The Pro-Iranian protests continue in Baghdad even as they are fired upon with tear gas, and reportedly live ammunition.

More rockets falling onto Jerusalem.

A multiple-warhead fragmentation missile was seen in the skies of the West Bank, followed by massive explosions in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

Across the defensive missiles that can stop Iranian threats, the U.S. currently produces roughly 1,800 to 2,000 interceptors annually. Of these, about 700 to 800 are high-end varieties specifically designed to intercept ballistic missiles (primarily the PAC-3 MSE and THAAD). Meanwhile, Iran maintains a stockpile of approximately 2,500 ballistic missiles, hundreds of cruise missiles, and tens of thousands of drones. Iran has restored its industrial capacity to produce up to 250 ballistic missiles (ranging from 100 to 300 depending on the source) and thousands of drones per month. Because standard defense doctrine requires firing 2 or more interceptors to guarantee a stop against a single ballistic missile, a combined launch of roughly 400 ballistic missiles and 600 drones/cruise missiles could theoretically deplete a full year’s worth of U.S. air defense production.

Via Geran231, not to be outdone, Russia is preparing a strike on Ukrainian logistics tonight:

"Two large swarms of Gerans crossed the border. Some of them went by sea. At night, there will be a retaliation against the pigs for a UAV attack on Crimea.

The Bears (Tupolevs) will be here soon too."

It's been somewhat quiet over the Ukrainian rear lately.

🌒@EastCalling

Yeah, that's definitely live ammunition being fired. Pro-Iranian protests continue in the green zone at the US Embassy in Baghdad.

A naval facility of the American occupation in Bahrain is burning due to Iranian strikes.

Kier Starmer: "We will also bring in experts from Ukraine to help the Gulf countries shoot down Iranian drones."

The Europeans are no better than the Americans.

Update: Violent explosions are heard at the British Air Force base "Akrotiri" in Cyprus.

Trump reveals a potential timeline for the war with Iran: "It's always been a 4 week process. We figured it will be 4 weeks or so. It's always been about a 4 week process, so - as strong as it is, it's a big country, it'll take 4 weeks - or less."

And what do you expect to happen in this 4 weeks?

🌒@EastCalling

British PM Keir Starmer has cleared the US military to begin utilizing British Naval and Air Bases. The UK military will also join defensive actions to assist the Gulf States with missile/drone interception.

Remember, this is the Europe that Ukraine so desperately wants to be a part of. A bunch of dickless lackeys of the American emperor.

Explosions have occurred in the area of the British Air Force base Akrotiri in Cyprus, near Limassol, reported the journalist of the Israeli "Channel 14" Gil Elbit Rosen.

A siren is wailing in the area, and aircraft have been alerted.

The video, it is claimed, was filmed at the scene of the incident.

Update: the video is not even of Akrotiri... Thanks Zvezda...
