⚠️ U.S. SIGNALS MILITARY OPTION AGAINST IRAN AS NEGOTIATIONS PROCEED, AMERICAN AIRLIFT SURGES, IRAN THREATENS TO STRIKE ISRAEL AND UNVEILS HYPERSONIC MISSILE


🔸 U.S. leadership signals diplomacy first but keeps military option open: Vice President Vance said President Trump "will try to get what he can through non-military means – but if he feels the military option is the only one, he will choose that option." 

President Trump is expected to make a statement today at 7:00 PM Washington time.

💰 U.S. officials claim internal Iranian financial pressure is increasing: U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Besant said, "We have seen that the Iranian leadership is taking money out of the country like crazy. The rats are abandoning the ship. This is a good sign that they know the end may be near".

🛫 American strategic airlift activity to the Middle East continues: Ten U.S. C-17A transport aircraft flew in recent hours between U.S. bases in Germany and U.S. bases in the Middle East, described as an unusual concentration over a short timeframe. Since January 18 through yesterday, 84 flights of C-17A transport aircraft and five flights of C-5M strategic transport aircraft have been recorded operating in the region.

⚠️ Iranian officials issue direct threats toward Israel and U.S. forces: IRGC General Hossein Daghighi said, “Our Main Goal Is to Drive America Out of the Region; If the U.S. Attacks Iran, We Will Strike Israel First and Target All American Bases – Washington Returned to Negotiations Out of Fear of the Iranian People’s Capabilities.”

🚀 Iran presents hypersonic missile capability as negotiations proceed: Yadallah Javani, political advisor to the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, said the unveiling of the Khorramshahr 4 hypersonic missile is a message to the United States that negotiations do not signal abandonment of military capabilities. According to Iran’s Fars news agency, the Khorramshahr 4 has entered operational use in Iran’s missile cities.

Missile specifications reported by Iranian sources: Fars reported the Khorramshahr 4 reaches a speed of Mach 16, carries a 1.5-ton warhead, has a reported accuracy of 30 meters, a low signature profile, and a maneuvering warhead described as difficult to detect by radar systems.

🔸 Diplomatic efforts continue ahead of expected talks: U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff arrived in Muscat, Oman, ahead of negotiations with Iran expected to take place there tomorrow.

🔸 Al Jazeera reports a proposed negotiation framework: Al Jazeera said it obtained a framework proposed by Turkey, Qatar, and Egypt that includes Iran committing to zero uranium enrichment for three years, then enrichment below 1.5%. It also includes transferring Iran’s most enriched uranium stockpile to a third country, a commitment not to transfer weapons and technology to regional proxies, a commitment not to be the first to launch ballistic missiles, and a U.S.–Iran non-aggression pact.

THE IRAN–U.S. CONFRONTATION WON’T START IN IRAN — AND ISRAEL MAY FACE STRONG INCENTIVES TO MOVE FIRST

  The coming confrontation between Iran and the United States is often framed as a binary moment: Washington acts or holds back; Tehran retaliates or absorbs the pressure. This framing is simple, accessible, and largely misleading. If escalation occurs, it is unlikely to unfold as a conventional state-to-state conflict, and it is unlikely to begin where many observers expect. Instead, escalation would most likely emerge as a system-level event—an activation of Iran’s regional proxy architecture—designed to distribute risk, externalize damage, and preserve regime survival. Within that system, Israel is not a peripheral actor but a forward pressure point where consequences are most likely to manifest first. As the region moved into late December and early January, intelligence indicators suggested that Israel was preparing for a significant military campaign in southern Lebanon, extending south of the Litani River and potentially beyond it. According to this assessment, the campaign ...

🚨 SHABBAT EMERGENCY ALERT GUIDANCE FOR LONG-RANGE MISSILE THREATS TO ISRAEL

🪖 IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin said there are no changes to the Home Front Command’s instructions for the Israeli public, despite ongoing tensions with Iran. “Ahead of the Sabbath, I want to say to all citizens of Israel: the IDF is optimally prepared, both defensively and offensively. It is important to emphasize that there is no change to the Home Front Command’s instructions. We will ensure to update you if there is any change,” he said. 🛡️ Home Front Command status: Home Front Command instructions remain unchanged at this time as noted. In long-range missile scenarios originating from Yemen or Iran, missiles travel roughly 1,600–2,000 kilometers, and early alerts may be issued several minutes before impact, ahead of the standard red alert siren. ⏱️ Warning time differences: Unlike short-range rocket fire from Gaza or Lebanon, where red alerts typically provide about 15 seconds to 1.5 minutes to reach shelter, long-range missile threats involve earlier notific...

‼️ U.S. naval and air posture near Iran: The USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group has moved into the eastern Arabian Sea and is preparing to enter the Gulf of Oman, placing U.S. naval airpower within direct strike range of Iran.
