  • couple of the last posts from @AryJeay

    According to locals in Bahrain, a Patriot interceptor missile this morning, fell on people’s houses.

    So far the general opinion of people in Iran, 6 hours since the announcement of ceasefire talks:

    • People congratulate each other for the cessation of fire.
    • Most people believe the ceasefire will not last for long.
    • Most people did not mind the war to last longer, and wanted more attacks against Israel, US and the “2-faced” Arab regimes.

    Up and till an hour ago, Kuwait says its air defenses were confronting an Iranian drone attack since 8 AM

    Iran’s IRGC gives details on the last wave, the 100th wave of attacks against 25 targets. This includes 13 US-affiliated energy & oil complexes, 10 military, security, and logistical targets, and several technology and infrastructure targets.

    Targets were:

    • The Chevron in Ras al-Jouiyeh refinery and oil facilities belonging to an American company, Saudi Arabia, the largest NLG separation facility and an energy supplier to the US.
    • The oil and petrochemical facilities of ExxonMobil and Dow Chemical in Jubail, Saudi Arabia.
    • The oil facilities of American companies in Yanbu on the Red Sea coast, with a production capacity of 250,000 barrels per day.
    • US oil facilities in Habshan — the Dubai-to-Fujairah oil pipeline used to bypass the Strait of Hormuz.
    • The major oil facilities of ExxonMobil in Ras Laffan, Qatar, with a production capacity of 146,000 barrels per day.
    • The major oil facilities of the US-linked BAPCO refinery in Bahrain, producing 267,000 barrels per day.
    • The American refinery in Das, UAE, with a crude processing capacity of 60,000 barrels per day.
    • The facilities of American oil companies in Fujairah with a storage capacity of one million cubic meters.
    • The Al-Ahmadi refinery in Kuwait, with a production capacity of 346,000 barrels per day.
    • The US Dolphin gas company, based in Qatar, with an export capacity of 2 billion cubic feet per day.
    • The Zir Kuh oil island, with a production capacity of 750,000 barrels of crude oil per day.
    • The American company SATORP — a refinery with a capacity of 460,000 barrels per day and one of the fuel sources for power plants.
    • The American Manifa gas refinery, with an oil and gas separation capacity of 900,000 barrels per day.
    • The regime’s IT centers and advanced industries in Beersheba, in ‘Israel’.
    • The intelligence & surveillance centers of the regime’s army and security apparatuses in the Azrieli and Almas towers in Jerusalem
    • US Central Command in Jordan, and the destruction of major targets there.
    • Ben Gurion Airport
    • Haifa oil refinery
    • Israeli governmental complex in Jerusalem, the site of the regime’s command and control centers.

    The IRGC-Navy attacked:

    • The amphibious assault ship LHA-7 was hit by cruise missiles and, after damage and a fire on deck, withdrew into the Indian Ocean.
    • The aircraft carrier CVN-74 was also struck by several drones and, after sustaining hull damage, withdrew into the Indian Ocean.
    • An Israeli drone manufacturing factory based in the UAE.
    • Oil facilities invested in by American companies at LSB in Kuwait.
    • Ali Al-Salem US base, Kuwait.

    Around 10 AM today, Iran’s Lavan oil refinery facilities on Lavan Island were attack by the enemies. In response, Iran struck targets inside UAE & Kuwait (1-2 hours ago)

    Deadly attacks by Israel on Lebanon’s Beirut with many casualties sadly…

    BREAKING: Iran’s IRGC just shot down an Israeli Hermes-900 drone in Fars Province.

    Iran is finalising plans to respond to Israel's ceasefire violations on Lebanon. A security-military informed source told the official Fars News outlet:

    Following Israel’s continued violation of the temporary ceasefire against Lebanon and Hezbollah, Iran is in the process of finalising to carry out deterrent operations against Israeli military positions in ‘Israel’.

    This source emphasized: In Tehran, the notion is being strengthened that the continuation of attacks by the regime despite agreements on all fronts indicates that either the US cannot control Netanyahu or the US Central Command has granted freedom of action to the Zionist regime.

    Iran’s Foreign Minister spoke with the commander of the Pakistan army (mediator) on the phone. Both sides discussed the ceasefire violations in Iran and Lebanon by the Israeli regime. Iran likely informed the mediator that it will respond to Israel.

    Saudi Arabia’s MoD says its air defenses were responding to an Iranian drone attack. (Second post) An oil industry source told Reuters that Saudi Arabia's huge east-west pipeline to the Red Sea has been hit with reported damage. The pipeline is the main route Saudi used to bypass the Strait of Hormuz for some of its oil.

    Iran’s spokesperson of the parliament's national security commission: The Lebanese sacrificed their lives for us, and we must not leave them alone for a moment. Ceasefire either on all fronts or on no front.

    Iran told mediators it will only join Iran-US talks in Pakistan if a ceasefire is reached in Lebanon — WSJ

    Iran has halted the passage of vessels through the Strait of Hormuz after Israel’s ceasefire violations against Lebanon — Fars

    Air defense activity over Isfahan, Iran (Second post) Following reports of air defense activity in several places inside Iran, there seems to be no reported explosion anywhere. The sound of explosions has been attributed to air defense activity.

  • I recognized gex, spyro, rayman, cloud, lara croft, parappa the rapper

  • Iranian air defense shot down another MQ-9 Reaper drone.

  • Examples of Iranian missile strikes and the helplessness of missile defense systems. A video appeared showing a strike on the headquarters of the US 5th Fleet in Bahrain, another showing US soldiers hiding and something (not shrapnel) falling from the sky in Erbil, Iraq, and another one of a strike on one of the combat units at a US base in Jordan.

    Videos of MQ-9 Reaper drones shot down by Iranian air defenses. 16 destroyed so far at around $33 million each according to public sources.

    Iran displayed the wreckage of a Chinese Wing Loong 2 unmanned aerial vehicle, which according to authorities in Tehran was shot down near the city of Shiraz. It was initially assumed to be another MQ-9 Reaper, but a comparison of photos of the wreckage suggests that it was a Chinese-made drone. Judging by the missile debris it was shot down by the 9-Dey short-range air defense system, a modification of the 3rd Khordad medium-range air defense system. The Wing Loong 2 MALE-class unmanned aerial vehicles are not used by the US or Israel, but are in the possession of the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.

    A video appeared of an Israeli missile striking an Iranian ZU-23-2 23mm anti-aircraft gun mounted on the roof of a high-rise building in Tehran.

    An image showing the arrival of a US EA-37B Compass Call electronic warfare aircraft at Mildenhall Air Base in the UK. A day earlier, two EA-37B aircraft with registration numbers 19-1587 and 17-5579 were spotted flying from the US to the UK under the call signs AXIS41 and AXIS43.

    A video showing the launch of what appear to be ER GMLRS missiles from HIMARS rocket launchers on Bubiyan Island in Kuwait toward targets in Iran. The ER GMLRS is a variant of the GMLRS missile with an extended range of up to 150 kilometers.

    Images and videos showing the aftermath of bombing of ammunition and missile depots in the mountains near the city of Isfahan.

    According to reports, 18 A-10C attack aircraft from the 107th National Guard Squadron took off from Pease Air Force Base in New Hampshire and landed in the UK.

    Since March 13, US Air Force transport aircraft have made at least 10 flights from Fort Bragg (Pope AFB) and Fort Campbell. At least four flights from Fort Campbell with stopovers at Ramstein Air Base in Germany, continuing to Nevatim Air Base in Israel and Aqaba Airport in Jordan. At least six flights took off from Pope AFB, which is part of Fort Bragg, five of them on March 22-23. Some of them also landed at Nevatim (Israel), while the rest landed at King Abdullah II Air Base in Jordan.

  • Satellite images showing the aftermath of Iranian missile and drone attacks on the 'Camp Buehring' US military base in Kuwait. We can see destroyed aircraft hangars, military barracks, a gymnasium, warehouses, a power plant, and other buildings.

  • I found this bit in a random news article, don't know how trustworthy the site is, the article also has an embedded video of the crane getting hit, I guess they were aiming for some western assets in the area, I think part of decentralized command is every node can make that call on their own if they think a target is worth it

    The Armed Forces of Iran claimed responsibility for the attack while asserting they were attacking a U.S. support ship. They highlighted that the attack had taken place at a distance of more than a thousand kilometers (more than 620 miles) from the Iranian coast.

  • Soldiers from the engineering units (sappers) of the DPRK and the Russian Federation, behind them the Russian Uran-6 de-mining robot and the D12 unmanned bulldozer, which rarely appears in video footage and is manufactured by the Chelyabinsk Tractor Plant DST-Ural. The Russian and North Korean sappers are clearing out mines in the Kursk Oblast.

  • An Iranian ballistic missile struck the city of Eilat. Based on available footage it was determined the missile was aimed at an EAPC oil storage facility but landed several hundred meters away from its target.

    Photo evidence confirms the destruction of a E-3G Sentry AWACS early warning aircraft at Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. The tail number of the aircraft, 81-0005 AE11EE, indicates that it was stationed in Oklahoma, from where it was deployed to Saudi Arabia in late February.

    The IRGC released footage showing its air defense forces shooting down a US MQ-9 Reaper drone over the city of Shiraz. The drone was assisting in guiding airstrikes carried out by US aircraft at the time.

    A video appeared showing two ballistic missiles being launched from an underground missile base (deep in the mountains) in Yazd, Iran.

    A video appeared showing the port of Sultan in Oman, where an Iranian drone damaged a port crane. [looking at some recent reports it's actually the Salalah Port]

    A video appeared showing the US base in Erbil, Iraq, repelling a drone attack using the C-RAM system.

    A video appeared showing an Israeli KC-707 tanker aircraft and 6 Israeli F-15s flying over Syria en route to Iran.

    The amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli, carrying the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, arrived in the CENTCOM 'area of responsibility'. It consists of the amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli (LHA-7), the dock landing ship USS San Diego (LPD-22), and its sister ship USS New Orleans (LPD-18), which are also carrying approximately 20 F-35B fighter jets and helicopters. The unit received orders to deploy two weeks ago.

  • theoretically there should be some overlap and support between the two, not sure how Hasan listeners would react though, remember he cautions his ultras to stand down during electoralism talk

  • btw about Hasan I realized I never hear him mentioned in the extended tankie podcast sphere, and they do sometimes bring up mainstream people like Macklemore, I guess they don’t take him seriously

  • Overnight, Iran used drones to strike fuel tanks at an airport in Kuwait

    An Iranian air defense missile fired from a light anti-drone missile system struck a F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and caused minor damage to it.

    The Iranian military struck a phosphate chemical plant in Dimona with a missile.

    Iran fired two missiles at the Orot Rabin power plant in Hadera, Israel.

    Iraqi militias supporting Iran attacked the US Victory Base in Baghdad using FPV drones. The attacks targeted a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter and an AN/MPQ-64 Sentinel radar. Both attacks were successful, and the targets were damaged.

    An increasing number of Iranian missiles are penetrating Israel’s missile defense system.

    B-52H aircraft taking off from Middleton Air Base carrying AGM-158B JASSM-ER missiles and GBU-31 JDAM bombs.

    A video showing a bombing raid on Iranian underground ammunition depots located near the coastal airport of Bandar Abbas. It appears the B-1B Lancer strategic bombers have once again used bunker-busting bombs (GBU-72), since the footage looks similar to a previously released video.

    The British Ministry of Defense reports that it has deployed Stromer air defense systems to the Middle East [to me the statement implies that they will stay in Cyprus]. It also claims to have destroyed 14 Iranian drones in a "high-risk area".

  • On the night of March 24th/25th, over 400 Ukrainian drones attacked several targets in Russia.

    The Ust-Luga oil terminal on the Baltic Sea and the NOVATEK-Ust-Luga plant which processes gas condensate and exports petroleum products. Both ports are key oil terminals for Russian oil exports to the Baltic Sea.

    The shipyard/port of Vyborg in the Leningrad Oblast was attacked using kamikaze drones based on the Aeroprakt A-22 light aircraft. As a result of the drone attack, the latest Project 23550 border guard patrol vessel/icebreaker (Yermak-class) collided with an adjacent vessel.

  • yeah, it seems this NASA FIRMS service is meant to detect and show fires, I was curious so I checked the coordinates from the image and it does show a red square if you specify 20th of March as the date, btw it also shows a red square for the refinery in Haifa (Bazan Haifa) on March 20th.

    Red squares show satellite derived thermal anomalies which may be from fire, hot smoke, agriculture or other sources.

    Detected activity could be a small, intense fire or a fire burning over a broader area within the pixel. It does not mean the entire square is entirely on fire.

  • US satellite imagery has detected thermal anomalies at Ben Ami military base in Israel, which houses several military warehouses. A possible Iranian ballistic missile attack.

    This morning Iran launched an attack on the US/UK base Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. Apparently one of the missiles was shot down by an SM-3 missile shot from a Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, while the other fell into the water. In any case it demonstrates that Iran is capable of carrying out attacks over a distance of more than 2000 km.

    Iranian-allied militias have once again attacked a U.S. military base in Baghdad.

    The US and Israel carried out an attack on Vahdati air base and ammunition depot in Dezful, Iran.

  • 'I say.. I'm almost late for the soiree.. it is settled then, I will just continue luxuriating'

  • Haifa oil refinery after Iranian missile attack

    IRGC speedboat attack on a ship in the Strait of Hormuz

  • a few bits picked out from polish osint guy's last posts

    As promised, Iran launched a retaliatory strike on Riyadh, in response to Israel’s attack on its gas fields. The scale of the fires in Riyadh’s industrial zone is visible in NASA satellite images.

    A massive fire broke out at the Ras Laffan refinery in Qatar following an Iranian missile attack. The state-owned company Qatar Energy reports that the Iranian attacks caused significant damage to the facility. Fires are visible at the world’s largest natural gas liquefaction facility, Pearl GTL, and at the Ras Laffan condensate refinery. The Ras Laffan industrial complex contains the world’s largest LNG export terminal, with a production capacity of 77 million tons per year. Image below from a Chinese satellite.

    A satellite image from March 16, 2026, shows burning oil tanks in the port of Fujairah, an oil and industrial region in the United Arab Emirates, following Iranian attacks last weekend. The image was captured by the ultra-compact Zorkiy-M2 satellite, owned by the private Russian company Sputnix. This indirectly shows that Russian satellites are positioned over the Persian Gulf.

    The United States has announced the first combat use of the new GBU-72 Advanced 5K Penetrator, a 2270 kg bunker-busting bomb tested in 2021. According to CENTCOM, several were dropped on fortified Iranian anti-ship missile positions along the coast of the Strait of Hormuz. The munition has a reinforced casing and is GPS-guided, serving as an intermediate option between the less powerful GBU-28 and the GBU-57 MOP.

  • all right, source post, he only posts on facebook which is quite restrictive if viewed without an account (I'm def not making one), it always forces a 'sign in' popup after some clicking or scrolling so it's tricky to navigate, as far as I know there is no xcancel type frontend for fb

    what I can do though is run his posts through archive.is and include links to that, it will at least preserve the text portion, or I can link directly to the fb posts
