АДЕКВАТ Z writes,

The main - and predictable - conclusion from the first, even incomplete, day of the new war: the American air defense system is systematically failing just like the Israeli one did in the summer. There have been countless shots of burning bases across the region since the morning, and even though the exact damage to each of them (not counting the one reliably hit by a third cousin of the "Hera" long-range detection radar) is still unclear, it's clear that such a number of high-precision strikes could not have gone unnoticed in principle. And this is in a situation where Iranian strikes are being carried out quite selectively, and the air defense's ammunition supply hasn't even started to run out significantly. And when it does, in the not-too-distant future, the unrestricted pounding of any targets of choice will begin. Precisely because the Iranians have more attacking ammunition, and however not exponentially more than the aggressor - anti-missile systems. Which, I'm sure, the agents of Donald on the shore were informed about by the generals, but he, in full accordance with the basic characteristics of his wealthy nature, decided to ignore it.

In America's best interests, Trump would have been wise to call off the adventure right now, declare an unprecedented victory in centuries, and pray to the golden calf (well, to whom else), that Iran would also stop. But since such a decision would almost certainly have led to a quick acquaintance with various unpleasant people for the lord of the galaxy, from the Senate commission to the special prosecutor, the likelihood of its adoption is very low. And he will continue, smashing his own head and that of the personnel delighting in the next waves of missiles.

Let him continue. Cementing for himself in history the very place he most deserves.

Military Chronicle:

Another landing in Dubai (UAE). It's hard to say what targets the Iranians are trying to hit there, but it's strange that it's landing in a densely populated area.

Statements from Hezbollah:

The US–Zionist threats aimed to subjugate Iran, force its surrender, and strip it of its natural and legitimate right to possess peaceful nuclear capabilities and develop defensive missile capacities like other countries in the world.

The new aggression, which constitutes a blatant violation of international law and the UN Charter, continues the arrogance and hubris practiced by the US administration and the Zionist entity.

The aggression is a desperate attempt to destabilize Iran, subjugate its people, and force them to accept projects of domination and occupation.

What is happening today confirms that the problem has never been the nuclear program, but rather the refusal to allow a strong, self-reliant state in the region that upholds its sovereignty.

Hezbollah on the US–Zionist aggression: They want weak, drained entities that are easy to control and dominate, paving the way to implement their colonial and occupation schemes.

Iran has proven over decades of sanctions, threats, and attacks that it is a strong, steadfast state resistant to surrender, backed by a proud people standing united to defend their dignity and sovereignty.

We declare our full solidarity with the Islamic Republic of Iran, both its leadership and its people.

We call on the countries and peoples of the region to stand against the aggressive plan, recognize its dangers, and understand that its dire consequences will affect everyone without exception if left unchallenged.

We are confident that the US and "Israeli" enemy will receive a heavy blow and will reap nothing but failure from their tyrannical and criminal aggression.
