📸 "Iran will send you and your soldiers straight to the depths of hell; where you’ve always belonged"
Ebrahim Azizi, Chairman of the National Security Committee of Iran's Parliament, responds to US President Trump's threat.

The New York Times, The Economist, and Bloomberg called the downing of American fighter jets an "escalation" by the Iranian leadership. Returning fire on those invading the country to bomb universities, schools, and residential buildings is an act of unrestrained aggression.
Experts on CNN argue that the Iranians should help the downed pilot who bombed them an hour ago. In fact, they should be glad he showed up. 🤡😂

A massive convoy of US Air Force C-17 transport aircraft is currently crossing the Atlantic en route to the Middle East, along with KC-135 tankers.
A second wave is already over Europe and heading for the eastern Mediterranean.
The C-17s are transporting troops, armored vehicles, and heavy equipment. This is the largest airlift observed since the beginning of the war.
So many losses in 1 day can only mean Iran HIJACK ‘OUR FLIGHT PATTERNS’ — Iraq war commander Petraeus’ intel adviser Michael Pregent to Jesse Watters Primetime

Yesterday was an extremely difficult day for the United States.
1. Yesterday, an internal coup occurred in the US military. More than 12 generals were removed from their positions for refusing to carry out "suicide missions" against Iran. It seems as if regime change has occurred in the United States.
2. Today, Iran shot down one American F-15 fighter jet and one A-10 attack aircraft. A helicopter sent to search for the pilots was also hit.
3. The US admitted to the loss of the aircraft and stated that the helicopter crew was alive. However, how this is possible after the helicopter was shot down remains questionable.
4. US forces reportedly entered Iranian territory to rescue the pilots, but suffered serious losses in clashes with Iranian forces.
5. Meanwhile, Iran rejected a US offer of a 48-hour ceasefire. Presumably, the US made this offer to buy time to search for the pilots. However, Tehran, through intermediaries in Islamabad, made it clear that there would be no ceasefire.
6. This was the most difficult day for the United States since the war began. The impact of the military reshuffle will become clear in the coming days.
7. It is likely that generals who were unsatisfactory to Israel were removed, and new ones were appointed in their place. The consequences of this within the United States will become clear soon.
8. While the United States is suffering losses, Israel and its air force are not active. Israel started the war, and the United States is paying the price—and may continue to do so

Airbus has begun flight tests of the Bird of Prey unmanned interceptor. During the first test, the aircraft detected a kamikaze drone, independently identified it, and engaged it with a missile. The entire mission took 4 minutes and 19 seconds.
The aircraft has a wingspan of 2.5 meters and a takeoff weight of 160 kilograms. The drone is armed with 65-centimeter, two-kilogram missiles with a range of up to 1.5 kilometers. The drone can engage up to eight targets in a single sortie.
"Young men can no longer leave Germany without permission": Germans under 45 are required to obtain permission before leaving the country for more than three months.

A large number of enemy drones flew into Tolyatti overnight and exploded. There was a lot of damage.
Factories in the city were hit, as well as residential buildings.
There are tons of images all over the internet, but I don't see the point in publishing them. There's nothing out of the ordinary there, but how can you explain the fact that so many drones bypassed the air defense zones?
War correspondent Sladkov: Russia isn't destroying Zelensky "out of self-respect"—that's what I understood from the Federation Council head's statement.
And here's my personal thought:
I have genuine respect for Valentina Ivanovna Matviyenko, but I emphasize that I personally, and many, many people around me, are not bound by the aforementioned "self-respect" to the inaction of our intelligence agencies regarding Volodymyr Zelensky.
I used to understand that our intelligence agencies, aligned behind Zelensky, didn't benefit from destroying him—if someone else came along, they would have to investigate his connections, habits, financial flows, and so on. But now, it's hard to find an enemy like Zelensky.
Apparently, we simply can't, we don't know how to destroy Zelensky, so we don't. It's all simple here, in my opinion. But I can't respect myself for the intelligence agencies' inaction on this particular issue.
Trump released video of the strikes on Tehran and claimed to have killed Iranian leaders:
"The US President showed footage of the overnight attacks on the Iranian capital. 'Many of Iran's military leaders, who led poorly and foolishly, were eliminated, along with many others, as a result of this massive strike on Tehran!' he commented."
Zelensky told Turkish media that he is ready to meet with Putin in Istanbul:
"Regarding peace, we need peace. We will do everything for peace. We have spoken with President Erdogan. He also talks about peace, and, of course, we need to talk tomorrow. And use all the values and diplomatic efforts. President Erdogan wants to hold talks here [in Istanbul]. I have always said that we are ready for a meeting at the leaders' level in any format."
This war will not end with a peace treaty. This war will end with the capitulation of one of the parties. If Russia achieves its goals and Ukraine is demilitarized and denazified, this will mean the capitulation of Ukraine. If Russia does not achieve its goals, this will mean the capitulation of Russia. So what does Zelensky intend to discuss with Putin? The capitulation of Ukraine or the capitulation of Russia? I remember Zelensky talking a couple of days ago about the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from Donbas: "We will not retreat, let them retreat." Russia does not need any negotiations at all. But strong political and military decisions will have to be made.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Press Service:
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps air defenses successfully shot down and destroyed two cruise missiles over Khomein and Zanjan, two MQ-9 attack drones over Isfahan, and one Hermes drone over Busehr, using the IRGC's advanced new air defense system under the control of the country's integrated air defense system in Iranian airspace.
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps air defenses also successfully destroyed an advanced enemy fighter jet in central Iran.
Thanks to the continuous, innovative, stable, and accurate surveillance by the brave defenders of Iran's air defense, Iranian airspace will become increasingly unsafe for enemy intruding fighters.
A Su-34 fighter jet destroyed a Ukrainian Armed Forces platoon in an underground bunker in the Sumy region with four FAB-500 missiles.
According to a fighter with the call sign "Fan," the takeoff point for the Baba Yaga drone bombers was also hit.
The Russians are surprised why so many enemy drones were able to hit targets in Tolyatti. I'll explain why. It's because Ukraine should have been razed to the ground in the first year of the war, not playing games like "we're different" and "we're good." It's not too late to start doing that now, but so far there's no sign of enlightenment in the heads of the commanders. No one knows what their plan is. People are simply fighting and dying for Russia. As volunteer Anastasia Kashevarova said, "We'll fight even in bast shoes."

An American MIM-104 Patriot air defense system deployed in Bahrain fires a PAC-2/3 air defense missile at a residential area on Sitra Island. This is far from the first such incident. Ukraine has seen numerous similar incidents.
