The western media are wondering where the actual nuclear material might be since it wasn't in the obviously going-to-be-bombed place. The Iranians used the high tech of dirt in front of the entryway to help protect the facility entrance. There's mention of a super secret facility - a known unknown, if you will - where the real WMDs are hiding.

All this when trump severly sabotaged negotiations with Iran on nuclear weapons in his first term. This will be forgotten with the manufactured consent when the same media outlets praised Obama for making significant headway in those negotiations. This is a clown world

Israel will no longer be able to provide its civilians with a 15-to-30-minute warning ahead of incoming Iranian missiles, a practice it largely maintained since Iran’s counterattack began, Lt. Col. Tali Varsano Eisman, an officer in the Israeli Home Front Command. She told N12, an Israeli TV channel, that the military now faces “difficulties in identifying” missiles fired on Israel and recommended that people spend the night in shelters or close to a safe space. She did not elaborate on why.

The Israeli military said in a statement that there are no changes in the Home Front Command’s guidelines, adding that “if there are any updates, they will be communicated through the official channels.”

I think the last couple of years have really shown what a pathetic POS Zelensky and co are. Like, they are literally sacrificing the future of their entire country and its people for a proxy war that even their master, America, has grown bored of.

If it wasn't glaringly obvious back in 2022, it's basically a confirmed fact now that the entire conflict is one giant American scheme to weaken Russia and shackle the EU to the USA. Seeing daddy America divert everything to the genocidal entity and forgetting Ukraine should be a gigantic slap in the face to anyone still actually stupid enough to think that this conflict is about muh freeDUMBs and stopping evil Putler.

There is a 0% chance that Ukraine will join NATO or that America will militarily intervene on the side of Ukraine (LOL), and even joining the EU is a distant fantasy. Zelensky's 1940s Nazi collaborationist fantasy of Ukraine being the "Israel of Europe" and the imperial core's new attack dog will never ever happen because Ukraine will never be as valuable as Israel is. America is literally on the verge of starting a new disastrous and unpopular war (Even MAGAts are split over this one) over Israel's unquenchable bloodlust. It's both truly sad and pathetic to see idiots laud Zelensky as a great leader while he is sending generations of men into the meat grinder as a kind of advertisement of Ukraine's servility and bootlicking skills to the West. All while Blackrock literally steals everything that's remotely valuable in the entire country.

Iranian air defenses report that they shot down a fifth Zionist F-35:

An Israeli F-35 fighter jet has been downed near the city of Varamin, about 35 kilometers in southeast of Tehran, the Varamin governor announced on Wednesday morning.

Aviv (“Av‑Kam”) Research Centre – Israel’s Hidden Technological Hub: 700 personnel

The Aviv or Av‑Kam Research Centre, situated in the Negev Desert near the Dimona nuclear complex, represents one of Israel’s most secretive military-industrial facilities. Although its exact functions are shrouded in official silence, open-source experts and satellite analysts attribute sophisticated roles to the centre:

Close to the Shimon Peres Negev Nuclear Research Center, the site lies within Israel’s broader high-security enclave, protected by multiple concentric perimeters. Analysts believe Aviv supports research and development in radar, sensor arrays, electronic countermeasures, and command-and-control systems—essential components of Israel’s multi-layered missile defence networks, including Iron Dome, David’s Sling, and Arrow .

Missile and nuclear links: Its proximity to nuclear facilities and defence nodes has led to speculation about roles in nuclear command, early-warning systems, and even clandestine nuclear-related R&D—consistent with Israel's policy of "strategic ambiguity" .

The centre likely forms part of a broader tech ecosystem spanning the Negev: it may work in concert with the Israeli Defense Forces' cyber warfare units (e.g. recently relocated to Be'er al-Sabe') and high-tech parks like Gav-Yam and Ben-Gurion University’s tech campus.

Like the Dimona reactor, Aviv is neither officially acknowledged nor described in budgetary releases.

Also Pepe Escobar:

It took ONE Iranian missile - not intercepted - to strike the Negev Advanced Technologies Park in Be’er Sheev and incinerate infamous military intel Unit 8200. Israel used the campus to operate C4i and the Cyber Defense Directorate.

EDIT: with the pictures - it seems more like "Aimed at" then "hit" - its damage is rather mild - and when only one missile was used , that should be its result.

Uri Misgav-Haaretz: No one guarantees that we will reach "post-war" with Iran. Even in Gaza, we have been drowning for 622 days without an exit plan. Soldiers are being killed, prisoners are abandoned, and shells and bullets kill civilians and hungry children daily who rush with whatever strength they have left toward flour trucks.

Netanyahu's appetite here knows no bounds. Look how quickly we moved from "preventing an Iranian nuclear threat" to bombing a television station and university, and delusions about "redrawing the region" and regime change. What about our own regime? Who will address the destruction, and who will lead life under an endless war of attrition? Netanyahu and Yinon Magal? Miri Regev and Ben Gvir? The Chief Rabbis?

When the opposition and media surrender to Netanyahu and his wars, falling in love with planes and missiles as the only solution to everything, this puts me, as a Zionist and liberal, under existential threat. No less real than Iran's threat.

lmao liberal zionists are hilarious

Just over 2½ hours ago, the B-2s started crossing the Pacific ocean.

Source

The fact that they required refueling immediately after takeoff, and took quite long to reach California and the Pacific, suggest that these are fully loaded with ordinance (2x GBU-57 MOP is 60 000lbs), despite using a transit callsign, MYTEE. So they're loaded and ready to go. Could likely stop and be forward deployed at Guam or Diego Garcia. Going to be a very long flight.

According to open source signals intelligence (SIGINT), it's 6x B-2s, two flights of 3 each, MYTEE 11-13, and MYTEE 21-23. Transit flight from Whiteman to Guam for MYTEE 21-23. Destination confirmed for them. Destination unknown for MYTEE 11-13.

MYTEE 21-23 flight path so far

Update: Two mid air refueling aircraft, KC-135 Stratotankers, are airborne to refuel the B-2s. Refueling set to start in half an hour's time according to the NOTAM yesterday just outside the B-2 shaped airspace. They're right on time, very telegraphed movement.

The Telegraph: Chinese Boeing 747 cargo aircraft disappear from radar as they approach Iran.

China has probably supplied something to Iran and may continue to do so.

Boeing 747 cargo aircraft flying from China do not exactly disappear intentionally from radars, as suggested by The Telegraph.

Based on our findings, they land at the airport in the city of Ashgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan. Although the city itself is close to the border with Iran, that doesn’t necessarily mean anything. From there, they continue on to the European Union.

The media are obviously just creating a story out of regular stopovers.

Trump rebuffs Putin’s offer to help mediate Israel-Iran conflict

The US president urged his Russian counterpart to resolve Russia’s war in Ukraine before stepping in elsewhere.

“He actually offered to help mediate, I said, ‘do me a favour, mediate your own. Let’s mediate Russia first, OK?'” Trump told reporters at the White House.

Sad breakup between the two. It also signals that war is now imminent.

All the fed accounts are claiming dozens of warplanes are on the way to the middle east following Trump's announcement that people should evacuate Tehran.

The images they're posting of this are flight radar of tankers arriving in Europe. They are not evidence of a mobilisation to attack the middle east.

Seems like propaganda to me.

Trump says he wants regime change. But how? He can't send in troops, bombs alone probably aren't enough, and a color revolution seems unlikely.

It's clear they really want this. Destroying Iran is critical for the US. They've been mobilizing for months. They've been whittling away Iran's regional allies for years.

What is the plan here?

Now all pieces are falling into their respective places. Iraq was completely annihilated by the US, the once-powerful Iraqi Army reduced to nothing on purpose. Air force? It doesn't exist. Air defenses? They have none. The army? A collection of somewhat regular units backed by militias with different allegiances.

Syria completely reduced to nothing. Assad gone and whatever was left of the Armed Forces is now reduced to dust. The air force? It's completely gone. Air defenses? Conveniently destroyed by "israel". The army? What army? The entire Syrian and Iraqi air spaces are nothing but "israeli" playgrounds, and with scumbags like the "King of Jordan" being nothing but a traitor, it only got worse. Lebanon is out of the way too, Hezbollah's capabilities remain a mystery for the time being.

That leaves only Iran and Ansar Allah as the only ones capable of dealing with "israel", as well as the continued resistance by our brothers and sisters in the Gaza Strip. So, the decades-long strategy of slowly debilitating those around Iran is working out in "israel's" favour, and with the US right behind them, they can only feel more and more empowered. But such confidence can lead them to dark places. Nazi Germany felt VERY confident they could take on the USSR, and they had the experience to do so... but it didn't work out at all.

This is a moment of great weakness for Iran, they have limited means and they will go up against TWO genocidal nuclear-armed powers while standing more or less alone. I sincerely wish the best of luck to them, I hope they can make their shots count... because they really need to make them count.

5.1 magnitude earthquake near Semnan, Iran. 250km away from Fordow, and too big to be from bunker busters, I think? ~~Spot on for a nuclear test, though...~~

~~Even if Iran doesn't have nukes and this was a gift given by Allah himself, they should just lie and say they did a successful nuclear test.~~

Edit: The recorded depth of the epicenter was allegedly 13km. If that's true, it's too deep to be a nuclear test (I think).

Reports of another Arrow-3 deciding to turn around and head home. Seeing some speculation as to whether Iran might have compromised Israel's defense systems or if they just do that sometimes.

We truly live in a hell world. Good luck to all Iranians and may Allah keep you all safe.

Reports of explosions and impacts in Tel Aviv. Getting no video so far this time, censorship will probably reduce what we get.

With the use of a ballistic missile with early release submissions (ERS) confirmed, with the warhead apparently releasing it's submunitions at between 7-8km altitude, and the submunitions dispersing over a wide area with a diameter of 8km, it changes things a bit. Conclusions:

• Iran has little interest in counterforce targeting, weapons like this are rare and costly and would usually be reserved for airfields and the like.

• It's a significant escalation to fire this at a population centre, a diameter of 8km for the submunition spread when is massive, there's no argument to say that you're targeting a military installation inside the population centre and the missile missed. This was probably done/chosen in response to Israel destroying the inactive Arak heavy water nuclear reactor.

• Israel will likely respond with some airstrikes on energy infrastructure again I assume. Maybe something else. There's a reason Yemen haven't fired one of these ERS equipped missiles at Israel yet. Combined with the direct hit on a hospital, they'll respond with something that they can show their population at home.

• It explains the firing of dozens of David's Sling Stunner interceptors, or Iron Dome Tamir interceptors, or a combination of both, in a single location, likely trying to hit all the submunitions. The submunitions are probably flying slow enough to be hit by the Tamir. Firing missiles equipped with submunitions could be seen as a way to try drain these interceptor stocks for these systems. No effect on Arrow 2, THAAD, Arrow 3 and SM-3 though vs any other missile.

A month ago, I posted about the China-Iran rail corridor being put into operation. As part of the Silk Road Railway, this corridor not only further integrates Iran into the Belt and Road Initiative, but also allows them to export oil to China, and for China to export goods to Europe while having the ability to bypass US Navy blockades. I'd imagine this would have set off alarm bells in the US, as they've been clear about wanting to control shipping routes in their efforts to contain China.

Some people on here were convinced that with this new rail corridor in operation, the next US action would take place in either Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, or Uzbekistan, which are all situated along this railway. What if they decided that with this new development, they couldn't wait any longer, and chose to accelerate their regime change plans for Iran instead?

In March, US intelligence agencies openly admitted that Iran was not building a nuclear weapon, and right up until the moment this rail corridor was put into operation in May, Trump seemed to concur. Now Trump is claiming the total opposite, that Iran has been building nuclear weapons, and that any prior intelligence should be ignored. Of course, this could be considered standard behavior for Trump, but maybe the ghouls in control had to quickly shift gears.

I have been told that the White House has signed off on an all-out bombing campaign in Iran, but the ultimate targets, the centrifuges buried at least eighty meters below the surface at Fordow, will, as of this writing, not be struck until the weekend. The delay has come at Trump’s insistence because the president wants the shock of the bombing to be diminished as much as possible by the opening of Wall Street trading on Monday. (Trump took issue on social media this morning with a Wall Street Journal report that said he had decided on the attack on Iran, writing that he had yet to decide on a path forward.)
