BREAKING | 🇮🇷🇺🇸‼️ Smoke has been seen rising over Sirik in Iran’s Hormozgan Province following earlier reports of multiple explosions in the area.

The cause of the explosions remains unknown, with Iranian media outlets yet to provide an explanation. Earlier reports suggested possible anti-ship ballistic missile launches from the area, but no connection between those claims and the explosions has been established.

The lack of official information leaves open questions about what occurred in Sirik, a coastal area near the Strait of Hormuz. For now, neither the cause of the explosions nor any potential military involvement has been confirmed.

"White House sources: In the past few hours, there has apparently been a change in the American position in favor of a preemptive strike on Iran."

בשעות האחרונות חל שינוי לכאורה בעמדה האמריקאית לטובת מתקפת מנע על איראן.

מקורות בבית הלבן מסבירים את השינוי בעיקר מהמשקל הרב שנתן הנשיא טראמפ להערכות ולמודיעין שהביא בפניו שר ההגנה פיט הגסת׳ עם שובו מהפגישה עם ראש הממשלה נתניהו. - יהושוע מאירי-ליכטר

President Macron says foreign leaders are being fooled by AI-generated videos of riots that never happened.

Speaking in Doha, Macron condemned what he called “unacceptable and even stupid comments,” accusing foreign actors of manipulating the narrative.

He also rejected claims that France had been overrun by migrants and Islamists as “completely false.”

CORRECTION: Within the past hour, we shared reports from Reuters and AFP claiming that U.S. embassy staff and their families were leaving the Gulf.

The U.S. State Department has since denied the broader claim, and we have deleted our original post.

What is confirmed: According to State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott, the department has ordered the departure of non-emergency U.S. government personnel and their family members from Saudi Arabia only.

RT @UnderSecT: As just announced in the @UN First Committee, Russia’s COSMOS 2612 military satellite has been exhibiting threatening behavior by intentionally maneuvering dangerously close to a commercial satellite, behaviors consistent with on-orbit weapons operations. This violates long-established safety thresholds in low Earth orbit. The United States will continue to secure and defend American vital national security interests in, from, and to space.
