Oh great strikes on Iran are under way.
-
According to online reports, mariners transiting the Strait of Hormuz claim there have been radio announcements from the Iranian coast guard that they will begin closing the straight.
Iran has fired missiles towards several countries who host American military bases.
They generals state that they are currently using their oldest missiles for the initial response strikes and that their campaign will intensify and increase in quality as they begin pulling out their new technology.
This map is already a bit out of date I believe. From videos online it seems Israel's Haifa & Tel Aviv likely suffered direct strikes.

An aspect that the map above either was out of date for or willfully doesn't count is the reality that missile interceptors FREQUENTLY fail and will fall & deteonate on the civilians they were supposedly deployed to protect.
In Qatar an interceptor failed and didn't self destruct either. Civilians were forced to run for their lives.
The US media almost NEVER reports on this aspect of missile defense systems.

War harms civilians. Iran's response included strikes on targets clearly of strategic value but that will be condemned due to the presence of civilians.
One example is that Dubia's hotel district appears to have been hit be an Iranian drone.
Several angles show the drone striking near the Burj Khalifa(one such video below).
Other videos show damage to Kuwait Airport.

I think these strikes were designed to economically cripple anyone whose supporting or enabling the US and Israel.
It's also not just some tragedy. Its a DIRECT message to stop targetting the civilian leadership of the Iranian government.
The US KNEW targeting the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian would mean a "total war" response.
So Iran is willing to strike Dubai. A target valued by the world's top capitalist.

Trump literally just tried to KILL the civilian leadership of a foreign nation with NO congressional approval at all!
For the US, by its own rules, this entire operation was illegal from this first missile fired.
So while I call it like I see it, "Iran hit civilians", its hard as fuck to think that justifies ANYTHING America and Israel is doing right now.
I think the US and Israel should leave Iran the fuck alone and stop fucking around.

So I pray that the US military has the exact same take as this sailor whose video is going viral this morning.
"Oh fuck we gotta get outta here"

So its now night time in Bahrain and the Iranian drones are NOT letting up.
It's going to take time to review these more carefully.
A thing to know about the US Navy in Bahrain is that they don't have on base housing.
This means basically the most hated military target in one of the most critical locations disperses it's military force among the civilian populace ON purpose to make them hard to target without harming civilians.
I suspect we're seeing Iran taking that gamble.

The Iranian missile strikes are ALSO unrelenting in Bahrain tonight.
They have continued to hit the US military base with missiles.
There's growing chatter of a full blown US air defense failure in multiple countries right now. Again, going to take time to understand as an OSINT nerd but this seems like US AD is overwhelmed.
They may still be making a lot of intercepts when you understand the volume of fire coming from Iran ...

And that's the rub.
If this is an air war, the US is "supposed" to dominate.
Earlier in the day US missiles were seen pounding Iran's mountain missile bases and various storage facilities.
The fact Iran's making strikes tonight means there's NO meaningful impact to Iran's offensive capabilities.
Again, it's likely some AD is still working in and near Bahrain and we're only seeing the 10% or whatever rate of missiles and drones that make it through.
Iran's still operating as normal I think

Qatar is also suffering notable air defense failures.
This video is VERY interesting. In it we see an Iranian ballistical missile just plain out maneuvering TWO missile intercepters and scoring a direct hit on a US base. Likely further degrading their air defense capabilities.
That last interceptor in-particular was just late as fuck. This looked like a severe speed over-match or something.

Iran is UNRELENTING tonight.
What's that buzz?
Oh just ANOTHER $30k Iranian drone striking the US Navy HQ in Bahrain unopposed.

I see my Black friends waking up to the Iran news rn.
Pretty much universal take at the moment.

On a social level... I can't help but notice the videos filmed by english speaking westerners are clearly upset seeing US bases hit. They're running and crying for cover.
Meanwhile, I don't speak Arabic or Persian(maybe someone can help us out), but I can't help but notice the Bahrain videos posted by non-english speakers are far more calm, not taking cover, don't seem frantic.
I could be mistaken but they kinda seem to be cheering in some. Kinda feel like not everybody's sad about this.

Nah, I'm not imagining it lmao.
The Bahrain locals are cheering everytime the US base is hit tonight.
And from the absolute torrent of strikes I'm seeing tonight I think they all gonna loose their voices tonight
US looking cooked in Bahrain.

#Bahrain continues to have reports of drone strikes. There's currently so many angles of missiles and drones mid-flight that I'm struggling to de-duplicate them to determine which are verifiable new strikes.
Some of the first locations hit in Bahrain could be seen burning through the night with little to no fire first responders active due to the continued risk of follow on strikes.
The locals laugh about that apartment building burning down. Looks like a total loss.

Tel Aviv was not spared.
Zionist occupying Palestine report that there's been a wave of Iranian missiles roughly every thirty minutes over night.
There's now several different reports of Iranian missiles hitting targets on the ground in Tel Aviv, again demonstrating a massive speed overmatch versus existing air defense systems.

On the ground footage in Tel Aviv shows extensive collateral damage to city blocks.
Much like the Bahrain apartment building, it's too early to know if there was a military target in the area.
To my eyes both sides Iran & Israel have previously and currently been acting on targeting intelligence that revealed high value military targets in civilian areas. It took a lot of time for public OSINT to catch up. I think we're seeing some of that rn

I'll be interested to see what's still standing on US bases in the next two days.
The last time Israel attacked Iran it cost around $1 billion dollars to defend Israel from Iran's $80M missile response.
I think we might be watching a couple BILLION in US assets going up in smoke tonight.
The radar systems in Bahrain alone, which Iran likely damaged/destroyed, are worth $1B. The US likely fired nearly $1B of missile interceptors as well over night.
