🇮🇷🇸🇦⚡️- BREAKING: Saudi Arabia carried out a series of unpublicized retaliatory strikes on Iran
I call bullshit on this one

The WSJ reported that the UAE carried out strikes, so now Saudi Arabia probably feels like it needs to announce something too, to avoid looking weak.

Anyone can claim ‘unpublicized strikes in Iran’ without evidence to back it up. At least for the Emiratis we had visual imagery to confirm it and an Iranian response that matches the claim.

🇰🇼🇮🇷| Iran’s MFA categorically rejects claims made by Kuwait that Iran was planning hostile actions against Kuwait.

The statement says Kuwait’s government is using the case of 4 Iranian citizens for political and propaganda purposes.

According to Iran, these people were Iranian officials who were on a routine maritime patrol/coastal guard mission, but because of a navigation-system disruption, they entered Kuwaiti territorial waters.

🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump on Truth Social:

‘When the Fake News says that the Iranian enemy is doing well, Militarily, against us, it’s virtual TREASON in that it is such a false, and even preposterous, statement. They are aiding and abetting the enemy! All it does is give Iran false hope when none should exist. These are American cowards that are rooting against our Country.

Iran had 159 ships in their Navy — Every single ship is now resting at the bottom of the sea. They have no Navy, their Air Force is gone, all Technology is gone, their “leaders” are no longer with us, and the Country is an Economic Disaster. Only Losers, Ingrates, and Fools are able to make a case against America! President DONALD J. TRUMP’

🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: A secret U.S. intelligence assessment shows that Iran still has access to 90% of its underground missile bases and launch sites nationwide — including at least 30 out of 33 missile sites along the Strait of Hormuz that are still operational – New York Times

🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: The current estimate is that about 10% of Iran’s missile bases have been permanently disabled by U.S. strikes, according to NYT

The remaining 90% of missile bases and launch sites throughout the country remain ‘either fully or partially operational’, and are likely too heavily fortified to disable with airstrikes alone.

🇮🇷/🇵🇰 NEW: Pakistan sheltering Iranian Air Force C-130s has been confirmed by satellite imagery

However, I don’t understand why the Trump people are suddenly shocked or outraged by this, as Iranian planes were already known to be stationed in Karachi during 12-Days War.
