— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump on Truth Social:

‘The U.S.A. has total control over the Strait of Hormuz. I THINK WE WILL KEEP IT! Our Naval Blockade is being called, by everyone, “A WALL OF STEEL,” and there is nothing Iran can do about it.

They have no Navy, they have no Air Force, their remaining soldiers are unpaid, the IRGC is decimated and fleeing, and their “Leadership” is uncertain, at best! They have No Money - Their country is “shot.” All they have is FAKE NEWS and 300% INFLATION, and getting worse!

Iran is all talk and no action, the Bully of the Middle East No Longer. Praise be to Allah!’

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: Sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln are experiencing a mental health crisis, with some sailors trying to jump overboard, per The Guardian

The aircraft carrier has been deployed at sea for more than 250 consecutive days—over 9 months in total—without making land, due to the ongoing war with Iran.

Families of the 5000 sailors are raising the alarm, saying that conditions aboard are ‘hellish’, with almost daily attacks, dwindling supplies, and limited rations.

One spouse of a sailor said that her husband had texted her one day saying ‘he hopes he doesn’t wake up tomorrow’. Various suicide attempts have been thwarted, and U.S. CENTCOM commanders warn of an impending mutiny if conditions about the ship don’t change for the better.

— Meanwhile, the average Iranian soldier or police officer, whose ration is a piece of bread, half a potato, some eggs, and likely has not received a salary in months, still does not complain and carries out his duties without any defects.

Love for the homeland cannot be bought or sold. Americans are used to luxury wars, but times have changed. This is not 2001 anymore.

Iranians have the longest breath.

🇺🇦‼️🇺🇸 WSJ: Ukrainian drone units decisively beat a U.S. armored brigade in a major exercise in Germany.

Ukrainian operators quickly detected U.S. vehicles, then simulated destroying them with explosive and FPV drones—so effectively that U.S. units had to repeatedly “respawn.”

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Persian Gulf Strait Authority:

‘The repeated claims and Tweets by U.S. officials regarding the Strait of Hormuz being open do not change the reality:

The Strait of Hormuz remains closed and will not be reopened until all of Iran’s conditions are met.’
