Iranian operatives have been digging out underground missile bunkers and silos struck by American and Israeli bombs, returning them to operation hours after an attack, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) still retaining a significant amount of its cruise and ballistic missiles as well as mobile launchers, according to recent U.S. intelligence reports shared with The New York Times.

Multiple strikes tonight against military and infrastructure targets in the Western Iranian city of Abadan, located on Abadan Island in the delta of the Shatt al-Arab only miles from Iran’s border with Iraq.

Video footage published by Iranian state-run media which claims to show the targeting of a U.S. Air Force A-10C Thunderbolt ll earlier today over Southern Iran by a surface-to-air missile, with the A-10 later crashing in the Persian Gulf off the coast of Kuwait, while the pilot successfully ejected and was later rescued by U.S. Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR).

Statement today from Republican Sen. John Curtis of Utah, as several Republican lawmakers begin to break from President Trump over the ongoing and escalating Iran War:

“I stand by the President’s actions taken in defense of our national security interests in the Middle East. But we must be clear-eyed about history and the Constitution. While I support maintaining our readiness and replenishing stockpiles, I cannot support funding for further military operations without a formal Declaration of War from Congress.”

Reports of possible explosions in and around the Syrian capital of Damascus.

The F-15E Strike Eagle shot down earlier today over Southern Iran is believed to be based out of Royal Air Force (RAF) Lakenheath in the United Kingdom, a U.S. official told NBC News, appearing to confirm earlier reports that the F-15E was assigned to the U.S. Air Force’s 494th Fighter Squadron (494th FS).

An Iranian one-way drone attack last month on the U.S. Embassy in Saudi Arabia’s capital of Riyadh did more extensive damage than previously disclosed, penetrating a secure part of the embassy and heavily damaging three floors as well as a station for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), while sparking a blaze that raged for half a day, current and former American officials have told The New York Times.

The Iranian attack on the embassy, which occurred March 3rd when an Iranian drone evaded air defenses guarding Riyadh’s gated Diplomatic Quarter and slammed into the American compound. A minute later, a second drone flew into the hole made by the first one and also exploded, the officials said. More drones were intercepted that night a few hours later, one was thought to be targeting the residence of the highest-ranking U.S. diplomat in Saudi Arabia, located a few hundred feet from the U.S. Embassy.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump states that Iran only has only 48 hours remaining of his 10-day ultimatum to “MAKE A DEAL or OPEN UP THE HORMUZ STRAIT - before all Hell will reign down on them.”

The Ministry of Defence for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has published today's numbers for Iranian one-way attack drones and missiles fired at the country. Since yesterday, UAE air defenses have tracked and intercepted 23 ballistic missiles and 56 one-way attack drones launched by Iran.

According to the Iranian state-run Fars News Agency, citing a spokesman for a key unit of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), the country will soon unveil “new air defense systems on the battlefield” against Israel and the United States. This announcement comes only a day after Iran successfully downed a U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle and A-10C Thunderbolt ll over the south of the country, while damaging a number of other aircraft, including 2 HH-60W “Jolly Green II” Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) Helicopters involved in the search for the downed F-15E.
