Iran Strikes Air bases in Jordan including F-35 hangars

🔺 IRGC Claims Strikes on U.S. Air Base in Jordan, Says 21 Targets Hit Across Region

The IRGC issued a statement claiming it struck 21 targets at U.S. air and naval bases across the region and separately targeted Al-Azraq Air Base in Jordan, according to Khabar Fouri.

The statement said IRGC aerospace forces used long-range solid-fuel missiles to destroy four targets at Al-Azraq, including F-35 fighter hangars and a command and control center. The IRGC also reiterated its earlier claim of shooting down a U.S. MQ-9 drone over Jam County in Bushehr Province.

“Our forces are ready to deliver a crushing and decisive response to any renewed aggression by the enemy,” the statement said, adding that “the consequences of any renewed aggression lie with the American enemy.”

The claims could not be independently verified.

Iran strikes back

🔹The IRGC issued the following statement, via Tasnim News:

“The war-mongering American regime in the early hours of this morning, under false pretexts, attacked several locations in Jask, Sirik, and Qeshm, causing damage to a telecommunications tower in Sirik and destroying two water storage tanks in the Bamani district of that county.

In response to this malicious act by the enemy, fighters of the IRGC Navy at 2:30 AM launched a drone attack against the U.S. Fifth Fleet in Bahrain.

Engagements are continuing and the noble guardians of the Iranian nation are responding to the enemy’s aggressions. If the hostilities continue, heavier responses are on the way.”

Iran has announced the end of its current wave of retaliatory strikes against Israel. Trump again claims negotiations are proceeding. Iran has maintained it is open to a deal and says it is Trump who has prevented it for the past 3 weeks.

The current focus for Iran centers on two primary issues: Ending the Israeli aggression against Lebanon and unfreezing Iranian assets as a condition for any deal.

The Iranian military suggested today that regarding Lebanon, the red line is not just halting Israeli attacks on Beirut, but ending the attacks on the south entirely. The Iranian military said today, “if the aggressions and evils continue, including in southern Lebanon, much more severe and crushing measures will be on the way.”

Iran has also said that as a condition for any MOU with Trump/US, a substantial amount of its assets must be repatriated. Trump keeps insisting that he will not do this.

If there is progress on these issues, Iran has said it is open to resuming the negotiations on an MOU. The ball remains in Trump’s court and Iran still believes it holds significant leverage. Trump keeps deluding himself into believing Iran will capitulate. The reality has been clear for weeks: A deal will only happen if Trump makes concessions on Iran’s core demands. Without a doubt, Trump’s people are trying to find a way to hide these potential concessions and explore secret tracks to meet Iran’s conditions while preserving his fictitious “victory” narrative.

We had Josh Paul on BP this morning to break down what this means. It would give Israel extraordinary leverage over the U.S. by embedding their technology in our supply chains and weapons systems.

Iran celebrating pride month by blockading another straight

I think they have been targeting radar installations there was a dashcam video of one getting hit in northern Israel a few months back

$800 FPV drone has further democratized precision strike capability. A full Iron Dome system costs up to $100M.

Not exactly sure about the pricing, but the overall sentiment is accurate. Hezbollah really has come back and hit hard. Years of interceptors gone just from a drone, and they have to be running low just from Iranian salvos. And that other system right next to it is probably going to be hit too. I don’t see how Israel is going to continue to operate militarily in the same way as they have been for decades now going forward
