi researchers say.

📹 In a video circulating on social media, the experts warn that if the conflict continues, it may be the Gulf map — a product of the colonial era — that gets redrawn:

🔴 UAE territory back to Oman

🔴 Saudi Arabia takes Qatar

🔴 Kuwait absorbed by Iraq

🔴 Bahrain returns to Iran

And what about “Greater Israel”? It may remain a Zionist dream, while the future of Israel itself can’t be read in a crystal ball.

Iran’s IRGC:

– Wave 49 — Iranian missile and drone units targeted Patriot radars, the control tower, and air-defense hangars at Al Dhafra Air Base with kamikaze drones and precision ballistic missiles.

– Sheikh Isa Air Base was also hit by missiles and drones, destroying early-warning radars, aircraft shelters, the central ramp, and fuel tanks of American aircraft, which burned in the fire.

– Al Adairi helicopter base was struck by heavy missile and drone attacks, destroying equipment hangars, gathering points, and helicopter storage hangars.

– The Strait of Hormuz is fully under intelligent control of the IRGC Navy, and the passage of oil tankers and commercial ships of the aggressors and their allies remains prohibited. Any transit will be targeted.

Context about Kharg Island strikes.  (Trump is ‘obliterating’ again and according to him, the war will end when he feels it in his bones).

DD Geopolitics gave us some context on Kharg Island.  

On March 14, 2026, the ongoing conflict between the US-Israel syndicate and Iran entered its third week, marked by a significant escalation in military action and threats to global energy supplies.

➡️US Strikes on Kharg Island: President Donald Trump confirmed that US forces bombed military installations on Iran’s Kharg Island, which handles over 90% of the country’s oil exports. While Trump claimed to have “totally obliterated” military targets, he stated he intentionally spared oil infrastructure for now.

➡️Tehran has warned that if its oil facilities are targeted, it will destroy US-linked oil infrastructure throughout the region, potentially turning them into “a pile of ashes.” These warnings should be taken seriously given the track record of the recent precision targeted strikes across the region from Iran.

➡️Global crude oil prices have already surged more than 40% since the conflict began. Experts warn that Iranian retaliation against regional gas and oil facilities would be “catastrophic” for the global economy.

➡️US Troop Movements: An additional 2,500 Marines and the amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli are being deployed to the Middle East. While this bolsters the US military posture, officials noted this does not necessarily mean a ground invasion is imminent; these units are often used for embassy security and civilian evacuations.

➡️The US has threatened further strikes on oil infrastructure if Iran continues to block or interfere with shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.

➡️Iranian state media reported at least 15 explosions on Kharg Island, specifically targeting air defenses and naval bases. While smoke was seen rising from the island, Iranian sources claim the oil export facilities remain intact.

Pepe mentions:  If your tanker is transporting oil traded in yuan, feel free to cross the Strait of Hormuz. The most sophisticated attack on the US dollar in modern history.

The war continues.

Commander of the Aerospace Force of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:  The accuracy of Iranian missile strikes has doubled over the past 48 hours.

7 important confirmations:

• The attacks on Aramco facilities, the Salalah oil refinery in Oman, and sites in Turkey were not carried out by Iran; they were launched from Mossad-linked bases and American hideouts allegedly operating from the UAE in an attempt to drag blame onto Iran.

• Al Jazeera, continuing its familiar takfiri pattern against Iran, misquoted the statements of Hamas and circulated the narrative that Hamas asked Iran to stop the attacks. In reality, Hamas called on regional countries to confront the aggression and affirmed Iran’s right (https://t.me/enemywatch/50565) to respond.

• Reports about the death of Netanyahu originated from Israeli psy-op accounts, designed to damage the credibility of opposing information channels by creating confusion and artificial hype.

• Imam Mujtaba Khamenei has said nothing regarding nuclear issues; the statements circulating across multiple X accounts are false clickbait fabrications.

• Imam Mujtaba Khamenei was only slightly injured and is recovering, and there are no reports of major injuries.

• Trump’s boasting about the “obliteration” of Kharg Island has been refuted by Iranian and ground sources: the oil infrastructure remains intact and there are no casualty reports.

• Yemen has not announced entry into the war. There is no official statement from any Yemeni authority confirming that Yemen has entered the conflict. The claims circulating and attributed to Mohammed al-Bukhaiti are false, and he has made no such statement; what some media outlets are spreading are misleading rumors.

• The attack on oil assets in Fujairah was not carried out by Ansarallah; attributing it to them is false.

Beware of asymmetric information warfare—its soft power manipulation can be more dangerous than the symmetric battlefield itself.

More on Kharg Island from Marwa Osman

Saudi Arabia has reportedly opened its airspace to waves of American warplanes that headed toward Iran’s critical energy lifeline, Kharg Island as oer the post below.

Flight monitoring sources have detected multiple U.S. aircraft taking off from Prince Sultan Air Base, accompanied by intense aerial activity across northeastern Saudi Arabia facing the Persian Gulf.

Kharg Island is the artery of Iran’s oil exports, the point through which the overwhelming majority of the country’s energy shipments leave for global markets.

Targeting it would not be a tactical strike. It would be a strategic act of economic warfare.

But what happened next is perhaps even more revealing.

And the moment that reality surfaced, retaliation against the KSA base followed as let the above post

Now the entire Persian Gulf stands on the edge of a far more dangerous phase, because targeting Kharg Island risks triggering a much wider Iranian response across the entire Persian Gulf’s energy infrastructure, from shipping lanes to military installations.

Remember this well. Because the battlefield was not created in Tehran. It was opened, quite literally, in the skies of Saudi Arabia.

Seven Down

According to a report by WSJ, Iran struck five U.S. aerial refueling aircraft stationed inside Saudi Arabia at Prince Sultan Air Base.  We know of the one that went down over completely friendly airspace in Iraq, and another that limped to Israel, with half its tail shot off.

For years, Saudi officials have insisted, over and over again, that their territory is not being used for hostile operations against Iran. Meanwhile, Persian Gulf media endlessly repeat the narrative that Iran is the destabilizing force threatening the Arab world.

A few comments from Hebrew media_

The Hebrew newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth – Sima Kadmon:

Less than a year and a half after Benjamin Netanyahu said that this is not the same Hezbollah as before the war, they are now crushing the north and shelling Tel Aviv.

“Let’s call things by their names: once again, they did not tell us the truth. The residents of the north discovered that what they had been promised—that Hezbollah was not at the fence and that they were not under any threat—was not true.  Hezbollah fired more than 200 rockets in a single night, revealing launch capabilities, command and control abilities, and even the capacity to coordinate with the Iranians.

This brings us back to the question of responsibility: whose responsibility is what is happening here? Who is leading us in this war? The spokesperson of the Israel Defense Forces? The commander of the Northern Command? Who sets the objectives? Who knows what the exit point will be? And what are the things we will not compromise on?”

“Contrary to the statements, Hezbollah shows no signs of disintegration or collapse.
The heavy bombardment of Israel, alongside the launch of missiles from Iran, indicates the extent of Hezbollah’s ability to maintain its leadership and command-and-control capabilities.”
