Iran doing climate activism by preventing hundreds of flights from Dubai

Very interesting footage which seems to show Iran taking down an imperialist drone. The interesting part being that from the speed it might have been taken down by another drone, potentially even autonomously.

Haven’t seen anything quite like it in Ukraine, they don’t even use drones this big there because they’re too easy to track and shoot down after all, and Iran might have just found an even cheaper means of dealing with them.

some no-name trolls were saying Iran doesn’t have the capability to hit precise targets like this lol. Well there you go, confirmed by the New York Times.

not sure what to make of it but there you go

number of ambulances/sirens indicates something big was likely hit

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇰🇼 NEW: A U.S. official confirms an American F-15 jet was downed in Kuwait in a ‘friendly fire incident’

The second day of the America-Iran war has ended. Some interesting points:

1. Iran has continued its counterattack and has even intensified it. After Khamenei’s death, their war leadership is now decentralized. This was planned before the war started. That is, if Khamenei or the central command structure is destroyed, they will continue the war in a decentralized manner. It is always seen that command structures are decentralized to prolong the war, making it very difficult to stop.

2. In this war, Iran has attacked the UAE the most. Iran has launched 137 missiles and 209 drones targeting the Emirates. The reason Iran targets the UAE the most is that the UAE is Israel’s closest Arab ally, the first to sign the Abraham Accords in 2020, and hosts the US F-35 fighter jets at Al Dhafra Air Base, which Iran believes have been used against it. Additionally, Iran symbolically attacks Dubai’s Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah, airport, etc., as symbols of Western wealth. This has caused flight suspensions in the UAE and damage to businesses including AI data centers.

3. Israel is the second most targeted by Iranian attacks, with Iran launching 150–200 missiles and just a dozen drones targeting cities like Tel Aviv and Haifa. Several Iranian missiles have hit their targets.

4. Bahrain ranks third, with Iran launching about 61 missiles and 34 drones targeting it. The US Fifth Fleet headquarters, the center of American military power in the Middle East, is located here. Iran claims to have destroyed this headquarters. Bahrain also signed the Abraham Accords and is a close ally of Israel.

5. After the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, Hezbollah retaliated with missile and drone attacks on Israel. However, the Houthis have not yet directly engaged in this war. It is worth noting that although there is a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hezbollah, Israel has never stopped attacking Lebanon.

6. To stop Iranian drones and missiles, Middle Eastern countries have to use 2-5 intercept missiles for every incoming missile. This reduces their capacity to stop incoming missiles and drones if Iran continues its attacks, causing significant defensive losses.

7. Although there are reports that America has requested a ceasefire from Iran through Italy, this has not been verified. In my opinion, Iran knows well that a ceasefire means America will resupply and attack Iran again. Iran’s current goal is the departure of America from the Middle East and for other countries to remove American bases from their lands.

8. Continuous attacks and counterattacks are ongoing. America has officially acknowledged the death of 3 American soldiers in a drone strike at a Kuwaiti base. Unofficial numbers are claimed to be much higher but are unconfirmed. So far, in Iran’s counter missile attacks, a bomb shelter in Beit Shemesh in central Israel was hit, killing 9 Israelis and injuring over 121.

9. Israel is mainly attacking with F-35 and F-15 jets, while America is attacking mainly from ships with Tomahawk and other missiles.

10. In the first two days, Iran targeted American surveillance equipment like radar systems in various Middle Eastern countries. These are early warning systems for America and Israel. If these warning systems go offline, Iran’s chances of hitting its targets will increase. Iran is moving in that direction.

Speculation

“—Iran has reportedly hunted down a large number of hiding American and Israeli military personnel as well as Gaza occupation forces staying in hotels, private houses, and bases. A significant number of them are said to have been killed, though official censuses have not confirmed the full details. A majority of investment companies, traders, and intelligence cells have also reportedly been targeted and neutralized.

In retaliation for Martyr Soleimani ®, Imam Khamenei ® vowed to remove the U.S. presence from the region, targeting infrastructure and assets in the second stage, and proceeding head‑to‑head in the third stage. These planned operations are framed as the direct revenge of Imam Khamenei ® and will reportedly be carried out with full force.”

=========

Basically, they are deleting America out of the region.

Disclaimer: I haven’t taken the time to analyze each claim but I wanted to share it to you all as speculation. Let me know your thoughts.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Senior U.S. Officials to the Washington Post:

'Inside the Pentagon, and among some members of the Trump administration, there was deepening concern on Sunday that the Iran conflict could spiral out of control.

‘The mood here is intense and paranoid’, one person said.

There is anxiety among senior leaders that the fighting will extend for weeks, further stressing limited U.S. air defense stockpiles.

‘There is concern about this lasting more than a few days’, said another person. ‘I don’t think people have fully absorbed it yet, like, what that has done to our stockpiles. If often takes two or three interceptors to ensure a missile is stopped.’

Geolocated and confirmed.

@Middle_East_Spectator

Crazy solo v squad by Iran!

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇰🇼 U.S. Embassy in Kuwait:

'There is a continuing threat of missile and UAV attacks over Kuwait. DO NOT COME TO THE EMBASSY.

Take cover in your residence on the lowest available floor and away from windows. Do not go outside.

The U.S. Embassy in Kuwait urges U.S. citizens in Kuwait to shelter in place, review security plans in the event of an attack, and to stay alert in case of additional future attacks.

U.S. Embassy personnel are sheltering in place.’

So after a few days of shooting missiles at eachother you wonder what’s next. The US and Israel will never launch a ground operation. Their goal will be regime change so I guess they might stir up some protests in the next few days or weeks like they always do.

Iran seems bound to firing missiles at Israel and US bases nearby, but you wonder how long it will last and how effective it will be. The Iron Dome still seems operational and for every missile that gets through, a dozen seem to be intercepted.

I hope that it is clear for Iran that the US and Israel will continue doing this until Iran falls, no matter how many more ‘peace’ deals they will be given. But will they be capable of neutralizing nearby US-Israeli assets?
