🇺🇸🇰🇷 The US dismantled its THAAD and Patriot Systems in South Korea and sent them to the Middle East.

▪️ In 2017, South Korea sacrificed its diplomatic and economic relations with China to host US THAAD.

▪️ Chinese tourism to South Korea, worth billions of dollars, was abruptly stopped due to diplomatic standoff.

▪️K-Pop was banned in China.

▪️ Hyundai and Kia had to close their factories in China, ultimately losing their market shares in China.

▪️ South Korea lost billions of dollars of exports to China in order to host US THAAD and Patriot Systems.

Now, US has dismantled its THAAD and Patriot Missile Systems in South Korea and is sending to Middle East.

📝: The ROK is far more important to the American economy than Israel is. If the U.S. subsidises Israel, the ROK invested billions into the U.S. to build Lithium-Ion batteries for EVs, computer chips, it builds ships for the U.S. Navy, it does maintenance for the U.S. Navy and is investing in the Philly Shipyard to get it back working.

South Korea is far more critical to the U.S. than Israel was or will ever be and America betrayed another ally.

🇮🇷⚔️🇺🇸🇰🇼 Iranian satellite imagery shows the Ali Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait.

Unclear if a cluster-warhead was used, but it looks like the fighter jet (top right) on the tarmac is leaking oil.

Several MQ-9 Reaper drone shelters were destroyed and several warehouses.

🇺🇸⚔️🇮🇷 The U.S. now has 15 bombers (12 B-1Bs and 3 B-52s) at RAF Fairford in the UK flying missions against Iran.

Footage shows U.S. B-1B bombers being loaded with bunker-buster JDAM bombs at RAF Fairford.

This suggests improving air superiority over parts of Iran, allowing bombers to carry out direct strikes on hardened targets such as bunkers and underground facilities instead of relying only on cruise missiles.

Patriot interceptors attempted two interceptions, firing six missiles, but failed to stop the strike.

The video is a few days old.

🇮🇱🇸🇴⚔️🇾🇪 Israel is quietly exploring plans to establish a security presence or potential military base in Somaliland, near the entrance to the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.

The move would give Israel a strategic position to monitor and potentially conduct operations against Houthi forces in Yemen.

The idea follows Israel’s recognition of Somaliland in December, opening the door for deeper security cooperation, intelligence sharing, and possibly a permanent foothold near one of the world’s most important maritime trade routes.

🇺🇸🛢 Trump says US will tap Strategic Petroleum Reserve — POLITICO

President Donald Trump said Wednesday the U.S. will release crude oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, its boldest attempt yet to bring down oil prices that have spiked since the U.S. launched its war against Iran.

“We’ll do that, and then we’ll fill it up,” Trump told Cincinnati news station Local 12 in an interview Wednesday afternoon. “I filled it up once, and I’ll fill it up again. But right now, we’ll reduce it a little bit, and that brings the prices down.”

Trump did not specify how much oil his administration would release or the timing of the move. It comes after the International Energy Agency announced earlier Wednesday it would coordinate the largest release of reserves in the body’s history, consisting of 400 million barrels of oil, from its 32 members, which include the U.S., Japan, Germany, the U.K. and France.

📝: Contrary to what Trump says, he did not fill up the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve, failing on yet another campaign promise of his. On top failing to fill it up after former president, Joe Biden, emptied it for the 2022 Midterms, Donald Trump attacked Iran seemingly oblivious to the consequences such an action would have on gas prices.

🇮🇷⚔️🇺🇸 White House correspondent for CBS News, Jennifer Jacobs wrote on X/Twitter:

Multiple US and state law enforcement and intel officials told CBS News there is no credible intelligence underpinning the bulletin distributed on the unverified possibility that Iran could retaliate for American attacks by launching drones at the West Coast. "This is not actionable,” a California-based federal law enforcement official told CBS.

“All this means is we got this information and we want to get it out to law enforcement executives to make sure they’re up to speed on it,” another California law enforcement official said. “There is absolutely nothing more to it.”

The bulletin to local law enforcement by the FBI’s Los Angeles division stemmed from an apparent tip that surfaced **prior** to the Iranian conflict.
