🇺🇸 A US Air Force B-1B Lancer strategic bomber has taken off from RAF Fairford in the United Kingdom.
A lone bomber up while dozens of fighters supported by 7 refueling tankers are airborne across the region?
What’s it carrying?

The US Army broadcasts an encrypted emergency message (EAM) consisting of only 17 characters.
It is one of the shortest EAM messages on record, and all known cases of this length occurred this year after the outbreak of war in Iran.

#WesternSyria: New Sectarian Terrorist Attack in #Hama
Local sources in the western Hama countryside reported that two workers from the Alawite community, Ali Ahmad al-Darwish, 55, and Rabee Abbas, 37, were wounded after being shot at by gunmen riding a motorcycle, as they were returning from construction work on the road linking the western part of the town of #Tayzin to the Khalufiyah farm on the Hama–Masyaf road.
This is the second such attack targeting the village this month, with the #HTS-led General Security militias having failed to pursue the gunmen behind either the first attack or other attacks in the Hama countryside. This has led local residents to increasingly suspect coordination between the motorcycle-riding terrorist groups and the HTS-led GS militias. The same village had witnessed a similar attack on September 7 of this month, when an armed terrorist group opened fire on civilians in the main street on the Tal Sikkin–Kafr al-Toun road, killing young Ahmad Ali Omran, 29, at the time, and seriously wounding Nasser Saoud, 60.

❗️Israeli army seals final access route to West Bank village, isolating 47 Palestinian families
The Israeli military has closed the last remaining access route to Khirbet Ras al-Ahmar, a Palestinian village southeast of Tubas in the northern occupied West Bank, completely isolating 47 families for a fifth consecutive day.
The closure follows more than two months of restrictions on dirt roads leading to the village, resident Thaer Basharat told Anadolu Agency.
Basharat said the Israeli military dug a trench across the final route five days ago, leaving residents dependent on livestock and agricultural tractors without access to basic necessities and animal feed. He described the village as a “cage” surrounded by trenches, walls, and military zones.
According to Basharat, around 360,000 dunams of grazing land were historically used by farmers in the community, but 90 percent has either been seized or placed off-limits.
He said the restrictions are aimed at forcibly displacing the entire community, as Israeli military and settler attacks on Palestinians and their property have intensified across the occupied West Bank since October 2023.
❗️US intelligence warns Saudi F-35 deal could expose sensitive technology to China
US intelligence officials have warned that a proposed $24 billion sale of F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia could potentially expose sensitive aircraft technology to Chinese espionage, The New York Times reported, citing US officials familiar with internal assessments.
According to the report, intelligence analysts are concerned that China could gain access to F-35 technology through espionage in Saudi Arabia or via Riyadh’s expanding military and security ties with Beijing. A recent Defense Intelligence Agency assessment examined Chinese military access to Saudi bases and the kingdom’s use of Chinese telecommunications equipment, while also questioning whether US and Saudi authorities could adequately secure facilities housing sensitive F-35 systems.

Lmao
Imagine being so stupid to think that saudi was ever going to get the jets. No wonder americans are losing on all fronts if their intelligence officials cant spot an obvious grift like this. Like I get it “trump bad” but trump scamming saudis of 24 billion is good for all of the american ruling class not just trump.
Well the big, bad wolf is suddenly a whimpering puppy?
As if China would care that much about this crappy aircraft model.
🇮🇱🇺🇸❌️🇮🇷 During the December 2025 CIA/Mossad-orechestrsted terrorist attempted coup in Iran, the upstart residents of an uptown residential complex were chanting slogans against the establishment and the leadership.
Less than two months later, those very buildings were levelled by the US and Israeli bombs killing dozens of them.

🇮🇷❌️🇮🇱 Hossein Pedaran, who had been tried on charges of espionage and transmitting sensitive information regarding Isfahan’s military and missile sites to Mossad, was executed in the early hours of this morning.
His sentence had previously been upheld by Iran’s Supreme Court.

⭕️ According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, 4 Palestinians were killed and 17 wounded in Israeli attacks across Gaza over the past 48 hours.
Since the 11 October 2025 ‘ceasefire,’ the death toll has risen to 1,390, with 4,801 people wounded and 831 bodies recovered from beneath the rubble.
❗️Israeli occupation forces demolish homes in southern Lebanon and set fire to Mays al-Jabal Hospital
Israeli occupation forces carried out a new wave of demolitions in southern Lebanon, including in Mansouri and Khiam, Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) reported. Occupation forces also set fire to the government-run Mays al-Jabal Hospital on Friday.
Lebanon’s Health Ministry condemned the hospital’s destruction as a “full-fledged war crime.” The ministry said the recently renovated facility, equipped with advanced medical technology to serve residents of southern border areas, had suffered systematic destruction aimed at depriving civilians of basic healthcare.
I have no words. Incredibly cruel.
❗️Turkiye revokes Iran’s Bank Mellat license after 44 years
Turkiye’s Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency (BDDK) has revoked the operating license of Iran’s Bank Mellat, ending the Iranian lender’s 44-year presence in the country. The decision was issued on 18 September and published in the Official Gazette today.
The regulator cited provisions of Turkiye’s banking law allowing licenses to be revoked if a bank’s continued operations are deemed to threaten depositors’ rights or the stability of the financial system.
The notice did not provide further details though this comes amid increased US pressure on Ankara to tighten economic measures against Iran, following Washington’s recent sanctions on a Turkish investment bank and Turkiye’s decision to halt Mahan Air flights from Tehran beginning 21 September.
❗️Trump bans CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from White House over critical coverage
Expand
US President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he was banning CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House, accusing the outlets of publishing what he called “fake news” about his administration.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump alleged that Politico had received an “illegal and ridiculous $8 Million Dollar subscription” from the US government under former president Joe Biden, claiming the payment was intended to keep the outlet “alive.”
He also warned that other media organizations could face similar restrictions.
Trump defended the move when questioned about its compatibility with First Amendment protections for a free press, saying the outlets were publishing “fake news” and accusing them of deliberately producing negative coverage to undermine his administration.
CNN condemned the announcement, defending its White House reporters’ "fair and accurate reporting” and warning that implementing the ban would constitute an “illegal assault” on constitutionally protected press freedoms.
