U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has released video of a U.S. Air Force A-10C Thunderbolt II refueling from a KC-135 Stratotanker of the 190th Air Refueling Wing, Kansas Air National Guard, over the CENTCOM Area-of-Responsibility (AOR).

According to Bloomberg, citing a U.S. official with knowledge on the matter, President Donald J. Trump has “no plans” currently to deploy U.S. troops in Iran, specifically Iran’s strategically and economically important Kharg Island, but caveated the statement by saying that the U.S. will retain the ability to do so if ordered by President Trump.

According to Politico, citing two people familiar with the matter, the U.S. rejected a proposal from the Head of Russia’s Direct Investment Fund, Kirill Dmitriev, that Russia will stop sharing intelligence with Iran on U.S. bases and infrastructure in the Middle East if the U.S. stops sharing intelligence with Ukraine, during his meeting last week in Miami, Florida with White House Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff and White House Envoy Jared Kushner. For the first time confirming that Russia is indeed assisting Iran with targeting data, data that has likely resulted in the death of Americans.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump has issued an Executive Order directing the Secretary of Commerce and Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to work with the College Football Playoffs and broadcast partners to ensure no other football games are broadcast during the Army-Navy Game.

According to Reuters, citing a source with knowledge on the matter, U.S. and Ukrainian officials are set to meet in Miami tomorrow. The meeting, which will not include principal decision-makers, will include U.S. negotiators, led by White House Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and White House Envoy Jared Kushner. Ukrainian negotiators will be led by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s Chef of Staff Kyrylo Budanov, his ‌deputy Serhiy Kyslytsia, and Davyd Arakhamia, the head of his parliamentary faction. The meeting is meant to work out bilateral agreements, including a drone deal that is currently in the works between Ukraine and the United States.

Barksdale Air Force Base in Shreveport, Louisiana, has confirmed to ABC News that during the week of 9-15 March, several waves of multiple drones were spotted over the base that hosts the nuclear-capable B-52H Stratofortress. The statement goes on to say, "Security Forces observed multiple waves of 12-15 drones operating over sensitive areas of the installation, including the flight line, with aircraft displaying non-commercial signal characteristics, long-range control links, and resistance to jamming."

Gregg Phillips, Head of the Office of Response and Recovery at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), said in January 2025 during an episode of the far-right conspiracy theory podcast Onward, that he has experienced multiple instances of teleportation, including to a Waffle House in Georgia. With Phillips stating, “Teleporting is no fun. It’s no fun because you don’t really know what you’re doing. You don’t really understand it, it’s scary, but yet um – but so real. And you know it’s happening but you can’t do anything about it, and so you just go, you just go with the ride. And wow, what just an incredible adventure it all was.”

In other parts of the podcast episode, Phillips claimed that his vehicle “lifted up” while he was driving and carried him roughly 40 miles to a ditch near a church from Albany, Georgia. Phillips said the experiences were frightening and uncontrollable, and questioned at the time whether they were “evil” or “good,” but insisted they were real and had happened more than once.

As tensions with U.S. President Donald J. Trump peaked in recent month, the Danish Armed Forces had developed detailed plans to blow up airfields in Greenland in the event of an Invasion by the United States, with Soldiers who were sent to Greenland equipped with blood supplies and explosives to disable the runways in Nuuk, Greenland’s capital, and in Kangerlussuaq, a small town in the Arctic Circle, two Europeans officials told the Danish Broadcasting Corporation.

U.S. Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum speaking earlier on Fox News: “What we might consider our traditional allies from Europe have been less than reliable. And from the time that we've spent working with those folks in Eastern Europe, the closer they are to Russia, the more aligned they are with President Trump and the more aligned they are on energy policy.”

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has released imagery of the Esfahan Khomeynishahr Drone Production Plant in Central Iran both before and after it was destroyed by U.S. strike(s) sometime between March 3rd and 12th.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump states that the United States doesn’t use or need the Strait of Hormuz.

In a post moments ago on TruthSocial, President Trump stated that they are getting “very close” to meeting their objectives in the Iran War and are considering winding down military efforts in the Middle East directed at Iran, with those objectives including:

1. “Completely degrading Iranian Missile Capability, Launchers, and everything else pertaining to them.”

2. “Destroying Iran's Defense Industrial Base.”

3. “Eliminating their Navy and Air Force, including Anti Aircraft Weaponry.”

4. “Never allowing Iran to get even close to Nuclear Capability, and always being in a position where the U.S.A. can quickly and powerfully react to such a situation, should it take place.”

5. “Protecting, at the highest level, our Middle Eastern Allies, including Israel, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, and others.”

President Trump closes the post by stating regarding the Strait of Hormuz: “The Hormuz Strait will have to be guarded and policed, as necessary, by other Nations who use it - The United States does not! If asked, we will help these Countries in their Hormuz efforts, but it shouldn't be necessary once Iran's threat is eradicated. Importantly, it will be an easy Military Operation for them.”

U.S. President Donald J. Trump is weighing whether to send possibly thousands of American troops into Iran as he looks for a way to achieve some of his key goals and end the war, according to the two current U.S. officials, two former U.S. officials and another person familiar with the discussions who spoke to NBC News.

Several options are under discussion, with one aimed at freeing up passage in the Strait of Hormuz by deploying troops to Iranian ports or small islands in the Persian Gulf to mitigate the threat to vessels, while others include an operation to retrieve Iran’s highly-enriched uranium or using troops to seize Iran’s oil facilities to cut off a key financial lifeline and attempt to extract concessions from the Islamic Regime.

The scale and duration of any deployment of U.S. troops inside of Iran would depend on the type of operation, but it could range from hundreds of specialized forces operating on the ground for a number of hours, to thousands over a matter of weeks, though none of the options that are being seriously considered are expected to involve large-scale deployments like those in Iraq or Afghanistan.
