— 🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: Hezbollah has started mounting HEAT warheads on their FPV drones
In the above image, an FPV drone caught in Israeli anti-drone netting can be seen with a HEAT warhead belonging to the ‘MILAN’ anti-tank guided missile.
One of these was likely responsible for destroying the tank of Lt. Col. Ben Simhon, commander of the IDF’s 52nd Battalion, 401st Armored Brigade, in Kfar Tebnit last night.
The MILAN (Missile d’Infantrie Léger Antichar) is a French-German ATGM that has been extensively used in the Syrian Civil War and also by the Lebanese Army, which explains how Hezbollah likely procured it.
It is a somewhat old fashioned ATGM, developed back in the 1960s, and is therefore being used as a drone attachment instead of more high end shells like Iranian-made Almas or Russian Kornets.

‘The tank of Lieutenant Colonel Ben Simhon and three crew members, killed last night in Kfar Tebnit, has not yet been retrieved.
Their tank was blown up by Hezbollah, but the battle conditions on Ali Taher hill do not allow for it to be recovered until this moment, and nobody knows what happend or is happening.’
(Implying the bodies are possibly still in Lebanon and not yet retrieved).

Fotros Resistance
There’s a smell of betrayal. And I sadly cannot say more. Translation: Hamid Rasaei: Pay attention to these points: Parliament has been kept closed for more than three months and has had no public session. Everyone knows the reason was one thing: to prevent…
— Yes, the fact that Qalibaf keeps Parliament closed in order to shut down any dissent against the Memorandum of Understanding, is very worrying.
And it should be noted that even BEFORE the war, Qalibaf regularly failed to execute his duties as Parliament Speaker. I will give some examples from the top of my head.
He deliberately postponed the vote on leaving the NPT multiple times, until it was eventually shelved ‘indefinitely’ despite there being a big chance that it would’ve achieved a parliamentary majority. He also cut and limited the speaking time of government critics, like Dr. Amirhossein Sabeti, Mahmoud Nabavian, Rasaee, and so on.
And even before that. Back in 2023, the Parliament accepted the Hijab and Chastity law (seeking stricter and more efficient enforcement) with an overwhelming 152 votes in favor and 34 against.
But guess what? Despite the Guardian Council approving it, Qalibaf did not send the law to the President to be signed and implemented, which was supposed to happen.
First during Raisi’s time, when he knew it would be signed—and later during Pezeshkian’s time, when he covered for the Reformists and made sure that Pezeshkian didn’t need to sign it so he doesn’t lose popularity!
Qalibaf has been a joke for the past few years and nobody likes to see it because of his outwardly pro-revolutionary appearance, his history, and his IRGC ties. But he covers for Reformists 90% of the time.

The delegations will be more or less on par with those of the Islamabad Talks.
But it’s somewhat strange for Iran to meet with U.S. officials when even Paragraph 1, the most basic aspect of the MoU, is not being implemented.
At least the Strait of Hormuz will be closed while these talks happen, offering an additional piece of leverage.
