🇺🇸🇮🇷 — Strategic U.S. Air Force aircraft are on the move to the CENTCOM area of responsibility to support larger-scale strikes against Iran. Yesterday, an E-11A BACN communications aircraft deployed from Robins AFB, Georgia, to Prince Sultan AB, Saudi Arabia. The E-11A's purpose is to aggregate U.S. communications between different datalinks/radios and allow connections between military units that otherwise wouldn't be able to connect. The E-11A will be used to allow for communications between different strike groups to coordinate operations against Iran. Right now, two EA-37B Compass Call electronic warfare aircraft are deploying from CONUS to Naval Support Activity Souda Bay, Greece. These aircraft will be used to disrupt Iranian air defenses, command and control, and communications through signal jamming. 📝 Expect strikes against Iran to intensify in the coming days.

🇮🇷 Tasnim agency publishes a lengthy paragraph citing Iranian officials. - The passage of ships through this Strait of Hormuz will be safe if it is done in coordination with Iran and according to the arrangements it sets. - Iran will not abandon its firm will to control Hormuz, and it sees this as a measure aimed at ensuring its long-term security. - The Americans should have realized that Iran is capable of targeting any location it chooses. - Any new gamble by Trump will only lead to another scandal for him (they are referring to midterms)

—🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump threatens Irna on Truth Social: ‘From this point forward, any time the Islamic Republic of Iran shoots at a ship in the Strait of Hormuz, whether it be missile, rocket, drone, or any other device or weapon, the United States will bomb and destroy ONE BRIDGE OR POWERPLANT, including those located next to, or in, the Capital City of Tehran.’

Like a thief in the night, Lebanon’s Prime Minister Nawaf Salam arrived in South Lebanon for a brief appearance, planted the Lebanese flag in Zawtar al-Gharbiya, staged a photo-op, and quickly departed. The visit came to a town that Israel falsely claimed to have “withdrawn” from following the agreement with Lebanon, despite never having established an actual occupation there. The appearance was designed to create the image that Nawaf Salam and President Joseph Aoun had achieved an Israeli withdrawal, when in reality, the village had never been occupied by Israel in the first place. No tangible achievement was made, and even yesterday, Israeli forces fired on the Lebanese Army in the same area. Instead of engaging with local residents or addressing their concerns, the visit appeared focused on symbolism rather than substance. A flag was raised, cameras captured the moment, and the Prime Minister left. No matter how much foreign powers attempt to shape the image of Nawaf Salam and Joseph Aoun, legitimacy is ultimately measured by the people. True leadership is built through presence, responsibility, and loyalty to the nation, not through surrendering to foreign pressure or submitting to American and Israeli demands. History judges leaders by the choices they make in moments of national crisis. When leaders abandon national sovereignty, betray the trust of their people, and submit to foreign demands, history will remember them as traitors to their nation. — Ibrahim Majed, Lebanese correspondent

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Arestovich stated that he was "forced" to talk about Russia's dwindling missile supply at the beginning of the full-scale war, when he was an advisor to the OP. "When I said that Russia had '...two or three days worth of missiles,' I was forced to vaguely support the official statement of all these '...respected speakers,' who said it first, starting with the Ukrainian Military Intelligence. We couldn't afford to break communication at the highest state level in March 2022. But they remembered me saying it" He also published a list of statements by Ukrainian authorities and Western media about Russia's imminent depletion of missiles. Arestovich was also remembered for his statement about the war ending in "2-3 weeks." Later, he said that he genuinely believed this, as he expected agreements to be reached as a result of negotiations in Istanbul, which, however, were disrupted.

🇧🇫The President of Burkina Faso, Ibrahim Traore, has vowed never to allow the practice of Sharia Law in the country. Traore issued the warning during a nationwide broadcast, where he frowned at citizens of the country studying Sharia Law in Saudi Arabia.

He said: “I am a Muslim, but everyone in Burkina Faso has the right to practice their own religion, there will never be Sharia law in this country. To those Burkinabè studying Sharia law in Saudi Arabia, do not return to Burkina Faso. “Instead of acquiring technological knowledge and skills that can help develop our country, you chose to study Sharia law. Stay where you are, you won’t be allowed back here."
