โ๏ธ Drones, Missiles, launched from Iran, Yemen, Lebanon & Iraq towards the same targets. We haven't seen that before.
A regional war would be devastating, & the outcome could (positively or negatively) reshape the region for decades.
Will Trump ignite it ?

๐ตโโ๏ธ๐I was able to more precisely geolocate the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72), and IRGC Drones seem to be flying over Trump's Armada.
โ๏ธ CMV-22B reg 169453 took off from Duqm and disappeared around 09H30UTC
Same CMV-22B leaves the aircraft carrier and appears at 11H23UTC
It leaves less than two hours to land, do whatever they have to do, and take off again. Cannot be further than this area due to speed.
Bonus: The path of the Iranian Shahed-129 type drone today, definitely visually sighting the aircraft carrier.

๐บ๐ธโ๏ธ๐จ๐ณ 2 x US Air Force C-17 from Joint Base Andrews (Washington) landed in Beijing, China, with transponders switched off.
4 digit callsign (RCH4150) means "high level mission" such as transport of cars for the president & its security service.
Trump will likely visit China soon.
