So according to Nima there were some himars strikes from bahraine and kuwait. Iran is placing mines in the Omani side of the strait. There are Iranian jets patrolling over Tehran.
I think the oil tankers that Iran has been hitting were headed fro usa and Iran stopping them is what has made trump angry. The american oil reserve is basically tapped and Iran is demanding that the MoU be followed so usa doesn’t get any oil till they stop the israelis, release the stolen funds, and lift some sanctions.
I genuinely hope this leads to Pezeshkian and Aragchi being thrown out on their asses, if not imprisoned, and being replaced by IRGC hardliners who know how to use their drones and missiles instead of tweets that go against Iran’s interests
Thank you for the actual details! Unlike certain megathreads!!

Opinion of one of the Simurg Admins
🇮🇷President Pezeshkian has promised the Leader of the Revolution to resign if a deal with the US isn’t clenched.
Iranians are sick and tired of political stunts by the Reformist governments that have returned little other than misery and poverty for them, while enriching the so-called “Reform Mafia” by 100s of billions of dollars.
Pezeshkian will not resign and is likely to concede any and all rights that Iran possesses since it’s become crystal clear that he’s essentially on a mission for the Iranian oligarchs such as Ansari, Mar’ashi and others.
During the 40-day War, the Trump regime specifically targeted industrial production in Iran, including the pharmaceutical industry.
Iranian oligarchs view domestic innovation and production as rivaling their massively lucrative import-export gig.
Even Western sanctions since the 2009 “election riots” have been designed in such a way as to enrich the pro-West businesses and deprive popular concerns.
The Islamic Republic needs to systematically clean house in order to preserve the achievements of nearly 50 years worth of national sacrifice.
@SimurghRes
Finally people are talking about this.
The reformists are speedrunning selling Iran out. Its ridiculous that they’re capitulating after all the cards they hold. I guess the bourgeoise are terrified of additional sanctions or their assets in Western countries being seized.
Either way, really need Imam Khamenei to step in and get rid of these snakes
It’s not about fear for them. They don’t really fear much about the US. The Iranian oligarchs want to be able to access western markets and enruch themselves further, as they could very easily compete with most global players today.
It’s not a fear of West, it’s envy of their opulence, and an all encompassing greed.
Would him agreeing to concede all these rights possessed by Iran even work out? Don’t they have to be approved by the supreme leader to actually work?
The reformists used this playbook before. Agree to concessions that they know the leader won’t accept, then when the negotiations fall through, the reformists use it to paint the principalists and IRGC as unwilling to make concessions. From there they use the various media outlets the oligarchs own to stir up their supporters into a frenzy.
This the time though, they don’t have a support base among the population, especially compared to the very agitated and mobilized public that currently exists in Iran.
Ain’t no way
Tbf this is what reformists across the world have always done. This is why during imperial wars of aggression, reformists need to be stripped of power. Let them have a voice, but their hands should be tied, because when they’re not, they always sell out their people.
I hope the reformists responsible for this are hanged in a public square in Tehran. No reformists in Iran should ever have the balls to betray the Iranian people ever again. Make them spit blood and show everyone else what it means to betray the Iranians
And there have been several important people like the relative (or son) or Ayatullah Khomeini saying that “anyone that negotiates with US empire is a traitor”. Let’s hope the Reformists actually try to do something like this and then get their asses handed to them by the public
🇮🇷Seyyed Ali Khomeini, speaking at the memorial service for the martyred Leader:
“The current negotiation is not a peace negotiation; the country is at war. Anyone who negotiates for peace with the United States is a traitor.”

@FotrosResistancee
🇺🇸The US Department of the Treasury has announced sanctions against three Iranian Forex companies and two additional financial networks.
The Treasury has also sanctioned a major Iranian real estate company, accusing it of having ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as well as to Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei. Under the recent MoU with Iran, no new sanctions were supposed to be imposed.
@SimurghRes
—❗️🇮🇷/☢️ NEW: CNN has released exclusive satellite imagery, showing that Iran has started rebuilding the Taleqan-2 nuclear site in Parchin
Taleqan-2 is a heavily fortified high-explosives testing chamber, suspected to have played an important role during Iran’s covert ‘AMAD’ nuclear weapons program in the early 2000s. It was rapidly expanded before the recent war.
The site was buried with sand by Iranian military engineers shortly before the attacks, attempting to protect the internal structure from severe damage. It seems all 3 holes in the roof have now been fixed.

As we previously announced, attacks on infrastructure will be met in kind, and the criminal Zionist regime, which is behind these acts of aggression, will not be spared the response of our fighters.

He also says Iran asked the U.S. to continue talks, to which Trump agreed.

If you have above 50 Insight, the scare quotes around “talks” & “negotiations” have been there the whole war.
🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷⚡️ — The Trump administration does not want Israel involved in US strikes on Iran, two Israeli sources tell CNN.
➡️ One source said Netanyahu “would really want to join the US strikes,” but the US has made clear Israel’s participation is unwanted at this stage.
➡️ The prevailing Israeli assessment is that Trump does not want a return to full-scale war — the most he may be willing to do is reinstate a naval blockade on Iranian ports.
— 🇺🇸/🇶🇦/🇮🇷 NEW: A Qatari delegation has landed in Tehran, with the aim of salvaging negotiations between the United States and Iran
@Middle_East_Spectator
Make them wait and then send them back with no negotiations
Send them back with a chunk of broken concrete with some blood on it. Let them stew on what it means.
The great martyred leader of the revolution, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been buried.
May God bless his soul eternally.
Very terrifying to see my basic predictions about the arc of US-Russian/Iranian affairs come true. Hitting electricity & bridges is exactly what everyone pointed out was holding back the US from entering a huge escalation spiral. An even bigger one going as far out as the Indian Ocean. I assume you saw that it came out Iran’s damage to Israel’s power grid was far more severe than revealed initially.
It seems like there may be more fear of the alternative, Iran not entering the escalation spiral, which I agree would be worse, but this is very very bad & I don’t see any way out, maybe people are right we will keep falling back to low-intensity as both sides benefit from stalling in some respects. I hope they destroy everyone in my industry bring it on. Revenge
Trump to remove Syria from terror list after meeting with former Al-Qaeda chief
The move will unlock US military aid to Damascus under the pretext that Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa’s extremist-dominated Syrian army is fighting terrorism
If Osama bin Laden survived a few years more he could have found himself allied with USrael.
I don’t know much about bin Laden, but I remember reading his letter to Americans and it seemed that he was not on the side of Israel when I read it.
He was for most of his career.
⭕️ Israeli Army Radio’s correspondent reported that Iran struck Jordan’s Muwaffaq Salti Air Base, where US forces are stationed.
Reports say at least five ballistic missiles hit the base. Other assets in Jordan were also targeted, as well as Ali al-Salem Airbase in Kuwait.
Circulating reports also claim Iranian cruise missiles were launched toward US warships in the Gulf of Oman.
This comes amid reports of renewed US aggression on Bandar Abbas, Bushehr, and Shiraz.
