(Admin note: How nice that European countries finally pretended to care about human rights when it’s about European or Western citizens — when Palestinians and Lebanese have been subjected to far worse than this)

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: Iran has rapidly started rebuilding military capabilities that were lost in the recent war, according to U.S. intelligence assessments

Among these capabilities, Iran has already restarted some of its drone production during the six-week ceasefire that began in early April, according to two sources familiar with U.S. intelligence assessments.

Four sources told CNN that U.S. intelligence indicates Iran’s military is reconstituting much faster than initially estimated. ‘The Iranians have exceeded all timelines the IC had for reconstitution’, one U.S. official said.

While the time to restart production of different weapons components varies, some estimates indicate Iran could fully reconstitute its drone attack capability in as soon as six months, one of the sources, a U.S. official, told CNN.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump:

‘We have total control of the Strait of Hormuz, as you know.

We wiped out Iran’s navy, wiped out their air force, we knocked out 85% of their drone and missile capacity.

But look, we will either make sure Iran won’t have a nuclear weapon, or we will have to do something very drastic.’
