💥 U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced that American forces carried out “measured and deliberate” self-defense strikes this weekend against Iranian radar installations and drone command-and-control sites in Goruk and on Qeshm Island in southern Iran.
According to CENTCOM, the operation followed aggressive Iranian actions, including the shootdown of a U.S. MQ-1 drone operating over international waters. American fighter aircraft reportedly destroyed Iranian air defense systems, a drone ground-control station, and two one-way attack drones assessed as threats to ships operating in regional waters.
CENTCOM stated that no American personnel were harmed and said U.S. forces will continue protecting American assets and interests during the ongoing ceasefire period.
⚠️ The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that it targeted a U.S. base in Kuwait which it claimed was used to launch the American strike against southern Iran.
Kuwait’s military confirmed that the country came under missile and drone attack early this morning and said Kuwaiti air defense systems were actively intercepting hostile targets. The Kuwaiti General Staff said explosion sounds heard across the country were the result of ongoing interception operations and urged the public to follow official security instructions.
The IRGC warned that if further strikes are carried out against Iran, “the response will be completely different.”
💥 Opposition-linked sources inside Iran reported three explosions in the Bandar Abbas area shortly afterward. Reports also emerged of unusual fighter jet activity over Tehran.
🎯 A targeted assassination of an IRGC member took place overnight in Andisheh, Tehran, marking the first such operation inside Iran since the April ceasefire began.
According to Israeli media, IRGC General Vahid Hakan, who was responsible for satellite contracts between IRIB and the IRGC-linked Khatam al-Anbiya, was eliminated in Tehran.
🔱 The U.S. military has quietly coordinated the safe passage of approximately 70 commercial ships through the Strait of Hormuz over the past three weeks, according to U.S. officials cited by the New York Times.
Most vessels reportedly traveled with tracking systems turned off and followed routes farther from Iran’s coastline in an effort to reduce the risk of drone or missile attacks.
🗣️ Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf stated: “The naval blockade and escalation of war crimes in Lebanon by the genocidal Zionist regime are clear evidence of U.S. noncompliance with the ceasefire. Every choice has a price, and the bill comes due. It will all fall into place.”
🇺🇸 President Donald Trump stated: “Iran really wants to make a deal, and it will be a good one for the U.S.A. and those that are with us. But don’t the Dumocrats, and various seemingly unpatriotic Republicans, understand that it is MUCH tougher for me to properly do my job and negotiate, when political hacks keep negatively “chirping,” at levels never seen before, over and over again, that I should move faster, or move slower, or go to war, or not go to war, or whatever. Just sit back and relax, it will all work out well in the end - It always does! President DJT”
