US - Israel - Iran War: Trump May Declare Ceasefire Soon, Islamic Republic of Iran will not surrender, attacks , War continue says Supreme Leader

US - Israel - Iran War: Trump May Declare Ceasefire Soon, Islamic Republic of Iran will not surrender, attacks , War continue says Supreme Leader

Until we ensure there will be no more attacks in our land in the future, the war will continue, Iranian President Tells Macron 

Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei rejected proposals sent to Iran’s foreign ministry by intermediaries, telling a foreign policy meeting, “It is not the time for peace,”.

There are indications that American President Donald Trump May may unilaterally go ahead to declare Ceasefire at any moment from now in the ongoing war against Iran.

Also, Iran has rejected Trump's ceasefire request and intends to seek revenge against the United States, according to Reuters.

Tehran received a ceasefire proposal through two intermediaries, but new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei rejected it, the agency reports.

Khamenei's position on revenge against the United States and Israel at the first meeting was "very tough and serious," a Reuters source emphasized.

Trump, meanwhile, has publicly stated several times that he allegedly doesn't want a "deal" because it isn't good enough. "Now is not the time for peace. US and Israel must be defeated."

The empire thought killing the father would break the son. It didn't.

No ceasefire. No surrender. No submission.

The US wants an exit. Iran wants victory.

The war continues. On Iran's terms.


Iran confirms Ali Karijani's Elimination by Israel

As Israeli forces also continue to carry out attacks on Terhan, an Iranian official sent a very short message to an @iranwire reporter who asked about Larijani's death: It is true...

While the Israeli leaders confirmed the elimination of the Iranian top man, the government of Iran hasn't announced it yet. But, if true, it's the start of the most chaotic phase of post-Khamenei Iran. The regime has lost one of the most influential and ruthlessly efficient insiders.

On the need and reason for the war to continue, Iran president was on phone call with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron as United States President Donald Trump was obviously ready to end the war with Tehran.

Iranian President wrote on his official X handle: In my conversation with the president of France, Emmanuel Macron, I emphasized that Iran did not begin this atrocious war. Defending against invasion is a natural right, in which we are good at.

Using the American bases against Iran in the region, with the purpose of disturbing our relations with our neighbors, should be stopped.

Peace and stability in the region, cannot be achieved while disregarding the Zionist-American invasion in our country. The Islamic Republic of Iran will not surrender to bullies.

We expect the global community to condemn this invasion and convince invaders to respect international laws.

Commencing a war in order to conquest, based on false information, is a medieval act in 21st century

Speaking of ending the war, is meaningless, until we ensure there will be no more attacks in our land in the future.

Donald Trump: “Big Wave” of US Military Action Against Iran Is Still To Come

Donald Trump: “Big Wave” of US Military Action Against Iran Is Still To Come


United States President Donald Trump has said a “big wave” of US military action against Iran is still to come, describing the current campaign as only the beginning, and claimed 49 Iranian leaders were killed in initial strikes.


According to a Blomberg, the UAE and Qatar are privately lobbying allies to help them persuade Trump to reach for an off-ramp that would keep US military operations against Iran short, sources say.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said US and Israel's attacks on hospitals strike at life itself. Attacks on schools target a nation's future. Targeting patients and children blatantly violates humanitarian principles. The world must condemn it. I stand with my grieving nation. Iran will not remain silent or yield to these crimes.


According to an AFP report, Trump says Iran operations likely to last 4 to 5 weeks, but says he's prepared "to go far longer than that."

US will regrets miscalculation: Iran is ready for a long war, unlike Washington - Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani

US will regrets miscalculation: Iran is ready for a long war, unlike Washington - Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani

 A Senior Iranian official, Ali Larijani has said Iran has prepared for a long war and is acting only in self-defense in the current conflict with the United States and Israel.


In a post on his X page, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said Iran did not start the war and that its armed forces had engaged only in defensive action. He said Iran would defend itself “regardless of the costs” and would make its enemies regret what he called a miscalculation.



Prof Mirandi of Tehran University was also reportedly said that Iran has been preparing for this since the Iraq invasion of 2003.

They knew that they would be next sometime in the future

Hence, Iran may never involved in any ceasefire against the United States and Israel as a retaliations for all the Iranian leaders killed including the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic Ayatollah.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Monday said the conflict with Iran “is not Iraq” and would not become an endless war, describing current operations as limited and focused on eliminating specific military threats.

“This is not endless,” Hegseth said at a news conference, adding that the mission was “clear, devastating and decisive” and aimed at destroying Iran’s offensive missile capabilities, missile production and naval assets so that it will “never have nuclear weapons.”

Will Iran stop the retaliatory attacks for any negotiations with the US and Israeli? 

Iranian Gen. Jabbar has said the Americans have relocated the majority of their aircraft to Cyprus; we will launch so many missiles at Cyprus that they will be forced to flee from there as well.


According to a report by Al Jazeera, US Air Force General Dan Caine, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, says the joint US-Israeli attacks on Iran is "not a single overnight mission... We expect to take additional losses."

All U.S. military bases have been placed on heightened alert under Threat Condition signaling an increased risk of attack.

Spain has officially barred the United States from using its bases to support strikes on Iran, says PM Pedro Sánchez.

According to Tehran Times, the Iran's IRGC has reportedly destroyed the oil tanker Stena Imperative, which was flying the United States flag, while it was in the port of Bahrain. The vessel was hit by Iranian drone or missile fire on Monday, according to the Reuters and other outlets that cited the maritime security firm Vanguard Tech. There was no immediate comment from US authorities.

IRGC in a statement on Monday said: We’ve just started using the 2nd generation missiles today. In the upcoming days, you’ll witness the 3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th generation missiles if needed. 

Gen. Jabbari: To date, we have launched approximately 3,000 first- and second-generation missiles and approximately 10,000 drones

In the coming days, we will certainly deploy third- and fourth-generation missiles.

Iran says has ‘no choice’ but to fight back, holds no enmity toward American people

Tehran and it's allied armed groups fired missiles at Israel, Arab states and U.S. military targets around the region on Monday, while Israel and the United States pounded Iran as the war expanded to several fronts. Kuwait mistakenly shot down three American warplanes over its skies.

No Regime Change in Iran — Kremlin warns US as Russian Warships Hold Position in Strait of Hormuz with IRAN

No Regime Change in Iran — Kremlin warns US as Russian Warships Hold Position in Strait of Hormuz with IRAN


Russia Federation on warned the United States that there won't be a regime change in Iran especially the external induced change in Tehran will not be allowed.

On February 20, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia Sergey Lavrov and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Iran Abbas Araghchi held a telephone conversation.


The Foreign Ministers exchanged views on the current situation regarding the Iranian nuclear programme, including in light of the recent indirect US-Iran contacts held in Geneva.

The Russian Side reaffirmed its support for a negotiation process aimed at finding fair political and diplomatic solutions while fully respecting Iran’s legitimate rights in accordance with the principles of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.

The Ministers also touched upon certain issues on the bilateral agenda of mutual interest.


In another related development, Russia"No Regime Change as We monitor an unprecedented escalation around IRAN" Russian Warships Hold Position in Strait of Hormuz with IRAN.

Dimitry Peskov who is the Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin noted the escalation is "singular" or historic in scale but expressed hope for negotiations. This aligns with Moscow's broader stance of supporting Iran while avoiding direct entanglement.

As Iran's close partner, Russia reaffirmed ongoing ties (including the drills) but positioned itself as favoring diplomacy.

Russia opposes external efforts at regime change in Iran, viewing them as violations of sovereignty and destabilizing. For instance, Russian officials have criticized US approaches that could lead to overthrowing the Iranian government, framing such actions as incitement or unlawful interference.


Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and other Russian officials and diplomats have explicitly condemned Western "plots" for regime change in Iran.


The United States and Iran concluded a second round of indirect negotiations mediated by Oman on Tuesday, with both sides acknowledging progress amid a growing American military buildup in the region.


Shortly after the Geneva talks, US Vice President JD Vance described the process as productive "in some ways," but said Tehran was "not yet willing" to engage on some of Trump's "red lines."


Araghchi said talks showed progress, describing the atmosphere as "more constructive."


US President Donald Trump has significantly stepped up American military presence in the region, deploying the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group, with the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier on its way to the region, along with additional fighter jets.


The Geneva meeting was the second round of negotiations since US President Donald Trump ordered strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities during the 12-day Iran-Israel war last June. The first round was held in Muscat, Oman, on Feb. 6.


On Thursday, Trump said it will be clear if it is possible to make a deal with Iran "over the next probably 10 days," warning that Washington "may have to take it a step further" if negotiations fall short.

Earlier, the Kremlin called on Iran and all regional partners to "exercise restraint and caution," describing the tensions as "unprecedented."

US amasses strike force for ‘unprovoked aggression’ against Iran says an analyst as Trump says US must make 'meaningful deal' with Iran, 'otherwise bad things happen'

US amasses strike force for ‘unprovoked aggression’ against Iran says an analyst as Trump says US must make 'meaningful deal' with Iran, 'otherwise bad things happen'


As American President Donald Trump is on the brink of a war on Iran that has been decades in the making, the US military buildup ongoing in the Middle East is aimed at “inflicting serious damage on Iran,” military analyst Dmitry Drozdenko tells Sputnik.

Trump urges #Iran to strike a “meaningful” deal as a huge American military build-up takes shape in the Middle East amid US threats of action against Tehran.“US escalation is driven by the recognition that neither Israel’s Iron Dom nor patriot defense system can curtailed Irankiran missiles.

No doubt Donald Trump is now seen as a bigger threat to global peace than even Russia by some of America’s former allies. Arleigh Burke-class destroyers with SM-3 and SM-6 interceptors can fully neutralize Iran’s missile arsenal,” says the pundit. The US has been the biggest threat to global peace for a good number of decades. They are the world's terrorists.

Meanwhile, Trump, at Board of Peace meeting, says US must make 'meaningful deal' with Iran, 'otherwise bad things happen'. Maybe we are going to make a deal, You are going to be finding out over the next probably 10 days. We may have to take it a step further (military)

A second American aircraft carrier — the USS Gerald R. Ford — is heading toward the Middle East amid rising tensions with Iran, accompanied by destroyers and aircraft being redeployed from missions in the Caribbean region, a U.S. ABC News reported.

As negotiations between the U.S. and Iran over Tehran's nuclear program continue, American aircraft carriers are at the forefront of a major U.S. military buildup in the Middle East. The Ford is expected to join the USS Abraham Lincoln in the region, the latter having arrived there late last month.

The Ford briefly transmitted its location off the coast of Morocco on Wednesday as it approached the Mediterranean Sea, according to data from the MarineTraffic website. The carrier's location was visible for around two hours.

Also visible on the FlightRadar24 website on Wednesday were two C-2A Greyhound aircraft, which in recent months have been operating off the carrier. The aircraft transmitted their locations off the coast of Portugal, around 230 miles from the Ford's position.


The Ford is being accompanied by four destroyers as it sails east toward the Middle East.

Three of the destroyers are part of the Ford’s carrier strike group that have accompanied the carrier since it first deployed in June, the fourth destroyer had previously been a part of President Donald Trump's administration’s surge of military forces in the Caribbean, a U.S. official confirmed to ABC News.

Each of the destroyers is armed with air defense systems that can shoot down incoming missiles and drones, plus Tomahawk cruise missiles that can be used to strike targets up to 1,000 miles away.

F-35 stealth fighter jets are among the U.S. assets heading toward the Middle East, including some that had been deployed to Puerto Rico ahead of the U.S. operation to depose Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.


A spokesman for the Vermont National Guard confirmed to ABC News that the 158th Fighter Wing received a change in mission from U.S. Southern Command -- which oversees operations in the Caribbean, Central and South America -- but did not disclose their new deployment area.

In late January, online flight trackers noted a dozen F-35 fighters taking off from Roosevelt Roads Naval Station in Puerto Rico and landing on the Azores islands in the mid-Atlantic, on their way to the Middle East.


Key Iranian nuclear personnel and facilities were targeted by Israeli and American forces during an intense 12-day conflict in June. But the strikes failed to resolve long-standing U.S. and Israeli grievances related to Tehran's nuclear program, its ballistic missile arsenal and its support for regional proxy groups.


U.S. and Iranian representatives met in Geneva, Switzerland, this week for talks regarding a possible deal related to Tehran's nuclear program and its enrichment of uranium. Trump has demanded that Iran commit to "zero enrichment," a proposal rejected by Iranian officials.


U.S. officials briefed on the negotiations said Iran indicated a willingness to suspend its nuclear enrichment for a certain amount of time, anywhere from one to five years


The U.S. is also weighing lifting financial and banking sanctions and the embargo on its oil sales, according to a U.S. official.


Following the talks in Geneva, Iran is expected to submit a written proposal aimed at resolving the tensions, a senior U.S. official confirmed to reporters on Wednesday. It is unclear when the written proposal will be submitted to the U.S.


On Tuesday, a White House official said Iran would provide detailed proposals to address "some of the open gaps in our positions" in the next two weeks.

The US President reiterated on Thursday: "We may have to take it a step further [than Operation Midnight Hammer], or we may not."

"Maybe we are going to make a deal. You are going to be finding out over the next probably 10 days."

"Iran would have had a nuclear weapon based on everything we found out since within one month [if we didn't do Operation Midnight Hammer].
We can't let that happen."

"They cannot continue to threaten the stability of the entire region. They must make a deal. If it doesn’t happen, bad things will happen."

The opinion of many on the US carrier groups are that the modern warfare no longer required such a US approach. While it's general agreed that in the eventuality of war between Iran and US with allies, the fall of Iran will never be like that of Iraq or Libya in the face of Iranian missiles that humbled Israel in the 12daya war.

US freezes assets of eight Nigerians over Boko Haram, ISIL, cybercrime links

Trump 

The United States America which officially designated the Nigeria's islamists Terrorists Boko Haram a foreign terrorist organisation in 2013 has freezes assets of eight Nigerians over Boko Haram, ISIL, cybercrime links.

The US State Department claimed that the group has carried out numerous deadly attacks across northern and northeastern Nigeria, as well as the Lake Chad Basin, since 2009. 

US President Donald Trump announced in October 2025, for the second time that Nigeria would be added to the US Department of State’s list of “Countries of Particular Concern,” citing alleged religious freedom violations and Christian genocide. 

Nigeria was first designated in 2020 under Trump during his first term but was removed from the list by former President Joe Biden shortly after he assumed office.

There were claims that insecurity in Nigeria was founded in t President Barrak Obama in a desperate agenda to to remove President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 and put in place the pro terrorists regime of APC. There have never been any counter claims that APC imported and brought more Fulani Terrorists machineries from other West African countries into the country.


FULL LIST :

Sanctioned Nigerians (as named by OFAC):

Salih Yusuf Adamu (also known as Salihu Yusuf)

Babestan Oluwole Ademulero

Abu Abdullah ibn Umar Al-Barnawi

Abu Musab Al-Barnawi

Khaled Al-Barnawi

Ibrahim Ali Alhassan

Abu Bakr ibn Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Mainuki


 US frozen the assets of the above eight Nigerians linked to the Islamic sect Boko Haram and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).

According to the detailed in a 3,000-page document released on February 10 by the U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). 


The document also identifies individuals sanctioned for cybercrime and other security threats, following recent U.S. Congressional recommendations for visa bans and asset freezes on those accused of violating religious freedom and persecuting Christians in Nigeria. 

US lawmakers have recommended visa bans and asset freezes against the former Governor of Kano State, Rabiu Kwankwaso, the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, and Miyetti Allah Kautal, over alleged links to extremist activities.

 The recommendation was contained in a document released by the US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) titled “Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List.”

 The publication outlines individuals and entities whose assets have been frozen and serves as a reference tool for compliance with US sanctions regimes, particularly those related to counter-terrorism. 

According to Office of Foreign Assets Control, the move forms part of broader efforts to block the property and interests of designated individuals and prevent financial dealings with them. 

“This publication of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control is designed as a reference tool providing actual notice of actions by OFAC with respect to Specially Designated Nationals and other persons … whose property is blocked, to assist the public in complying with the various sanctions programmes administered by OFAC,” the agency said.


Among those listed is Salih Yusuf Adamu, also known as Salihu Yusuf, born August 23, 1990, in Nigeria. OFAC identified him as having ties to Boko Haram. Yusuf was among six Nigerians convicted in 2022 in the United Arab Emirates for setting up a Boko Haram cell to raise funds for insurgents in Nigeria. The group attempted to transfer $782,000 from Dubai to Nigeria.


Another individual, Babestan Oluwole Ademulero, born March 4, 1953, was designated under SDNTK sanctions and listed under multiple aliases, including Wole A. Babestan and Olatunde Irewole Shofeso.


Also sanctioned were Abu Abdullah ibn Umar Al-Barnawi (also known as Ba Idrisa), Abu Musab Al-Barnawi (Habib Yusuf), Khaled (Khalid) Al-Barnawi, Ibrahim Ali Alhassan, and Abu Bakr ibn Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Mainuki, all identified as having links to Boko Haram or ISIL. Several of the individuals were born in Maiduguri or other parts of Borno State and were sanctioned under terrorism-related executive orders.


Additionally, Nnamdi Orson Benson, born March 21, 1987, was listed under CYBER2 sanctions for cyber-related offences and was reported to hold a Nigerian passport.


The sanctions mean that all property and interests of the listed individuals within US jurisdiction are blocked, and US persons are prohibited from engaging in transactions with them. 

Hence, Nigerians named under the sanctions face asset freezes under Executive Order 13224.

Why American Donald Trump' Back down on Tehran: Classified report says USS Abraham Lincoln, carrying nuclear weapons, would not survive against Iran’s precision missiles

Why American Donald Trump' Back down on Tehran: Classified report says USS Abraham Lincoln, carrying nuclear weapons, would not survive against Iran’s precision missiles


A classified report obtained by Prime Trust revealed that the United States refrained from attacking Iran after learning that the USS Abraham Lincoln, carrying nuclear weapons, would not survive against Iran’s precision missiles.


The USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN Carrier Strike Group has been confirmed to have sailed due east, away from the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea and is currently holding position approximately 1100 km from Iran.

 

The report states that Iran currently possesses over 3,000 precision-guided missiles, along with a large number of Shaheed drones.


The main challenge that caused the U.S. to pull back was the high number of Fateh-110 missiles Iran currently has.

Other reports on Trump’s statements further indicate U.S. President Donald Trump’s caution regarding his threats to attack Iran, as he shifted back toward negotiations and the peace table, instead of relying on military force.


 The Trump administration has told Iran through multiple channels that it is open to meeting to negotiate a deal, promising it is serious negotiations and not a bluff. 


Multiple Arab countries are trying to arrange a meeting in Ankara between Steve Witkoff and Iranian officials. 


According to Israeli Chwmnel 11, "Trump wants to dismantle Iran's nuclear program, but Israel demands the dismantling of its missile capabilities."


Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei in a public event in Tehran said Americans must realize that if they ignite a war, this time it will not be a limited war, but a regional war.


- The Americans have been issuing threats in their statements in the past, saying that "all options are on the table," including the option of war.


- This man (Trump) keeps claiming that they have brought in aircraft carriers and other things, but the Iranian people should not be intimidated by such things; the Iranian people are not affected by these threats.


- We are not the ones who initiate things, and we do not want to attack any country, but the Iranian people will deliver a strong and decisive blow to anyone who attacks or harms them.

Saudi Arabia to Trump: Strike Iran or you will see Tehran grow stronger.

Saudi Arabia to Trump: Strike Iran or you will see Tehran grow stronger.


Saudi Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman made it clear in a statement during a special briefing session in Washington yesterday Friday.


Prince Khalid bin Salman told the audience, including heads of research centers and American officials, that if President Trump does not carry out his repeated threats to strike Iran, "that will only lead to emboldening the regime", and that Tehran will come out of it stronger. 


This represents a notable shift in the tone of the public Saudi position, which emphasized de-escalation, opposition to the broader war, and refused to allow the United States to use Saudi airspace or land to strike against Iran.

Escalation: Iran’s Navy Commander Alireza Tangsiri Warns Trump to Move His Armada out of the Persian Gulf or Face Consequences:

Escalation: Iran’s Navy Commander Alireza Tangsiri Warns Trump to Move His Armada out of the Persian Gulf or Face Consequences:

 


Iranian Navy Commander Alireza Tangsiri has Warned the United States President Donald Trump to Move His Armada out of the Persian Gulf or Face Consequences.

According to him: “The Persian Gulf belongs to Iran and its neighbors. America must get out of our region — or face the consequences.”



According to a social media report by the Iran military, the conflict has officially escalated as reports confirm that one American fighter jet has been shot down. This development marks a serious turning point, raising fears of wider military confrontation and increased global tensions as the situation continues to unfold rapidly.It won't be a walk in the park for Trump forces


According to Muhammad Zavad Zarif, Donald Trump' wants to wage an illegitimate and unjust war against Iran. " And we have good reasons to defend ourselves."


And we will defend our Patriots until death. He said.

If Trump thinks he can carry out a quick operation and then tweet two hours later that it’s over, there is no such thing at all. Without a doubt, the war would include the entire region, from the Zionist regime to countries where the U.S. has bases.


If the enemy takes a foolish step, we will respond immediately, that is the directive given to us. In the past, it was necessary to conduct situation assessments, but now the instructions have already been issued in advance.


Plans have been formulated, and for every different scenario on the enemy’s side, we will have an appropriate and proportional response.


In the 12-day war, we learned that delay and giving the enemy an opportunity are absolutely unjustified, and an immediate response is required.


Aircraft carriers are very vulnerable to missiles.


In an another report, a retired U.S. military officer  was reported to have revealed that a U.S. aircraft carrier had to make a sudden, extreme maneuver to dodge a missile from Yemen, it is so intense that an F-18 fighter jet fell into the sea during the incident.


The F-18 fighter Jet fall from the carrier in to the sea and they have loose it.


This is the kind of situation the U.S. Navy is escape from Yemen.


Automatically this is defeat and end of their carrier if Iranian army launch their ICBMS on it. 


Definitely, IRAN will sink this carrier in an all out war.

The primary targets will be Israel and all US military bases across the Middle East region.


“A limited military strike is an illusion


Ali Shamkhani who is an Adviser to Imam Khamenei in the Defense Council said any military action by America, from any origin and at any level, is considered the beginning of a war, and its response will be immediate, comprehensive, and unprecedented, targeting the aggressor, the heart of Tel Aviv, and all supporters of the aggressor.”


Any military action on our part - from any source and at any level - will be considered the beginning of war, and our response will be immediate, comprehensive and unprecedented, targeting the heart of Tel Aviv and those who support the aggressor.


Iran’s mission to the United Nations just sent a strong warning to the United States.


In their warning issue, they reminded the U.S. of the cost of past military interventions, saying that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq drained US over $7 trillion and resulted in the deaths of more than 7,000 American troops.


At the same time, Iran says it is still open to talks...  but only on the basis of mutual respect and shared interests.


However, the Iranian gov. Emphasize that If IRAN  is pushed to the last corner, it will defend itself and respond in a way the U.S. has “NEVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE.”


Imminent war preceded by maneuvers: IRAN to Conduct Maritime Maneuvers with CHINA and RUSSIA in Coming Days to signal US and allies!!


Iranian Navy is planning to conduct joint military exercises with China and Russia in the Sea of Oman also known as the Gulf of Oman and the Indian Ocean in the coming days.

The world holds its breath as Iran prepares to close the global oil lifeline amid unprecedented U.S. readiness.

Iran has warned ships at sea that it plans to conduct live-fire naval exercises in the Strait of Hormuz, potentially disrupting traffic through one of the world’s key oil routes.


According to a notice sent to mariners on Thursday, the “naval live-fire drills” are scheduled for Sunday and Monday. About 20% of global oil shipments pass through the strait, raising concerns about possible disruptions.

The warning comes as the United States conducts a multi-day air force exercise in The Middle West amid ongoing tensions with Iran.


The U.S. Central Command said the drills aim to demonstrate the ability to deploy and sustain air power across the region, a day after the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier arrived in The Middle West.


The Saudi defense minister had arrived the US together with the head of Israeli intelligence hoped to coordinate the attacks against Iran.


MBS recently called President Pezeshkian, and Saudi Arabia has conveyed messages from the Iranian leadership to the US. The militarization of the Strait of Hormuz has greatly alarmed the countries of the region.


The U.S. Secretary of War stated  that America is fully prepared to execute any decision the President makes regarding Iran.

NIGERIA'S ARMY CHIEF CHARGES TROOPS IN SOKOTO TO MAINTAIN OPERATIONAL MOMENTUM, DECISIVELY CRUSH BANDITS, TERRORISTS

NIGERIA'S ARMY CHIEF CHARGES TROOPS IN SOKOTO TO MAINTAIN OPERATIONAL MOMENTUM, DECISIVELY CRUSH BANDITS, TERRORISTS

 


The Nigeria's Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Waidi Shaibu, has charged troops of 8 Division Sokoto and Joint Task Force, Operation FANSAN YAMMA, to sustain the current operational tempo and decisively eliminate bandits and terrorists operating within the 8 Division Area of Responsibility.


General Shaibu gave the charge on 27 December 2025, while addressing troops of 248 Reconnaissance Battalion, Illela, Sokoto State, during an operational visit to Formations and Units under the 8 Division Area of Responsibility.


According to the Acting Director Army Public Relations  Colonel Appolonia Anele, the COAS commended the troops for their gallantry, professionalism and resilience in confronting criminal elements whose activities have brought untold hardship to innocent Nigerians. He lauded their operational successes, noting that their sustained efforts have significantly improved security within the Area of Responsibility.


“I commend you for your courage, professionalism and the operational successes recorded so far. Your sacrifices have translated into improved security in your Area of Responsibility. You must maintain the momentum to further annihilate and send the terrorists to their maker who is to decide what to do with them. We can no longer tolerate their excesses against the Nigerian people” the COAS stated.


The Army Chief further reassured the troops of his unwavering commitment to their welfare. He directed the construction of additional accommodation, medical and other essential facilities at Illela Barracks to enhance the morale, well-being and operational effectiveness of troops and their families.


On the late night of Christmas day, United States President Donald Trump ordered precision missile strikes against the ISIS linked Terrorists hideout in Sokoto State. Nigerian government also claimed having the full knowledge of it and that the mission was successful.


Until Trump's rhetorics, the APC led pro Terrorists government have remained unconcerned about the callous activities of the Terrorists against the innocent citizens. Children and students are being kidnapped at will where government officials are negotiating with them. Many of these criminals were reportedly brought into the CV country by the APC leadership in their myopic determination to capture the government in 2015.

American Strikes On Terrorists: Tambuwal Commends Professionalism, Urges Communities To Remain Calm, Law Abiding

American Strikes On Terrorists: Tambuwal Commends Professionalism, Urges Communities To Remain Calm, Law Abiding


Former Governor of Sokoto State and the Senator Representing the Sokoto South Senatorial district Aminu Tambuwal has called on the citizens in Sokoto State to be peaceful and law abiding as the United States in partnership with the Nigerian Federal Government strikes the Terrorists hideout in Sokoto State.


Former Speaker of the Federal House Of Representatives said: 'I have noted the reports concerning an airstrike carried out as part of ongoing counterterrorism efforts through cooperation between the Federal Government of Nigeria and the United States. I urge our communities to remain calm and law abiding as relevant authorities clarify the circumstances surrounding the operation.'


"I wish to assure the people of Sokoto South that I am in active talks with relevant security authorities to obtain full details and ensure that all necessary safeguards are upheld."


"It is important to reassure the public that counterterrorism operations are targeted at criminal and terrorist elements who threaten our collective safety, and not at innocent civilians who are themselves victims of insecurity. The protection of civilian lives remains paramount and remains central to all legitimate security operations."


Tambuwal 

"I commend the courage and professionalism of our military and security forces, who continue to work tirelessly, often in collaboration with international partners, to confront terrorism and banditry under extremely challenging conditions. Their sacrifice and commitment to restoring peace and stability deserve our full support and cooperation.


"I also call on community leaders, traditional institutions, and residents to continue working closely with security agencies by sharing credible information and resisting misinformation that could heighten fear or tension.


"Together, through unity, vigilance, and support for lawful security efforts, we will overcome the forces of terror and secure lasting peace for Sokoto State and Nigeria at large. -AWTI have noted the reports concerning an airstrike carried out as part of ongoing counterterrorism efforts through cooperation between the Federal Government of Nigeria and the United States.

United States President Donald Trump was true to his promises to lunch attacks against the Boko Haram/ISWAP/Herdsmen terrorists that have killed thousands of innocent and harmless citizens, displaced millions with thousands in IDP camps.

Without the foreign intervention from the US, the APC led Nigeria government and the military have demonstrated low level of seriousness in tackling the Terrorists as the campaigns have been seen as businesses. Corruption scandals have been previously recorded in arms deals. 

The country's Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC some of the retired Generals. Under the APC pro terrorists regime between 2015 till date, billions of US dollars have been wasted without results while Terrorists are operating freely without any security restrictions. Government Negotiating with the Terrorists have become norms before the American intervention

Nigeria Government Confirms US Security Forces Hit At Terrorists Targets In Nigeria's Far North

Nigeria Government Confirms US Security Forces Hit At Terrorists Targets In Nigeria's Far North

Nigeria's government has confirmed a US led strikes on the Terrorists Targets in the country's troubling Northern region in what the government called NIGERIA -UNITED STATES SECURITY COOPERATION.



According to the Press Statement: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Republic of Nigeria confirms that Nigerian authorities remain engaged in structured security cooperation with international partners, including the United States of America, in addressing the persistent threat of terrorism and violent extremism. This has led to precision hits on terrorist targets in Nigeria by air strikes in the North West.

In line with established international practice and bilateral understandings, this cooperation includes the exchange of intelligence, strategic coordination, and other forms of support consistent with international law, mutual respect for sovereignty, and shared commitments to regional and global security.

Nigeria reiterates that all counter-terrorism efforts are guided by the primacy of protecting civilian lives, safeguarding national unity, and upholding the rights and dignity of all citizens, irrespective of faith or ethnicity. Terrorist violence in any form whether directed at Christians, Muslims, or other communities remains an affront to Nigeria's values and to international peace and security.

The Federal Government continues to work closely with its partners through established diplomatic and security channels to weaken terrorist networks, disrupt their financing and logistics, and prevent cross-border threats, while strengthening Nigeria's own security institutions and intelligence capabilities.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will continue to engage relevant partners and keep the public informed through appropriate official channels

Donald Trump Confirms US Carried out "powerful and deadly" Strikes against Islamic State forces in Nigeria

Donald Trump Confirms US Carried out "powerful and deadly" Strikes against Islamic State forces in Nigeria


American President Donald Trump said Thursday night that he'd launched a "powerful and deadly" U.S. strike against Islamic State forces in Nigeria, after spending weeks accusing the Bola Ahmed Tinubu led pro Terrorists government of failing to rein in the persecution of Christians.



According to the US President: "Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!" 

The president posted on his social media site. His post did not include information about how the strike was carried out, nor what effects it had. But the U.S. Africa Command posted on X that it had "conducted a strike at the request of Nigerian authorities in Soboto State killing multiple ISIS terrorists."


"Lethal strikes against ISIS demonstrate the strength of our military and our commitment to eliminating terrorist threats against Americans at home and abroad," its post said.


The Defense Department did not immediately answer requests for comment.


In response to Trump's previous criticisms, Nigeria's government says that people of many faiths, not just Christians, have suffered attacks at the hands of extremists groups.


However, the truth remains that the primary targets of the northern Oligarchy sponsored terrors are Christians and have surfer thousands of casualties while the APC led federal government weren't serious about the fight against the insurgents. Thousands are in IDPs.

Still, last month, Trump said he'd ordered the Pentagon to begin planning for potential military action in Nigeria following the claims of Christian persecution. The State Department has also announced it would restrict visas for Nigerians and their family members involved in mass killings and violence against Christians in the West African country.


And the U.S. recently designated Nigeria a "country of particular concern" under the International Religious Freedom Act.


"I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was," Trump wrote in his Christmas night post.


He said that U.S. defense officials had "executed numerous perfect strikes, as only the United States is capable of doing" and added that "our Country will not allow Radical Islamic Terrorism to prosper."


Nigeria's population of 220 million is split almost equally between Christians and Muslims. The country has long faced insecurity from various fronts including the Boko Haram extremist group, which seeks to establish its radical interpretation of Islamic law and has also targeted Muslims it deems not Muslim enough.


But attacks in Nigeria often have varying motives. There are religiously motivated ones targeting both Christians and Muslims, clashes between farmers and herders over dwindling resources, communal rivalries, secessionist groups and ethnic clashes.


The U.S. security footprint has diminished in Africa, where military partnerships have either been scaled down or canceled. U.S. forces likely would have to be drawn from other parts of the world for any military intervention in Nigeria.


Trump has nonetheless kept up the pressure as Nigeria faced a series of attacks on schools and churches in violence that experts and residents say targets both Christians and Muslims.


Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth posted Thursday night on X: "The President was clear last month: the killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria (and elsewhere) must end."


Hegseth said that U.S. military forces are "always ready, so ISIS found out tonight — on Christmas" and added, "More to come…Grateful for Nigerian government support & cooperation" before signing off, "Merry Christmas!"

War Against Terrorism: US Military Considering Plans For Potential Strikes in Nigeria, 3 options on the table

War Against Terrorism: US Military Considering Plans For Potential Strikes in Nigeria, 3 options on the table


The United States military has reportedly drafted contingency plans for possible military action in Nigeria following an order from President Donald Trump to "prepare to intervene" and protect Christians from attacks by Islamic militants. 


The plans, according to a source was submitted by US Africa Command (AFRICOM) to the Department of War include three options.

The first option is a 'Heavy Option'  Wich will involve deploying an aircraft carrier strike group to the Gulf of Guinea and launching fighter jets or long-range bombers to hit militant targets deep inside northern Nigeria.


The second option is termed 'Medium Option'. This option will employ targeted drone strikes using MQ-9 Reaper and MQ-1 Predator drones against known militant camps, convoys, and vehicles.


While the third option  called 'Light Option' will operate on providing and  Supporting Nigerian forces through intelligence sharing and logistics which will also activate joint operations against Boko Haram and other Islamist groups in the country.


Meanwhile, top military officials admit that limited airstrikes or drone operations may not end Nigeria's decades-long insurgency, and a full-scale campaign similar to Iraq or Afghanistan is unlikely. The Nigerian government has expressed concerns about US interference, emphasizing respect for Nigeria's sovereignty and territorial integrity.


Nigerians have been suffering hells in the hands of different militias and Islamic terrorists groups since the Boko Haram onslaught that started in Borno State in 2009. ISWAP, bandits, herdsmen and many other armed groups have exterminated many innocent lives. APC government was enthroned in 2015 on the background of promises to end insecurity, end hunger and creation of million jobs per annum.

 

Both the incumbent Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his predecessor Major General Muhammadu Buhari have failed to genuinely fight the insurgency as government officials and military officers involved in proxy negotiations with the Terrorists.

Amnesty was reportedly offered to many of the so called repentant terrorists. The military becomes more ineffective as many of them too were reported to have been absolved into the military while the Victims of terrorism were never cared for and the displaced remained in various IDPs. The genocide and displacement are also aimed at taken over of the conquered areas by the bandits, Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen. Certainly there are enablers in APC led federal government as well as security apparatus of the Nigerian State. 


Non Muslim communities have been the primary targets. Hence the claims of genocide against Christians in Nigeria.

Invasion of Nigeria: China will not dictate for US, says Moore

Invasion of Nigeria: China will not dictate for US, says Moore


US Rep. Riley Moore has said the United States President Donald Trump was absolutely right to defend brothers and sisters in Christ who are suffering horrific persecution in the hands of organized Jihadists in Nigeria 

Moore added,  even martyrdom, for their faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

According to him, China will not dictate America's foreign policy , and US will not be lectured to by a Communist autocracy that recently arrested 30 Christian pastors for their faith and throws ethnic minorities in concentration camps.


Earlier, the People's Republic of China has expressed strong support for Bola Tinubu's led APC federal government administration, while warning against foreign interference in Nigeria's internal affairs, following a recent threat by President Trump.

 In Beijing on Tuesday, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Mao Ning, stated that China firmly opposes the use of religion or human rights as a pretext to meddle in the domestic affairs of sovereign nations.

 "As Nigeria's comprehensive strategic partner, China firmly supports the Nigerian government in leading its people on the development path suited to its national conditions," Mao said. 

"China firmly opposes any country using religion and human rights as an excuse to interfere in other countries' internal affairs, and threatening other countries with sanctions and force," she added. 

Her comments were made in response to Trump's recent remarks, which threatened possible military action against Nigeria over alleged persecution of Christians — a claim the Nigerian government has strongly denied.

 The U.S. State Department redesignated Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern (CPC) on October 31, citing alleged mass killings of Christians, which sparked diplomatic tension between both nations. 

Ning's statement is seen as a show of solidarity with Nigeria as the diplomatic tension between the West African country and the United States intensifies.

Nigerian citizens have suffered deaths in the hands of Boko Haram, ISWAP terrorists, Fulani herdsmen, bandits and many other armed bandits kidnapping for ransoms. Going by the pedigree and capacity of the dreaded Nigerian Army, insurgents of any magnitude may never survive this long without internal political and foreign so support for the terrorists.

It is on records that APC rode to power in 2015 on the pretense electoral promises to end insecurities posted by Boko Haram and hunger in the country but had since been complicated with emergency of many and more terrors group s like Fulani herdsmen, bandits killings and commiting genocidal crimes in many states of the Nigerian federation.

Among the States where killings and displacement are happening include Borno, the epicenter of the Boko Haram/ ISWAP activities, Yobe, Sokoto, Kano, Zamfara, Kastina, Niger, Nasarawa, Plateau, Kaduna and recently Kwara State.

There have been bandits) Fulani herdsmen attacks in a Catholic church in Owo Ondo state and Herdsmen attacks at Igangan in OYo State in the Southwest of the country.


Christians have been the primary targets of the Jihadists in the country and genocide ate been committed in order to take over their lands.

Fir late president Major Gen Muhammadu Buhari in his Fulanistic agenda introduced different bills into the national assembly aimed to give passage of lands to the Fulani herdsmen that have adopted Nigeria as their final and permanent home but failed.

APC government of the country is openly considered a pro Terrorists, Jihadists and banditry one and the government have been negotiating with the criminals who are generally believed to have been brought into the country for the sake of any infavourabke eventuality of the 2015 general elections which eventually enthroned APC administration since then.
