—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araqchi:

‘President Trump is absolutely right. Whoever provides secure and safe passage of commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz should be compensated for this service.

Iran has always been the GUARDIAN of the Strait of Hormuz and will remain so FOREVER.

20% is of course too much. We will be fair.’

—❗️🇾🇪 Statement by the Yemeni Armed Forces spokesman, General Yahya Saree:

‘In its insistence on continuing the unjust siege against the Yemeni people, the Saudi enemy, at precisely 13:54 PM this Monday, launched a blatant attack using its warplanes against Sanaa International Airport.

By targeting it with a number of airstrikes with the aim of closing it to humanitarian flights carrying patients and stranded individuals, the Armed Forces engaged the enemy aircraft to repel this treacherous and cowardly attack.

In response to this criminal Saudi aggression, the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a military operation targeting Abha International Airport with a number of ballistic missiles and drones. The operation successfully achieved its objectives, praise be to God.

The Saudi enemy, after its reckless decision to launch this unjust attack on Sanaa International Airport, bears full responsibility for the grave consequences of this brutal aggression, which serves the Zionist-American enemy, and all the resulting repercussions.

The Yemeni Armed Forces affirm their unwavering commitment to the cause of repelling this aggression and lifting the unjust blockade imposed on our country.

In this context, we warn all airlines against flying through Saudi airspace and urge them to take our warnings seriously until the blockade on Sanaa International Airport is lifted.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the Islamic Republic of Iran for its assistance to the Republic of Yemen in lifting the blockade on Sanaa, and for facilitating humanitarian flights to and from the airport.

Greetings to our great people who have taken to the streets in massive public demonstrations in the capital, and in the provinces, districts, villages, and rural areas. And all praise to our loyal and noble tribes for their massive demonstrations and their authentic, faith-based, jihadist stances.

Our great people will not accept the continuation of the aggression and blockade, and their Armed Forces, with God's help, are fully prepared to take all necessary steps and measures to deter the aggression and lift this blockade.

God is sufficient for us, and He is the best of guardians, the best of protectors, and the best of helpers. Long live Yemen, free, dignified, and independent!’

🇺🇸🇮🇷| Trump: "We’ll attack them hard tonight, we’ll attack them hard tomorrow. They can't do anything about it. They just have big mouths. I know them now. They are a bunch of crazy and fanatical people."

Trump about to offer American lives on a silver plate just because of his ego.

The entire convoy of U.S.-escorted commercial ships is being targeted.

Another ship hit. 3rd of the night.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: A few hours ago, President Trump said the U.S. would take out Iran’s most deeply fortified underground nuclear site, called ‘Pickaxe Mountain’ (near Natanz)

For reference, Pickaxe Mountain is located more than 100 meters underground, beneath a mountain made of pure granite, one of the hardest rocks in existence. It is several times deeper and more hardened than Fordow, which itself was likely only marginally damaged.

It is presumed to be the location of Iran’s highly enriched uranium stockpile, and possibly covert enrichment cascade halls.

The site is so well-fortified that the U.S. did not even ATTEMPT to target it in 2025 or 2026. Most analysts agree that Pickaxe Mountain could only be taken out by a tactical nuclear weapon—and even then, success is not assured.
