Tehran Rejects Washington's Claims on Strait of Hormuz Re-opening

Tehran Rejects Washington's Claims on Strait of Hormuz Re-opening

A Profile Picture 

The Islamic Republic of Iran has rejected the US Treasury Sec. Bessent's and Donald Trump's claims that the Strait of Hormuz will open tomorrow (Wednesday 5th August 2026) under a new deal

Tehran affirmed that the Iran-Oman Hormuz negotiations, held without US participation, are instead aimed at establishing an "intermediate corridor" that will halt both the current Iran-controlled northern and US-backed southern routes, giving Iran as a coastal state fully protected sovereignty, interests, and national security, Press TV reported.


 "Trump has violated his commitments, and Iran is moving forward with its plan to establish arrangements in the Strait independently of US threats, and it will succeed." 

 "Iran does not shape its interests and priorities based on schedule or demands of Trump."


The agreement with Oman would grant Iran total sovereign authority over all inbound maritime traffic, with Oman's limited role being to clear outbound vessels but only after notifying Iranian officials, ensuring Iran retains visibility and the option to intervene

American President Donald Trump sets a new deadline, giving Iran until the end of today to finalize a Strait of Hormuz agreement with Oman or face "devastating air strikes," per Bloomberg.

Trump adds "I want to give them every last chance before decapitation... You'll find out today."


The agreement with Oman however would not be something that Trump wants, a senior Iranian official tells reporters it would grant Iran total sovereign authority over all inbound maritime traffic, and Oman would clear outbound vessels only after notifying Iranian officials, ensuring Iran retains visibility and the option to intervene.


An Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson said on Tuesday talks with Oman over transit in the Strait of Hormuz are ongoing, according to state media


"Talks with Oman are “positive” at the technical and political levels", the spokesperson says


Talks are focused on designating safe inbound and outbound lanes in the strait, he added


Iran's Anti-Ship Ballistic Missile

As per the U.S. blockade against Iran.  American forces claimed they have redirected 45 commercial vessels, disabled 2 and boarded 2 to ensure compliance.


Tehran sources indicated that Iran's Armed Forces may soon Deploy their significant Anti-Ship Ballistic Missile arsenal against US Warships to Break the Naval Blockade.


These Iranian Missiles have not yet been Used in the current War.


All options to compelling Iran to American and Israeli terms in the needless aggression have failed to yield any positive results.

US-Iran-War: Trump has no more options against Iran, Washington will be forced to make major concessions to appease Tehran

US-Iran-War: Trump has no more options against Iran, Washington will be forced to make major concessions to appease Tehran


Escalations of the situations and war with Tehran are no longer parts of tenable, profitable , advisable and sustainable options on the Donald Trump's table at the moment.

Pressure either by sanctions and or by military escalations have all failed to deterred the Islamic Republic. Washington is left with no more viable options on either how to force Iran to concede to any of the Washington's favourable deals or on how to get out of the needles war against the Persians.

US CENTCOM sent an email to a broad group of military analysts last week saying "we are looking for new creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran" because "we need ideas," per CNN.


A source close to CENTCOM says "CENTCOM is looking at everything, acknowledging it needs to reevaluate the strategy." The crowdsourcing-style query, which military officials said was unusual over email, is one sign of the limited and potentially unpalatable options available to Trump to force Iran into a deal on his terms.


This comes a week after a US official said Trump is "exasperated" and there was "not a real strategy for how long or what they should do."


Iranian officials believe Donald Trump will ultimately be forced to make major concessions—including $300 billion reconstruction package—and accept Tehran's core demands as Washington falls into a strategic stranglehold, according to a Reuters.


Reuters reports that Tehran is pursuing a strategy of calibrated escalation, steadily increasing the economic and political costs for the U.S. and its allies until Washington becomes more willing to compromise—particularly over the Strait of Hormuz. 

Iranian officials believe sustained pressure will leave Donald Trump with little choice but to negotiate on Iran's terms.


While US President Donald Trump says that an agreement with Iran is imminent and new talks are set to begin, an Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson said that they 'are not going to host a delegation'. 

Trump's own US officials directly reject Trump's claim from last night that Iran negotiations are set to begin on Monday afternoon, saying there are no "new" or novel negotiations planned or ongoing, per CBS News.


This comes hours after Iran directly rejected Trump's claim of ongoing or new Monday negotiations.

Pakistan Says There Are No Scheduled Negotiations Between Iran & The US. Pakistan confirmed that no negotiations are currently scheduled between Tehran and Washington, despite President Trump’s statements that talks were set to begin.


Iran has rejected the idea of opening the Strait of Hormuz, after the U.S. announced the end of the previously reached Memorandum of Understanding. 


Iran’s Foreign Ministry says no ceasefire currently exists between Iran and the United States, directly contradicting recent claims of de-escalation. This statements cast further doubt on reports of an imminent diplomatic breakthrough between the United States and Iran.

There seems to be no returning to the Memorandum of Understanding between Iran and the United States

A totally new deal must be negotiated, which could include elements of oil sanction relief for Tehran


As there is no any official ceasefire between the American and Persians forces, IRGC Ground Forces Commander General Karami said with intelligence superiority, operational readiness, and the use of faith, technology and modern sciences, Iranians are prepared to deliver a decisive response to any threat posed by foreign adversaries and terrorist groups. 

Mojtaba Khamenei is giving a full backing to the IRGC countermeasures against the American hostility as Tehran has concluded that the United States can no longer be trusted, and IRGC approach has effectively become the regime’s official policy.

  
According to an internal source, Iran believes President Trump will avoid any game-changing move before November. As a result, Tehran intends to maintain maximum pressure and extract as much money as possible.

 Islamic Regime contacts with the Americans are limited to messages exchanged between Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and U.S. envoys, as well as mediation through Qatar and Pakistan. 

There are no formal negotiations.

Tehran has no deal or ceasefire with Trump as Pentagon Withdraws Forces from American Bases in Bahrain, Kuwait due to intensified Iranian Strikes


The Islamic Republic of Iran has directly rejected President Trump's new claim that Tehran agreed to end its nuclear program and open the Strait of Hormuz as a "complete lie," saying it is a "desperate attempt to manipulate the market," per Iranian military officials to Mehr News.


Iran adds that it has not requested any halt to the planned attacks, and that it was purely Donald Trump who chose to stop them with false claims of a deal.

US president Donald Trump announced cancellation of the further military actions against Iranian Oil, electricity, nuclear sites and nation-wide strikes. 


US president claims that a deal with Iran has been agreed that's US-Iran has considered a new Ceasefire proposal in MoU.


Meanwhile, US CENTCOM warned Trump that US army unable to defend Israel and Middle East from Iranian large-wave of missiles and drones.


Every US threat will strengthen our military — Iranian MoD


Iran will use every threat from the United States to bolster its military preparedness, deterrence, and overall capabilities, Defense Minister Majid Ebn-e-Reza said on Sunday.


"Although the enemy's recent statements are part of psychological and cognitive warfare, we consider every threat real and take it seriously," he wrote on X


His comments followed US President Donald Trump's renewed threats of further strikes on Iran amid Washington's push to reopen the Strait of Hormuz

Informed Iranian Military Source states that the Strait of Hormuz remains Closed as long as the US continues its hostile Actions

Iran is still Reviewing the Proposal made by the US. There is no Final Deal yet for the Strait of Hormuz

 A sign that the Strait of Hormuz will Open will be when the US lifts its Naval Blockade of Iran.

Coffins became part of US forces’ equipment — top Iranian commander


 “The Americans and their mercenaries have today realized deep in their souls that their coffins are part of their equipment in the region,” Major General Ali Abdollahi stated, emphasizing that attacks on Iran won’t go unanswered.


Iranian officials have repeatedly warned that the presence of US forces in the region would prompt retaliatory actions by the IRGC and the Axis of Resistance against host states.


During the US-Israeli war on Iran, the IRGC successfully targeted US military bases across the region, including the US Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain and Kuwait’s Ahmad Al-Jaber Air Base, severely limiting Washington’s regional capabilities.

US, Israel planing Human Sacrifices with over 5900km land blockade Against Iran

US, Israel planing Human Sacrifices with over 5900km land blockade Against Iran


The US and Israel are discussing a full +5900km land blockade of Iran, with the plan requiring cooperation from Iran's 7 neighboring countries Iraq, Turkey, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan to close border crossings, per Telegraph.

This confirms what a US official said yesterday, that Trump is "exasperated" and there was "not a real strategy for how long or what they should do," as many of these countries would not agree to this, given the fact that they are not in favour of working with Israel and the US.


Retired 3-star Lt General Sean MacFarland of the US Army calls a land blockade "almost impossible," adding the US is viewing Pakistan and Iraq as "weak links" despite Iraq's Iran-aligned resistance groups, with all 7 border countries facing their own economic consequences and threat of Iranian retaliatory strikes if they cooperate.


Trump believes he has "reached the end of the road" with his current Hormuz strategy and bombing campaign, with Trump and Netanyahu having discussed 3 options this Tuesday: reaching a deal, continuing the naval blockade, or resuming strikes.


Tehran has never for once come out to face both Washington and Tel Aviv in any conventional warfare but asymptomatic with precision ballistic missiles barrages, land blockade against Iran will only end up as one of the greatest human sacrifice of all time in the face of hypersonic missiles.

Saudi Arabia hosts Chiefs of Staff from 43 countries, EU to discuss Riyadh’s initiative to establish a Multinational Maritime Defense Alliance

Saudi Arabia hosts Chiefs of Staff from 43 countries, EU to discuss Riyadh’s initiative to establish a Multinational Maritime Defense Alliance

Do not involve your countries in a war that is not yours — Yemeni Armed Forces issues warning to the Saudi Coalition members 



The kingdom of Saudi Arabia on Friday hosted a meeting of Chiefs of Staff and representatives from 43 countries and the European Union to discuss Riyadh’s initiative to establish a Multinational Maritime Defense Alliance.


The Saudi initiative aims to protect international maritime routes and counter threats targeting global commercial shipping and navigation.


The meeting discussed the alliance’s founding arrangements, including Saudi Arabia serving as the founding and leading nation.


Fourteen participating countries, including Egypt and Turkey, expressed support for the Multinational Maritime Defense Alliance initiative


Yemeni Armed Forces issues warning to the Saudi Coalition members 


To the countries that have declared their alliance with the Saudi enemy and whose names were mentioned within the coalition and aggression against Yemen:


We clarify that the decision to impose a transit ban only included Saudi ships, in response to the brutal aggression that targeted our country.


Accordingly, we warn these countries against engaging in or participating in protecting Saudi ships or supporting their operations, and against dragging their countries into a confrontation that has nothing to do with them.


Any direct participation in protecting or supporting Saudi ships, as stated in the statement, will render the ships of those countries subject to the expansion of the ban decision to include them.


This is a final warning and a clear message: Do not involve your countries in a war that is not yours.


The Red Sea is not an open arena for those who wish to escalate, and any new step will be met with corresponding steps.

Board of Peace: Hamas has Agreed to relinquishing all its weapons for Israel to withdraw from Gaza

Board of Peace: Hamas has Agreed to relinquishing all its weapons for Israel to withdraw from Gaza


The report of the board of Peace for Gaza confirmed that Hamas has Agreed to relinquish all of its weapons and for Israeli forces to withdraw from Gaza.

The Reports: 

The Board of Peace and the mediating countries of Egypt, Qatar, Türkiye, and the United States today are pleased to announce that Hamas has agreed to a detailed Roadmap for implementing the next phases of the Gaza ceasefire.


The agreement concludes months of intensive, good faith negotiations to advance President Donald J. Trump's vision for establishing new governance, security, humanitarian relief, reconstruction, and economic recovery in Gaza as set out in the Comprehensive Peace Plan and U.N. Security Council Resolution 2803.


The Roadmap represents a historic breakthrough. For the first time, Hamas officially has committed to an actionable plan for relinquishing all its weapons, which will be followed by Israeli withdrawal from Gaza.

It holds the promise of delivering significant benefits to the people of Gaza, who have waited for too long for a better future, and security to the people of Israel.


Our focus now turns to implementation. The Board of Peace has worked closely with the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG). It will soon begin a phased transition toward full authority, backed by the International Stabilization Force (ISF), and will accelerate implementation of the rule of law, security, and humanitarian improvement in Gaza

 



A Roadmap for Completing the Implementation of President Trump’s Comprehensive Peace Plan in Gaza




Principles:




1. All parties reaffirm their commitment to President Trump’s Comprehensive Plan to achieve peace in Gaza, which constitutes, together with the UN Security Council Resolution no. 2803 (2025), the agreed upon international framework guiding the implementation of this process. Through this process, the parties aim at ending the cycle of destruction, securing the complete Israeli withdrawal from Gaza Strip, restoring normal life, enabling Palestinian governance, reconstruction, security, recovery and economic development, rehabilitating damaged sectors and facilitate launching a credible political path that achieves self-determination and Statehood.




2. Israel shall fully complete, without delay, all remaining commitments under Sharm Sheikh Protocol, particularly the cessation of military operations as detailed in annex (1). Hamas and the Palestinian factions shall complete the cessation of all military operations in accordance with Sharm Sheikh Protocol and the Peace Plan. In parallel, the timetable and implementation mechanisms of this Roadmap (“Implementation of Phase 2”) shall be prepared within 14 days after all parties approve the Roadmap, which could be extended by a decision by the International Verification Committee (IVC). Upon the completion of the timetable and implementation mechanisms, the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) shall enter the Strip and start to assume its responsibilities. The IVC, that shall be established by the Board of Peace (BoP), comprising representatives from the guarantors, BoP and the International Stabilization Force (ISF), shall certify that both parties fulfill their commitments under the Roadmap before proceeding to the implementation of Phase 2.




3. Progression from one phase to the following one shall be contingent on the verified completion of the commitments of the previous phase. This verification shall be done by the IVC, which shall also observe any violations by either party through an enhanced monitoring mechanism.




4. Hamas and other factions agree that all civilian governance and security functions in Gaza shall be handed over to NCAG in accordance with President Trump’s Comprehensive Peace Plan in Gaza. They also assert that NCAG shall enjoy full independence in carrying out its responsibilities and that the factions shall not interfere in NCAG affairs during the transitional period, in accordance with UNSC Resolution 2803 (2025).




5. Upon fully assuming its responsibilities in Gaza, NCAG shall maintain the continuity of civilian institutions and public services.




All civil servants shall be treated lawfully, fairly and with dignity with respect to their rights. Those whose services are terminated or who are retired during the transitional period shall receive their rights in accordance with the Palestinian law.




With international support, NCAG shall carry out a comprehensive audit of the financial and administrative affairs in Gaza, and protect, recover and administer public assets and resources.




NCAG shall seek to assess the legitimate commitments to suppliers, contractors and other parties – up to a total amount of no more than $400M USD - and address them.




The implementation of these measures will be undertaken gradually, within three years, in accordance with priorities determined by the NCAG.




Any unresolved financial rights, liabilities or claims shall be addressed within the context of a wider national process later, and in accordance with the relevant Palestinian law

Iran's IRGC claims they destroyed three F-35 jets, Donald Trump becomes agitated, lost his temper

Iran's IRGC claims they destroyed three F-35 jets, Donald Trump becomes agitated, lost his temper


In response to the attack on two residential homes on Qeshm Island, IRGC Aerospace Force fighters attacked the deployment ramp and maintenance hangar of the American enemy's F-35 fighter jets at Al-Azraq airbase in Jordan with several ballistic missiles.

Three F-35 aircraft were completely destroyed, significant damage was inflicted on three others, and several enemy officers along with technical and maintenance personnel were also killed. US Military denied it.

It also claimed to have struck the US Ali al-Salem airbase in Kuwait, destroying 2 drone hangars and a fuel tank serving military aircraft and helicopters.

IRGC confirmed that three members of Islamic forces were killed during US operation.

Tehran has consistently maintained that Iran neither request nor required ceasefire with the United States.

US President Donald Trump reportedly lost his temper during a security meeting, shouting and cursing out of frustration over the military options presented to him and the lack of progress toward a deal with Iran – NBC.

Iran may not send negotiators to Pakistan or Qatar, sources closed the Iranian Supreme leader said.

Citing a US official and people familiar with the matter, NBC News reported on Wednesday that Trump “exploded” during a recent meeting with his top national security officials “yelling expletives” to express his frustration over the lack of progress in the war.

The official said that despite public displays of satisfaction with how the military assault is going, neither the US president nor his aides are pleased with the status quo in the war.

Trump’s aides cannot agree on a path forward, the official added. “After all this time, there is no unity.”

Meanwhile, two other people familiar with the White House discussions said that Trump has become increasingly frustrated with Tehran-Washington negotiations.

“The president is exasperated,” a Trump ally who has spoken with Trump in recent weeks said.

“I don’t think he believed it was going to be this difficult to get the Iranians to agree to a deal. There was not a real strategy for how long or what they should do to get to the endpoint,” the Trump ally noted. “He did not intend this to be a long, drawn-out war.”

However, Iran intensifies diplomacy with other countries within and outside the Gulf region to deny United States of military use of their bases for aggression against Tehran.


Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and Cypriot counterpart Constantinos Kombos held a phone call on Thursday to discuss bilateral relations and regional developments.

Araghchi stressed the need to prevent any misuse of foreign bases in Cyprus for acts of aggression against Iran, citing the UN General Assembly's Definition of Aggression (Resolution 3314), which classifies providing territory for aggression against a third state as an act of aggression itself .

The Cypriot FM reaffirmed his country's commitment to the UN Charter and international law, stating that Cyprus has secured assurances from the UK that its bases on the island will not be used against any country, including Iran .

Iran promised retaliatory attacks against any military base used to attack Tehran in any country. Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, UAE, Qatar, Jordan are all witnessing Iranian ballistic missiles in the US military bases in their countries .


According to the Iran's foreign ministry,  Araghchi had also protested to his Bulgarian counterpart, Velislava Petrova-Chamova, over what Tehran described as Bulgaria's decision to allow the United States to station military aircraft at Bezmer Air Base in support of operations against Iran.

 Araghchi told Bulgarian FM that the reported decision was "condemnable, unacceptable and contrary to the traditional friendly relations between the two countries," and urged Sofia to reconsider it.

In response to the attack on two residential homes on Qeshm Island, IRGC Aerospace Force fighters attacked the deployment ramp and maintenance hangar of the American enemy's F-35 fighter jets at Al-Azraq airbase in Jordan with several ballistic missiles.

Three F-35 aircraft were completely destroyed, significant damage was inflicted on three others, and several enemy officers along with technical and maintenance personnel were also killed. US Military denied it.

It also claimed to have struck the US Ali al-Salem airbase in Kuwait, destroying 2 drone hangars and a fuel tank serving military aircraft and helicopters.

IRGC confirmed that three members of Islamic forces were killed during US operation.

Tehran has consistently maintained that Iran neither request nor required ceasefire with the United States.

US President Donald Trump reportedly lost his temper during a security meeting, shouting and cursing out of frustration over the military options presented to him and the lack of progress toward a deal with Iran – NBC.

Iran may not send negotiators to Pakistan or Qatar, sources closed the Iranian Supreme leader said.

Citing a US official and people familiar with the matter, NBC News reported on Wednesday that Trump “exploded” during a recent meeting with his top national security officials “yelling expletives” to express his frustration over the lack of progress in the war.

The official said that despite public displays of satisfaction with how the military assault is going, neither the US president nor his aides are pleased with the status quo in the war.

Trump’s aides cannot agree on a path forward, the official added. “After all this time, there is no unity.”

Meanwhile, two other people familiar with the White House discussions said that Trump has become increasingly frustrated with Tehran-Washington negotiations.

“The president is exasperated,” a Trump ally who has spoken with Trump in recent weeks said.

“I don’t think he believed it was going to be this difficult to get the Iranians to agree to a deal. There was not a real strategy for how long or what they should do to get to the endpoint,” the Trump ally noted. “He did not intend this to be a long, drawn-out war.”

However, Iran intensifies diplomacy with other countries within and outside the Gulf region to deny United States of military use of their bases for aggression against Tehran.


Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and Cypriot counterpart Constantinos Kombos held a phone call on Thursday to discuss bilateral relations and regional developments.

Araghchi stressed the need to prevent any misuse of foreign bases in Cyprus for acts of aggression against Iran, citing the UN General Assembly's Definition of Aggression (Resolution 3314), which classifies providing territory for aggression against a third state as an act of aggression itself .

The Cypriot FM reaffirmed his country's commitment to the UN Charter and international law, stating that Cyprus has secured assurances from the UK that its bases on the island will not be used against any country, including Iran .

ESCALATIONS IN MIDDLE EAST: Tehran has no plans to send a delegation to Pakistan or Qatar for negotiations with US

ESCALATIONS IN MIDDLE EAST: Tehran has no plans to send a delegation to Pakistan or Qatar for negotiations with US

US military launched an attack on an empty
 sports hall in the city of Farashband,
Fars Province, southern Iran.


Iran has no plans to send a delegation to Pakistan or Qatar for negotiations, Nour News, which is close to Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, reported on Thursday, citing an official.


The official denied that US-Iran talks would resume in Geneva, Doha or Islamabad.


“Recent US Treasury action complicated the relatively successful talks between Iran and Oman,” the official was quoted as saying.


Meanwhile, Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry said in Thursday US-Iran talks are ongoing to help restore stability, particularly in the Strait of Hormuz.

Islamabad urged both sides to resolve tensions through dialogue and diplomacy, reaffirming its support for a peaceful solution.

The comments come as regional tensions remain high after the US launched fresh strikes on Iranian-linked targets following attacks on American forces.


US military in the middle east launches new wave of strikes on Iran, the centcom hits residential building on Qeshm Island on Wednesday.

"U.S. forces began launching strikes against Iran at 8 p.m. ET today. The strikes are a powerful response to yesterday's attempted Iranian attacks on U.S. forces based in the Middle East." CENTCOM said in a statement.

CENTCOM confirms new strikes, calling it a "powerful response" to Iran's attempted attacks on US forces.


What was hit: Qeshm Island — residential area struck, search and rescue teams working to free 2 people trapped under rubble

Bushehr was also targeted. According to the report, US strikes caused a short power outage in Qeshm by damaging the grid.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards threatened countries assisting the United States with a “harsh response” unless they changed their conduct, according to a statement issued on Thursday.


The IRGC said the Strait of Hormuz would remain closed as long as the US continued making threats and intervening in maritime movements in the region.


It said two oil tankers attempted to leave through what it called an unsafe route south of the strait on Wednesday night under the direction of US aircraft. Both vessels turned back after a major fire broke out aboard one of them, the IRGC said, without providing evidence.


IRGC-affiliated Fars News reported on Thursday that a Qatari LNG carrier passed through the Strait of Hormuz with Iran’s permission, the first such shipment in three weeks.


The vessel transmitted tracking data and used a route designated by Iran, passing without incident and continuing toward international waters, the report said.

As CENTCOM is firing HIMARS missiles from Kuwait to targets in Iran. In response, more Iranians are demanding the full destruction of the Kuwaiti regime for its ongoing aggression and slaughter of Iranians just as it helped Saddam do in the 1980s. According to a report from an Iranian official.

According to AFP report citing Kuwait’s military source, an Iranian strike hit a Chinese firm’s building in northern Kuwait Thursday morning, killing a worker.

A report also has it that following the failure of US air defenses to intercept Iranian missiles, air navigation data shows that German and French military aircraft have headed to US bases in Jordan to assist American forces in intercepting Iranian attacks. This is a clear message of NATO allies readiness to directly involve to help the US in the war against Iran as Britain has already offered it's airbase assets for operations against Tehran.

The US Army has awarded Lockheed Martin a contract worth up to $58.6bn to produce PAC-3 Patriot Missile Segment Enhancement interceptors, marking one of the largest munitions contracts in recent years, reports Reuters. The US has been in shortage of interceptors and weapons. Hence clamouring for ceasefire.

Citing three sources familiar with recent Pentagon data and a new report by outside analysts, CNN reports that the US military's weapons stockpiles, including its inventory of crucial air defense missiles, remain severely depleted following a major flare up of the war with Iran in recent weeks.

America says it is closely watching for any attempts by Russia or China to send weapons to Iran.

This comes amid ongoing U.S.-Iran tensions and recent public warnings from President Trump against such transfers.


Israel has said the US is preparing for something "bigger than anything we have seen before" in the war on Iran, a senior Israeli security official tells Channel 15.


The official adds the US is preparing for a large-scale unprecedented operation against Iran, not just a single isolated response, with Israeli defense circles saying the US is approaching a major counter-response.


However, on the Strait of Hormuz debacles, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu outlined a long-term vision in which the Strait of Hormuz would lose much of its strategic importance by redirecting regional energy exports through alternative pipeline networks.


According to this concept, energy could be transported from the Gulf to the Red Sea, then across Israel to Mediterranean ports, creating a new export corridor that reduces reliance on Hormuz as a global chokepoint.


Supporters of this view argue that such infrastructure would transform Israel from being primarily a strategic ally into an indispensable energy transit hub. They contend that once major oil and gas flows depend on this route, protecting Israel would become increasingly tied to broader economic and energy security interests.


The argument also draws parallels with recent U.S. defense initiatives, suggesting that deeper integration through defense manufacturing, intelligence cooperation, and critical infrastructure creates relationships that are progressively more difficult to reverse. In this interpretation, the combination of military, intelligence, and energy ties strengthens the long-term strategic partnership by making disengagement increasingly costly

Video: Heated argument erupted inside Kuwait’s Parliament over Kuwaiti land, airspace, and waters used in US military operations against Iran


There was heated dispute erupted inside Kuwait’s Parliament over allegations that Kuwaiti land, airspace, and waters were used in U.S. operations against Iran.


 

Aside Kuwait, Jordan citizens are also coming to terms with others in the Gulf region that Hosting US bases endangers the country's security!  That the region will be better off by having the region take responsibility for its own security

"Hundreds of Jordanian political, legal and other figures signed an open petition last week calling for the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Jordan in a rare public challenge to the government."

“We maintain that their presence exposes Jordan to security, political, and economic risks and instabilities that serve no national interest and increases the likelihood of our country being dragged into a regional conflict to which it is not a party,” the petition said.

Houthis considering imposing transit fees on commercial ships passing through Bab el-Mandeb Strait

Houthis considering imposing transit fees on commercial ships passing through Bab el-Mandeb Strait

Yemen's Houthis are seriously considering imposing transit fees on commercial ships passing through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, with Chinese vessels expected to be exempt, according to Reuters.


The proposal reportedly follows discussions with Iranian officials and comes days after the Houthis announced a naval blockade targeting Saudi Arabia.


Intelligence suggests the Houthis are formalizing control over Bab el-Mandeb — creating a permanent toll system modeled on Iran's Hormuz framework, with fees potentially paid in stablecoins or Chinese Yuan.

Trump: No deal, no mercy as Iran's Ballistic Missiles Hit American Military Base in Jordan

Trump: No deal, no mercy as Iran's Ballistic Missiles Hit American Military Base in Jordan


United States President Donald Trump has again declared that if there is no deal with Iran, there will be no mercy with Tehran.

Iran has ended it's retaliatory break and resumes ballistic missiles strikes against US military base in Jordan.

Trump warns Iran that if negotiations fail, America's next targets will be bridges and power plants. The pressure campaign is no longer about words—it's about overwhelming leverage.

The world is now watching Tehran's next move

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) launched multiple ballistic missiles toward US forces in the Middle East on Tuesday in what US Central Command described as an attempted surprise attack, adding that all missiles were intercepted.


“At 5:45 p.m. ET today, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces launched multiple ballistic missiles from Iran in an attempted surprise attack on U.S. forces based in the Middle East. All Iranian missiles were successfully intercepted. U.S. forces remain vigilant and at a high state of readiness,” CENTCOM posted on X.


Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it targeted a US air base and Central Command center in Jordan with ballistic missiles on Tuesday, according to IRGC-affiliated Fars News.


IRGC's Aerospace Force launched several ballistic missiles at the facilities in response to what it described as US actions against Iran, the report said.


"As long as threats against the Islamic Republic of Iran continue and the illegal and hostile actions of US forces against our interests persist, resistance will continue. The threats by US officials and illegal interventions against our interests must stop,” IRGC said.

CENTCOM claims all missiles were intercepted — but social media video shows smoke rising from alleged impact sites.


Though no US strikes in recent days, Iran has not agreed to any ceasefire since the US withdrew from talks. Iran says it retains the right to target US assets in the region.


It is believed that Iran resumed attacks against the US as the CENTCOM and Saudi Arabia are in the joint coalition strikes against the Tehran backed militias in Iraq.

CENTCOM and the Saudi Armed Forces conducted precision strikes in eastern Iraq, targeting what they described as "Iran-aligned terrorists" directed by the IRGC.

US and Saudi fighter aircrafts targeted logistics and weapons sites, CENTCOM announced. According to the CENTCOM, there have been over 30 drone attacks against the US forces in the last 72 hours.

Attacks on Iranian Vessel in Caspian Sea: Ukrainian FM puts Blames on Russia as Tehran Demands Restitutions

Attacks on Iranian Vessel in Caspian Sea: Ukrainian FM puts Blames on Russia as Tehran Demands Restitutions


The Acting Foreign Minister of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha on Tuesday called Iran's Foreign Minister Seyed Abass Araghchi stating that Ukraine is not seeking escalation with Iran on the incident of Caspian Sea.

Andrii emphasis that Ukraine's goal is to counter Russian aggression, which is the root cause of the incident at the Caspian Sea, and it is Russia who bears full responsibility for all provocations and casualties.

According to the Iranian Foreign Minister, Ukrainian maintained that the attack on an Iranian ship was unintentional and Ukraine seeks no escalation. 

Araghchi said Iran does not seek escalation either, but made clear to Him that any attack on Iran's citizens or interests was unacceptable. There must be restitution for losses.


 "Was assured by Ukrainian FM @andrii_sybiha that the attack on an Iranian ship was unintentional and Ukraine seeks no escalation. "

"Iran does not seek escalation either, but made clear any attack on our citizens or interests is unacceptable. There must be restitution for losses."


Ukraine's FM in his words:

I called Iran’s Foreign Minister @araghchi for a frank conversation. Diplomacy is about direct conversation, even when it’s difficult. I stressed that our goal is to avoid unnecessary escalation.

I reiterated that all of Ukraine’s actions are aimed solely at defending our country from Russian aggression and never intended to target civilian vessels or people.

This is also true with regard to Iran’s statements about their national who died and a civilian vessel that was targeted in a recent incident. Our goal is to counter Russian aggression, which is the root cause of all incidents, and it is Russia who bears full responsibility for all provocations and casualties.

I emphasised the necessity to refrain from any escalatory steps, as well as to end any support for Russia’s war against Ukraine. This war is illegal and it must end.

Our position remains unchanged: Europe and the Middle East deserve stability, security, and peace.


 Merging Ukraine and Iran conflicts serves US and NATO strategic goals


Ukraine’s Caspian Sea strike reveals a trend toward the convergence of the Ukrainian and Iranian conflicts into a wider escalation says Alexander Stepanov, a military expert at the Institute of Law and National Security (RANEPA).


 These provocations are intended to elicit a retaliatory response from Iran and shape Western public opinion around the idea of a supposed “anti-Western alliance” being built by Russia and Iran

 The strategic aim is to widen the escalation zone, push it into a new phase, and facilitate the involvement of NATO countries under the guise of legal justification


 This includes efforts to damage key Eurasian transport and logistics routes, including the North-South Transport Corridor

 The Iran campaign has become strategically unacceptable for the US, that's why shifting focus, expanding escalation, and involving Europe serve its longer-term goals.


According to Sputnik quoting a former Pentagon senior security policy analyst Michael Maloof, Ukrainian Leaders' attempt to merge the Ukrainian and Iranian conflicts through a Caspian Sea strike came with impeccable timing – just ahead of Zelensky US visit, 


“Zelensky grabbed that as an opportunity for his very limited PR purpose of showing Washington and Europe that he’s a team player"


There are also “definite Israeli fingerprints all over this operation”: Zelensky “was put up to it” by the CIA and Mossad


But “if anything, these two conflicts are showing the limitations of US power projection" – the US is overextended, lacking the money and resources not only for military hardware but also for keeping energy markets in balance

Tehran rejects Donald Trump's claims of ongoing negotiations, saying it is not negotiating with the United States

 Trump threatening resumption of military operations against Iran 


Iran has directly rejected Donald Trump's claims of ongoing negotiations, saying it is not negotiating with the United States and has not requested talks — adding "it's not in our DNA," according to Tasnim.


The Foreign Ministry said "it's not in our DNA" to seek negotiations and insisted Washington is the side requesting talks.


Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi also declared, "The Strait of Hormuz will never return to its pre-war state."

President Donald Trump on Tuesday reportedly told Fox News that he may resume bombing Iran any moment.


“I can resume military operations against Iran and finish the job, and there are people who want me to do that.”


“There are those who want me to destroy Iran’s power plants and bridges.”


“The Iranians know that I will destroy their bridges and power plants if they do not reach an agreement with us.”


According to some reports on possibilities of resumption to hostilities between United States and Iran, Pakistani intelligence agencies assess that US President Donald Trump could launch a limited ground offensive to seize parts of Iran’s southern coast, DPA reported Monday citing security sources in Islamabad.


The assessment is based on military observations, according to the report.


The sources said Pakistan and Qatar were again relaying proposals between Washington and Tehran, but that Iran was seeking a permanent ceasefire and opposed a limited truce.


Iran’s military has warned the United States against a ground offensive and said it is prepared for such an operation, according to the report.


The ground invasion agenda will not be unconnected to the concerns raised by the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the Pickaxe mountain believed to be the secured underground housing the Iranian nuclear facilities.


Any ground invasion in whatever manner may likely result in heavy casualties on both sides.


Another dangerous calculation is according to a Report indicating that some US officers are Considering Special Forces Raid with Army Rangers and Navy SEALs to Secure Iran’s Uranium.


U.S. military planners are weighing a complex special operations mission that could involve Army Rangers including the 2nd Ranger Battalion and Navy SEALs such as SEAL Team 6’s Silver Squadron, along with the Army’s 21st Ordnance Company, to seize Iran’s enriched uranium from fortified sites like Fordow and Isfahan.


Thousands of troops would secure the areas, clear booby traps and damaged entrances, and protect routes, while a smaller elite team retrieves the material.


Experts describe it as potentially one of the most sophisticated and dangerous operations in military history

Yemen's Houthis Struck Saudi Arabia's Southern Yanbu, uses to Bypass Strait of Hormuz by the Kingdom

Yemen's Houthis Struck Saudi Arabia's Southern Yanbu, uses to Bypass Strait of Hormuz by the Kingdom


Yemen's Houthis have Struck Saudi Arabia's Southern Yanbu Terminal, which the Kingdom uses to Bypass the Strait of Hormuz.

Fuel Depots can be seen Burning from King Fahd Road 


Saudi Arabia still has the Northern Yanbu Terminal for its Oil Exports


In another report, Saudi Arabia’s air defenses intercepted and destroyed drones coming from Iraq, the Kingdom’s defense ministry says in a statement


The drones attempted to target oil facilities in Saudi Arabia’s eastern region and Riyadh, according to the ministry


The ministry says the drones were launched from Iraqi territory by Iran-backed militias

Houthis have claimed responsibility for the drones  attacks.

On Monday, Yemen's Houthis announce multiple drone strikes on several targets and sensitive points in the supply and transport of crude oil from eastern Saudi Arabia to the Yanbu port, in response to Saudi drones breaching Yemeni airspace, per Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree.

This comes after today’s drone attacks on the Abqaiq oil refinery.


Both Jordan and Qatar have separately condemned the drone attacks against the Saudi Kingdom.

Qatar on Monday strongly condemned attempted drone attacks targeting oil facilities in Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Province and Riyadh regions, saying the drones were launched from Iraqi territory.

The attacks were a “flagrant violation of Saudi sovereignty and a threat to its security and stability and the safety of its lands,” Qatar’s Foreign Ministry said.

The ministry also described them as a breach of international law, the UN Charter and the principles of good neighborliness.

It said Qatar stood in full solidarity with Saudi Arabia and supported all legitimate measures taken by the kingdom to protect its sovereignty, security and territory.

According to a report, over the past 48 hours, the Yemeni armed forces have struck three Saudi oil tankers." 


Sixteen Saudi vessels had turned back, unable to transit the Houthi-controlled Bab al-Mandab Strait in the past six days, beginning July 20, it added


"Since Yemen imposed the blockade, not a single Saudi oil tanker has passed through the Strait in either direction," the source stated



The ban on Saudi shipping, imposed on July 20, remains in effect, according to the source



The Houthis announced the blockade in response to Saudi control over Yemen's airspace for 12 years, and after Sanaa airport was shelled as an Iranian plane carrying a Houthi delegation was landing



Yemen's Houthis have Struck Saudi Arabia's Southern Yanbu Terminal, which the Kingdom uses to Bypass the Strait of Hormuz.

Ukraine's attack on Iranian vessel will not go unanswered — Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi tells Russian FM Lavrov

Ukraine's attack on Iranian vessel will not go unanswered — Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi tells Russian FM Lavrov

Iranian FM 

Following the Ukraine's attack on Iranian commercial vessel in the Caspian Sea, Tehran has saut it will not go unattended to.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in a telephone conversation with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov described the strike as a “blatant UN Charter violation," asserting it was carried out at Israel’s urging in an effort to pull Europe deeper into the middle east conflict.


Earlier, Ukrainian forces targeted an Iranian commercial ship in the Caspian Sea, resulting in one fatality and multiple injuries.


Araghchi on his X post lashes out at Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy calling him the “freeloader in Kyiv” as he accuses Ukraine of carrying out a deadly attack on an Iranian commercial vessel and warns that it “cannot go unanswered.”

Iranian FM said he had made it  clear during phone calls with European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov that “what the freeloader in Kyiv did cannot go unanswered.”


An Iranian military sources are suggesting IRGC may soon directly strike Ukraine interests or supply Russia with short-range ballistic missiles, in response to Kyiv's drone attack on an Iranian vessel in the Caspian Sea that killed a sailor, per Iranian outlets.

Having formally notified Russia and the EU. The IRGC is reportedly considering a retaliatory ballistic missile strike against a strategic target in Kyiv, with the Khorramshahr-4 missile capable of reaching Ukraine.


The source suggests Iran could also escalate by sending short-range ballistic missiles to Russia. The conflict is expanding — and Tehran is weighing its options.

 Iran Rejects Another Ceasefire Request from US





A Ukrainian strike on an Iranian commercial vessel caused an explosion on board, killing one sailor and wounding another person, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said.

Iran warned it “will not hesitate to defend its national interests and security,” adding that responsibility lies with the Ukrainian regime and its supporters.

According to Reuters, Iran's Foreign Ministry condemned on Saturday a Ukrainian attack on an Iranian commercial vessel in the Caspian Sea, saying it resulted in an explosion that killed ‌one sailor and injured another.

Throughout the war in Ukraine, Kyiv has had to counter Iranian-designed drones deployed by Moscow. Kyiv has offered its drone interception expertise to countries in the Middle East that have suffered strikes from Iran.

Tehran described the attack on its vessel as an act of aggression and ⁠said it would defend its national interests and security, while accusing Kyiv of seeking to expand the war in Ukraine.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry summoned Ukraine's chargé d'affaires in Tehran to convey its protest over what it described as a "hostile and criminal" attack, Iran's state news agency IRNA reported.

The Iranian denunciation coincided with comments by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy that Kyiv had noted Russia was passing on its satellite observations in the Middle East to Iran to enable it to direct ‌strikes ⁠in the region.

Zelenskiy had earlier said that Ukraine's forces struck a Russian warship and vessels used for transporting Iranian-linked military cargo in the Caspian Sea.

The Ukrainian president, in subsequent remarks posted on X, said Kyiv had recorded since the beginning of July "active Russian satellite ⁠surveillance of the Gulf states and U.S. military facilities located there. These images subsequently appear in Iran."
"At the ​same time, there is a clear correlation between Russia’s ​satellite imagery ⁠of these sites and Iranian strikes — both before the attacks, in preparation for them, and afterward, to assess the damage inflicted," Zelenskiy said.
He said that on ⁠July ​19 and 20 alone, Russian satellite observation had ​included four air bases: two in Bahrain, one in Jordan and one in Kuwait.



After repeated rejection from Iran, US President Donald Trump has reportedly asked for another ceasefire including Yemen and postponed a planned “massive attack,” according to Israeli Channel 11.


In the Oval Office Trump said: “I haven’t [decided]. Look, we’re talking to them right now. I think they’re getting more and more serious as the days go by.”


Tehran has already rejected three previous U.S.-backed ceasefire proposals this week, delivered through Qatar, Iraq, and Pakistan. The latest offer is likely headed the same way.

An unconfirmed report has it that America has carried out a drone attack on the Parchin military base in Tehran. 
The situation seems very serious and there is a fear of many people getting killed.

Trump said Saturday he was “absolutely” considering resuming a full-scale war with Iran “if we don’t get 100% of what we want,” during a phone interview with French broadcaster LCI.

Asked whether he had a message for Washington’s European allies, Trump said, “They’re lucky they have me as their friend.”

Yemen's Houthis have launched a Ballistic Missile Strike on Saudi Arabia's Jazan region

Yemen's Houthis have launched a Ballistic Missile Strike on Saudi Arabia's Jazan region

 


Smoke is rising over Jazan, Saudi Arabia right now. There is a Big Oil Refinery in the Area

The ballistic missiles were reportedly launched from Yemen, though the Houthis have yet to formally claim the attack.

Iranian state media claims the target was a Saudi Aramco oil facility. Saudi authorities have not confirmed. If verified, this would be another direct hit on critical energy infrastructure in one of the most strategically vital regions on Earth says Val, Daniel

According to reports, Houthis have recently warned Saudi actions “will not go unanswered” 

The Yemen’s Ansar Allah movement warned that recent Saudi actions will not go unanswered, Tasnim reported, citing the group’s political bureau.




Below is a footage reportedly showing an oil terminal in ARAMCO oil refinery in Jazan, Saudi Arabia burning after Yemeni missile strikes.




Ansar Allah said the deterrence equation set by Yemen’s people, leadership and armed forces remains “clear and fixed.”


“Siege for siege, ports for ports, escalation for escalation,” the movement said, warning that continued aggression would only bring further losses for the aggressors.


According to Reuters citing Greek security sources, Saudi air defenses, reportedly operated by Greek personnel, intercepted two ballistic missiles launched from Yemen toward oil facilities in Yanbu.


The incident has drawn renewed attention to the role of foreign military personnel supporting Gulf air-defense operations, as Riyadh continues relying on international partnerships to protect key energy infrastructure from regional missile threats.


Earlier the Saudi led Coalition Joint Forces Command said the coalition carried out a “proportionate military response operation” in Yemen’s Hodeidah, adding that it will continue to take the necessary measures to protect ships.


United States is correctly pressuring Iran to stop the Houthisfrom further attacks against Saudi Arabia. US has not carried out strikes against Iran in the last 24 hours for the first time 


The US next attacks may be be the start of large scale strikes against Tehran or continue diplomacy through Pakistan to minimize exclamation in the region as Saudi is no longer exception.

US-Iran War: Trump lobbies Russian Putin, Chinese Xi Not to Sell Weapons To Tehran , Denied Selling Weapons To Ukraine

US-Iran War: Trump lobbies Russian Putin, Chinese Xi Not to Sell Weapons To Tehran , Denied Selling Weapons To Ukraine


The President of the United States Donald Trump on Friday said both the Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Chinese President Xi Jun ping have assumed him they will not sell weapons to the Iran.






Trump denied selling weapons to Ukraine, claiming the United States simply sells them to NATO countries.




He stated that he "has no idea how the weapons are distributed" after purchase.




In the same publication, the American president noted that neither Russia nor China supplies weapons to Iran.

President Trump said he takes at face value testimony from the leaders of China and Russia that they are not providing weapons to Iran or otherwise “participating” in its war with the United States and Israel.




The president’s defense, issued in a statement on his social media site Truth Social, comes after Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth told lawmakers that Russia and China are “enabling Iran.”




According to Trump, “President Xi, at our recent meeting in Beijing, China, told me that he would not, under any circumstances, give or sell Weapons to the Islamic Republic of Iran — And that statement included Chinese Companies,” Trump wrote, referring to Chinese President Xi Jinping.




He Said, “Considering our relationship, I take him at his word and, besides, l am doing him very big favors, also. Likewise, President Putin … told me that he would not sell Weapons to Iran.”




“Therefore, two major Countries that people speak of often in terms of Iran are, in my opinion, not participating. If they did, it would be very bad for them — Certainly not in their best interests.” He said.




Iranian military and Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) have demonstrated resilient, bravery, courage and capabilities with a home grown technology in ballistic missiles productions that have become the nemesis and nightmare to the American forces and NATO allies alike.




As Britain has already gave in to Trump to use UK's military base against Iran, Bulgaria has also joined, allowing the United States to use it's air base against Tehran.




President Trump thanked Bulgaria’s Rumen Radev after the country’s parliament approved allowing the US military to use Bezmer Air Base in support of American operations amid the war with Iran.




“Thank you Prime Minister Radev!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post, sharing a Newsmax report on the parliamentary vote despite Tehran’s warnings to Bulgaria.




Israel's IDF is expected to join in the coalition campaigns against Iran.


Sources confirmed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a nearly 5-hour security cabinet meeting Saturday amid ongoing tensions with Iran.

Decision reached on the conditions to join the campaign; Israel is expected to join the campaign if Iran attacks Israel, if Washington requests it, and if the operation expands beyond tactical strikes around the Strait of Hormuz to include Iran's regime and nuclear program.




According to sources familiar with the discussions with Washington, Israel and the U.S. are fully aligned on the next phase.




Again, Netanyahu is expected to travel to Washington on Monday to meet President Trump on Tuesday, where the two are expected to coordinate their next steps.


Up to a hundred Refueling aircraft and lighter jets have been moved to Israel ahead of the planned major military onslaught against Iran.




Nothing justified the coalition war against Iran.

There was also a report that the UAE supplied targeting intelligence and flew defensive air cover for the strikes Kuwait and Bahrain carried out against Iran.




Bridges around Bandar Abbas area and power facilities in Kish Island were destroyed.




IRGC is warning civilians in Kuwait, the UAE and other countries in the Persian Gulf.




Their words: Stay at least 500 meters away from any building, hotel, base or location where U.S. soldiers are hiding.




The latest announcement from the head of Iran’s joint command also stated that for every single Iranian killed, they will kill one member of U.S. forces.




That means hotels. Residential buildings. Beaches. Malls. Multiple civilian locations are in serious danger.




America, the UK, Australia, Germany and France are telling their citizens to get out of the Middle East. Airports in the UAE and Kuwait could suffer shutdowns for months.




The Persian Military has warmed the UK with Khorramshahr-4 Intercontinental ballistic missiles, declaring RAF Fairford and Diego Garcia "legitimate targets" for hosting U.S. B-1 bombers, Tasnim News.




"The U.S. shifted to British bases after depleting cruise missile stocks. We warn the British monarchy not to burden its case further."




The Khorramshahr-4, used in the March 19 strike on Diego Garcia (3,800km away), could reach parts of the UK. Britain would have just 20 minutes warning — Mach 10.




The Donald Trump's war against Tehran is causing the whole world a lot of pains. For the Russia and China to allow Trump's planned demolition of Iran is to allow another Libya error or a repeat of Iraq blunders by the American led NATO imperialism.

IRGC: We are prepared for the real showdown with US and allies As Ballistic Missiles Destroyed American Military Bases Across Middle East

IRGC: We are prepared for the real showdown with US and allies As Ballistic Missiles Destroyed American Military Bases Across Middle East

 

All European diplomates have vacated Tehran as IRGC also said they are prepared for the mother of all showdown as massive US and Israeli forces operation against the Persians are underway.


Iran's Revolutionary Guards said they struck the US al-Azraq air base in Jordan, damaging several warplanes and hitting accommodation for US troops, in what they described as the 27th wave of Operation Nasr 2.


Jordan’s army confirmed the attacks and said it downed seven Iranian missiles and six drones.

In a statement on Friday, the IRGC also said they destroyed a Patriot air defense system and a surveillance balloon in Erbil, Iraq, and struck an accommodation used by US personnel.


The Guards added the United States would face further responses if it continued it's attacks against the Islamic Republic.


The attacks came after the US military said it had carried out a 13th consecutive night of strikes on Iran to halt attacks on ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz and nearby waters.


IRGC in what they called Statement No. 49 said the American military personnel are relocating to civilian buildings therefore warned the general public for their safety to maintain a 500-meter distance. 

"Their presence is the danger." "We warn the general public in countries where American soldiers are stationed to immediately stay out of a radius of 500 metres from the places where American soldiers are hiding, in order to be safe," the Guards said in a statement carried by state television.


US Air Force KC-135R aerial refueling tankers have arrived from the US to Israeli bases in the past few hours, bringing the total to nearly 100 aerial refueling tankers in Israel, with the massive USAF airlift from Europe to the Middle East still ongoing.


The US also deployed 2 EA-37B "Compass Call" electronic warfare aircraft today, specialized in Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) missions to jam radars and communications, likely for a Pickaxe Mountain strike in combination with the recently deployed B-1 Lancer.


The massive new US operation against Iran is likely to begin tonight as soon as markets close, including the direct/indirect involvement of Israel.


Iran's IRGC warned the UK of any involvement in the military campaign against Iran by the US and Israel.

The NATO submit held in Turkey was a rallying moment for the us to bring other European leaders to join the war against iran.


A former British Prime Minister Mr Keir Starmer, who refused to participate in the US-Israeli war against Iran, was accused of inefficiency and resigned under pressure. While another person from the same party assumed office as Prime Minister and he hurriedly placed the UK's military bases at the disposal of the US military recalling UK diplomats from Iran.


The middle east situations will see many American allies suffer more in the hands of the Iran's ballistic missiles.


An Omani delegation has arrived in Iran to discuss a framework “to establish appropriate mechanisms for managing ship traffic in the Strait of Hormuz,” according to Iran's state media. Al Jazeera reported.
