⚠️ US PRESSURE ON IRAN INTENSIFIES AS TRUMP ORDERS NAVAL ACTION WHILE IDF ELIMINATES TERRORISTS IN GAZA AND LEBANON AND ESPIONAGE CASE EMERGES IN ISRAEL
⚠️ US STRATEGY AND ESCALATION SIGNALS: Marc Thiessen, columnist and former White House Director of Speechwriting, said: “If there are two factions in Iran, one that wants a deal and one that doesn’t, let’s kill the ones who don’t want a deal”. A Fox News segment described President Trump’s extension of the ceasefire deadline as a tactical move to increase pressure rather than signal compromise, with negotiations still stalled.
According to the analysis, US operations have degraded 70–80% of assigned Iranian targets under Admiral Cooper, with the remaining 20–30% largely tied to ballistic missile capabilities. Control of the Strait of Hormuz is described as central to US leverage, with an ongoing blockade reportedly costing Iran about $500 million per day. Kharg Island is identified as a key pressure point in that effort.
🇺🇸 TRUMP NAVAL DIRECTIVE: President Trump stated: "I have ordered the United States Navy to shoot and kill any boat, small boats though they may be (Their naval ships are ALL, 159 of them, at the bottom of the sea!), that is putting mines in the waters of the Strait of Hormuz. There is to be no hesitation. Additionally, our mine “sweepers” are clearing the Strait right now. I am hereby ordering that activity to continue, but at a tripled up level!"
❗️ ESPIONAGE CASE IN ISRAEL: Two Israeli Air Force aircraft technicians will be charged with espionage for Iran, according to the Israeli Broadcasting Authority. They passed sensitive information about F-15 aircraft and collected intelligence on former IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.
❗️ IRAN EXECUTION CASE: Iran executed Sultan-Ali Shirzadi Fakhr, who was accused of being a member of the Mujahedin-e Khalq and of cooperating with Mossad. He reportedly joined the group in 1987 and was wounded during clashes in Iraq in 2012.
🎯 LEBANON: HEZBOLLAH TERRORIST ELIMINATED: Yesterday, the IDF struck and eliminated a Hezbollah terrorist operating at a launch site in the Sejoud area in southern Lebanon. The strike was carried out to prevent a direct threat to communities in northern Israel.
⚠️ CEASEFIRE VIOLATION IN SOUTHERN LEBANON: Earlier today, Hezbollah launched an anti-tank missile toward IDF soldiers south of the Forward Defense Line in southern Lebanon. The missile landed adjacent to the troops, no injuries were reported, and the incident constitutes a blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement.
❗️ LEBANESE GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said: "We urge the Trump administration to pressure Israel to reduce its demands and end its invasion of the country. Lebanon cannot sign any agreement that does not include a full withdrawal of Israeli forces. We cannot coexist with the so-called buffer zone, where displaced people are not allowed to return to their cities and villages".
🎯 GAZA: HAMAS TERRORISTS ELIMINATED: Last night, IDF troops identified several armed Hamas terrorists operating near forces in northern Gaza, in the area of the Yellow Line, and struck and eliminated them from the air. In a separate incident earlier today in southern Gaza, terrorists transporting munitions in a way that threatened the troops were struck, and one terrorist was eliminated. Before the strikes, the IDF said measures were taken to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precision munitions and aerial surveillance.
❗️ JUDEA AND SAMARIA: STONE-THROWING ATTACK: A terrorist hurled stones at vehicles on a central road in the area of Madama, lightly injuring an Israeli civilian who was treated at the scene. IDF soldiers are searching for the attacker, and a temporary security cordon has been placed around the area.
