These are to act jointly with the United States to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, permanently deny any future Iranian regime the ability to again close the strait including through alternative methods, dismantle Iran’s weapons industry with an emphasis on ballistic missile production, complete the destruction of Iran’s nuclear program, and create the conditions for regime change.
🇺🇸 President Trump on allied involvement
President Trump stated: "The US has been informed by most NATO 'allies' that they don't want to get involved in our military operation against Iran, despite agreeing that Iran must not have a nuclear weapon. I'm not surprised, because NATO has always been a one-way street — we protect them, but they do nothing for us. Because of this success, we do not need NATO's assistance — we never did. Likewise, Japan, Australia, or South Korea. As President of the US, the most powerful country in the world: we do not need anyone's help".
🇺🇸 US troops wounded across the region: The Washington Post, citing CENTCOM spokesman Capt. Tim Hawkins, reported that US troops have been wounded in seven Middle Eastern countries, including Israel, during the war with Iran. The other countries named are Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait, and Bahrain.
❗️ Violence against IDF soldiers near Kiryat Arba: Earlier today, Israeli civilians hurled stones at IDF soldiers operating near Kiryat Arba, injuring one soldier who was treated at the scene. The incident followed an earlier enforcement operation by IDF and Civil Administration forces at HaOqfim Junction, where several unlawfully built Israeli structures were evacuated under a Central Command security order due to ongoing criminal activity and severe violence originating from the area.
After the evacuation was completed, forces came under attack, though no injuries were reported in that earlier incident. The IDF stated it views any violence against its soldiers and commanders with utmost severity and strongly condemns such acts.
