⚠️ ISRAELI AIR FORCE SIGNALS HIGH READINESS AMID IRAN TENSIONS AS UNUSUAL UAV ACTIVITY REPORTED OVER CENTRAL ISRAEL
🕑 January 22, 2026 | 4:00 PM
🛡️ Unusual UAV activity over central Israel: Low-flying “Sky Rider”–type UAVs were observed circling for an extended period over Beit Shemesh and surrounding areas. The prolonged circling was described as unusual.
⚠️ IAF chief, Air force prepared for surprises and deep operations: Israeli Air Force chief Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar said the IAF is “prepared, alert, and ready” amid the ongoing tensions with Iran, in remarks provided by the IDF from a visit to an Iron Dome battery yesterday.
“At all times, we are required to be prepared for surprises. Our responsibility is to reduce, as much as possible, the damage to the Israeli home front. We will do everything to protect, even knowing that it is impossible to guarantee zero harm,” Bar said.
“Alongside strong defense, the air force maintains a lethal offensive arm capable of operating deep within enemy territory. The entire air force is prepared, alert, and ready,” he added.
Bar said the IAF has learned and drawn lessons from the 12-day war with Iran in June and noted, “we are arriving stronger.”

⚠️ IDF CHIEF OF STAFF REVIEWS COUNTERTERROR OPERATIONS IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA, WARNS AGAINST VIGILANTISM, FOILS DRONE GUN SMUGGLING, AND CALLS FOR EXPANDED HAREDI ENLISTMENT
🕑 January 22, 2026 | 7:00 PM
❌ Counterterror operations and command assessment in southern Hebron: IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir conducted a situational assessment and regional tour this week in the Judea Regional Brigade as part of an ongoing counterterrorism operation in the southern Hebron area. The visit included the Tomb of the Patriarchs and was attended by senior commanders from Central Command, the Operations Directorate, the Civil Administration, the Judea and Samaria Division, the Border Police, and regional brigade leadership. Zamir said the operation is part of a broader series of proactive counterterror efforts across Judea and Samaria aimed at dismantling terrorist infrastructure and strengthening the defense of nearby communities, stressing the need for sustained, preemptive activity and high readiness for eruptive attacks that may occur without warning.
Addressing the Tomb of the Patriarchs, Zamir highlighted its religious importance and the IDF’s responsibility to protect residents and holy sites, noting that familiarity with Jewish heritage and history strengthens resilience and identity within the IDF. He emphasized that only the IDF and authorized security forces are permitted to use force in the sector, warning that vigilantism by groups or individuals is unacceptable and harmful to communities, even as the IDF continues uncompromising action against terrorism. He concluded by praising IDF troops and security forces operating in the area for maintaining security during ongoing operations.
🎯 Drone-based weapons smuggling from Jordan intercepted: An attempt to smuggle ten pistols into Israel from Jordan using a drone last night was foiled, according to the military. The IDF said the drone was detected crossing the border by soldiers monitoring surveillance cameras, after which troops from the Yoav Regional Brigade downed the device.
The drone was found carrying ten handguns, which were transferred to police custody. A military source said the same drone had been used in an earlier smuggling attempt on Wednesday that was not intercepted.
🪖 Chief of Staff urges expanded Haredi enlistment amid legislative debate: As the government advances legislation to renew exemptions from military service for ultra-Orthodox men, Zamir told Haredi troops that expanding their enlistment is “an essential operational necessity to ensure our readiness for the challenges of the future.” Speaking to soldiers of the Nevatim Airbase ground defense unit composed of ultra-Orthodox men, he said the scope of current missions is broad and demanding, requiring the IDF to expand its ranks. He added that extending mandatory service for men back to 36 months is “only one component” in easing the burden on reserve servicemembers.
“At the same time, the enlistment of the Haredi public is an operational necessity and a moral obligation of us commanders toward all those who serve,” Zamir said, calling for an equal distribution of the burden across society. He said the IDF is preparing a General Staff order to formalize service arrangements that allow ultra-Orthodox troops to maintain a Haredi way of life without harming the character of service of others, adding, “You are proof that it is possible to fully preserve a Haredi way of life while performing meaningful military service.”

❌ IDF ELIMINATES TEN HEZBOLLAH OPERATIVES EMBEDDED IN CIVILIAN AREAS ACROSS SOUTHERN LEBANON
🕑 January 22, 2026 | 7:30 PM
❌ Hezbollah’s civilian-embedded operating method exposed in southern Lebanon: IDF troops eliminated ten terrorists from nine different areas in southern Lebanon over the past several months. The operation was led by the 91st Division.
The eliminated operatives were described as Hezbollah’s executive arm across multiple areas in southern Lebanon. They deliberately operated from within civilian frameworks tied to rebuilding, education, welfare, and infrastructure, which the IDF says were exploited to advance terrorist activity.
According to the IDF, the operatives took control of civilian areas and private property, facilitated the transfer of weapons and operatives, and embedded terrorist infrastructure within the civilian population. The IDF said this reflected planned and cynical exploitation of local residents to advance Hezbollah’s objectives.
The IDF stated that this activity constitutes a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon.

🚨 U.S. AND ALLIED FORCES SIGNAL READINESS AROUND IRAN AS ISRAEL MAINTAINS HOME FRONT STATUS AND REGIONAL DEPLOYMENTS EXPAND
🕑 January 23, 2026 | 7:30 AM
‼️ U.S. military posture toward Iran
President Trump posted on Truth Social that he has not forgotten his pledge that “help is on the way.” In a segment aired by Hannity, the president’s comments on Air Force One were replayed, describing additional U.S. military assets moving to the Middle East.
Trump said the U.S. is sending a massive naval armada, including an aircraft carrier, toward Iran as a precaution. He added that he hopes it won’t be necessary to use it, but said, “we’ll have to see what happens.”
🚨 Assessments of possible U.S. action: According to Israeli Channel 12, the United States is expected to complete regional preparations in the coming days for a possible attack against Iran. Reuters reported that the U.S. military has deployed more forces to the Middle East than during the First and Second Gulf Wars and the Iraq War.
Israeli assessments indicate that once deployments are complete, any potential strike would depend on decision and timing, with Israel not yet knowing whether the American president has already made a decision to attack. Iranian officials are issuing threats while also attempting to initiate negotiations to gain time.
🛡️ Israeli readiness and public guidance: The IDF is preparing for more severe scenarios in which Iran could respond if and when the United States decides to attack. The Air Force commander visited an air defense system and said: “We learned and drew lessons from Operation Kalavy, and we are coming out stronger.”
A security source told N12: “We are aware. There is no change in the Home Front Command’s instructions. If there is a change, we will know how to update the public in real time.”
🔹 UK force deployment: Britain announced the deployment of fast air assets to the region, confirming that Typhoon fighter jets have been deployed to Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar amid heightened Middle East alertness.
🇮🇷 Iran internal situation and connectivity: Prince Reza Pahlavi told Fox News that the Islamic Republic is at war with the Iranian people and said it is expected that at least 20,000 protesters have been killed. He said: “The government has massacred the people and the country has fallen into total darkness. This government, under the direct order of Khamenei, is applying even more violence, including shooting people in hospitals.”
🛜 Iran remains in a national internet blackout in its third week at hour 348, with only a slight rise in overall connectivity and tunneled users. There are indications of an attempt to generate false traffic and manufacture narratives of a wider restoration.
🥷 Suspected intelligence leak investigation: Kann News reported that Israel’s security establishment is examining suspicion that classified information on Iran was leaked and used for betting on Polymarket. The user is believed to be an insider with access to sensitive information, correctly predicting multiple Israel-related strikes in June 2025 and earning over $150,000.

⚠️ U.S. FORCES POSITION NAVAL AND AIR POWER WITHIN STRIKE RANGE OF IRAN AS ISRAEL EXTENDS RESERVE CALL-UP AND IRAN CARRIES OUT REPORTED PROTEST EXECUTION
🕑 January 23, 2026 | 1:00 PM
‼️ U.S. naval and air posture near Iran: The USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group has moved into the eastern Arabian Sea and is preparing to enter the Gulf of Oman, placing U.S. naval airpower within direct strike range of Iran. Carrier-based F-35C Lightning II and F/A-18E/F Super Hornet aircraft, supported by aerial refueling, are assessed as able to reach deep into Iranian territory, including nuclear and missile-related sites.
The carrier is assessed to be operating roughly 600–1,600 miles from Tehran. The broader U.S. naval posture under U.S. Central Command and European Command includes Tomahawk-capable destroyers USS Mitscher, McFaul, Oscar Austin, Roosevelt, Bulkeley, and Paul Ignatius, and submarines USS South Dakota and USS Georgia, with combined Tomahawk capacity estimated at 358 missiles, rising to approximately 454 when including the Abraham Lincoln strike group.
The carrier group includes USS Abraham Lincoln with escort destroyers USS Frank E. Petersen, USS Spruance, and USS Michael Murphy, and operates nine embarked squadrons. Additional U.S. naval forces in the region include USS Mount Whitney, USS Lewis B. Puller, USS Tulsa, USS Canberra, USS Santa Barbara, multiple logistics vessels, and deployed U.S. Coast Guard cutters supporting command-and-control, expeditionary operations, sustained presence, and maritime security.
On the airpower front, the U.S. has two F-35 squadrons, three F-15E squadrons, one F-16 squadron, and one A-10 squadron positioned on the ground in the region. These are supported by rotational intelligence, refueling, and logistics assets including P-8A Poseidon, MQ-4C Triton, C-17A Globemaster, KC-135, KC-46A, and KC-130J, enabling persistent surveillance and sustained operations.
Separately, a U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle departed RAF Lakenheath today as part of ongoing CORONET movements, supported by a KC-135 Stratotanker. The sortie is assessed as part of continued U.S. Air Force repositioning tied to Middle East operational readiness.
🛡️ Israel extends reserve call-up: The Israeli government is expected to approve the call-up of 280,000 reserve forces through March 2026. The decision is tied to IDF expectations that large-scale troop deployments on multiple fronts will continue.
⚠️ President Trump statement: President Trump returned to the United States and to the White House after stepping off Air Force One. He posted tonight again that "help is on the way for the people of Iran". The last time he did that, nearly 20,000 protesters were still alive…
❗️ Reported execution in Iran: Iran is reported to have carried out what is likely its first execution of a protestor. The BBC reports Ali Rahbar, a sports coach from Mashhad, was executed yesterday morning, after he was arrested 10 days ago.
🔹 Regional diplomacy reports: The Wall Street Journal reports the U.S. is considering a full withdrawal of its forces from Syria. Israel’s public broadcaster reports that, as with Syria, there are pressures on Lebanon to enter into direct negotiations with Israel over a political and security agreement.

🚨 SHABBAT EMERGENCY ALERT GUIDANCE FOR LONG-RANGE MISSILE THREATS TO ISRAEL
🕑 January 23, 2026 | 3:00 PM
🪖 IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin said there are no changes to the Home Front Command’s instructions for the Israeli public, despite ongoing tensions with Iran.
“Ahead of the Sabbath, I want to say to all citizens of Israel: the IDF is optimally prepared, both defensively and offensively. It is important to emphasize that there is no change to the Home Front Command’s instructions. We will ensure to update you if there is any change,” he said.
🛡️ Home Front Command status: Home Front Command instructions remain unchanged at this time as noted. In long-range missile scenarios originating from Yemen or Iran, missiles travel roughly 1,600–2,000 kilometers, and early alerts may be issued several minutes before impact, ahead of the standard red alert siren.
⏱️ Warning time differences: Unlike short-range rocket fire from Gaza or Lebanon, where red alerts typically provide about 15 seconds to 1.5 minutes to reach shelter, long-range missile threats involve earlier notification through alert systems before the usual siren. This creates a clear pikuach nefesh (life-saving) requirement to receive alerts on Shabbat.
📻 Shabbat-approved silent broadcasts: Radio and TV stations switch to silent broadcast mode on Shabbat, activating only for emergency alerts and official instructions, including guidance such as whether to remain indoors. If you do not have a radio or TV, these broadcasts can also be accessed via live streams on a phone or computer. It is strongly recommended to use both a silent radio or TV source and an alert app or website.
📡 Silent radio options:
- Kol Chai: 92.8 / 93 / 102.5 FM
- Kol Barama: 92.1 / 104.3 / 105.7 / 107.6 FM
- Galei Israel: 89.3 / 94 / 106.5 FM
All stations provide live online streams.
📺 Silent TV option: Channel 14 provides silent emergency broadcasts, with a live stream available and Android and iPhone apps. Ad blockers must be disabled for alerts to function properly. There is no officially designated silent English-language broadcast channel.
📱 Home Front Command app: Shabbat and Holiday Mode: The Home Front Command app includes a dedicated “Shabbat and Holiday Mode,” which should be activated before Shabbat. When enabled, the screen remains active so alerts and official instructions can be viewed without touching the device. This allows users to see alert zones, time to reach a protected space, and updated guidance according to location.
To activate: Open the Home Front Command app → Settings → Alert Modes → Turn on “Shabbat and Holiday Mode.”
🔋 Preparation guidance: Fully charge your phone before Shabbat and ensure all alert methods, including the Home Front Command app and silent broadcasts, are set up and tested in advance.
⚠️ Bottom line: Due to immediate risk to life, monitoring alerts on Shabbat is permitted and required. Prepare in advance and stay safe.
📌 Israel Realtime does not post news updates during the holy Shabbat, except in true emergencies where life-saving information must be shared. There will be no non-emergency posts from sundown Friday until nightfall Saturday.
Wishing all our subscribers a peaceful, restorative, and restful Shabbat. Shabbat Shalom 🙏

🛡️ U.S.–IRAN SIGNAL READINESS AS WASHINGTON MEETS NETANYAHU, IRAN WARNS OF ALL-OUT RESPONSE, AND U.S. EXPANDS PATRIOT/THAAD DEPLOYMENTS AND USAF TANKER OPERATIONS AMID DELAYED ACTION
🛡️ Senior U.S. officials to meet Netanyahu tonight: Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff are scheduled to meet Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at 19:30 Israel time, less than an hour from now.
🇺🇸 CENTCOM commander in Israel amid regional coordination: CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper is currently in Israel and is expected to meet with Senator Joni Ernst, who is visiting Israel as part of a congressional delegation and touring the CMCC overseeing Gaza.
⚠️ Iran issues warnings amid rising military posture: Iran’s delegation to the UN said: “Our army is prepared for the worst-case scenarios, and we hope that the military buildup will not lead to a real confrontation. The collapse of the state will lead to a regional collapse, and that is exactly what Israel wants.” A senior Iranian official told Reuters Iran will treat any attack “as an all-out war against us” and “respond in the hardest way possible to settle this,” adding that “everything is on high alert” and warning: “If the Americans violate Iran's sovereignty and territorial integrity, we will respond.”
⚠️ IRGC Navy claims control of the Strait of Hormuz and links it to negotiation pressure: Akbarzadeh, Deputy Commander of the IRGC Navy, said Iran currently has full “smart” control over the Strait of Hormuz and that there is no longer any need to lay mines using traditional methods. He also said the enemy lacks the courage to carry out a military attack against Iran, and framed the measures as a message to come to the negotiating table on Iran’s stated preconditions.
⛰️ Reports claim Iranian Supreme Leader has gone into hiding: The Times of Israel reported claims that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei has moved to an underground bunker as a U.S. carrier strike force moves closer to the region.
🛡️ Military action against Iran has been delayed amid regional concerns over air defense readiness: Officials in the Middle East say Gulf state pressure contributed to the delay, while Israel and Gulf states feared existing air defense systems were inadequate to stop an Iranian counterattack. Those concerns are now being addressed through the deployment of Patriot and THAAD systems at Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar and other locations in the region.
🛩️ U.S. strategic airlift and aerial refueling activity continues across multiple theaters, with several C-17 transport aircraft tracked overnight on routes from the continental United States to Europe. The pattern indicates sustained personnel and equipment repositioning rather than a single surge event. At Al-Udeid Air Base, four KC-135 aerial refueling tankers departed, with initial routing suggesting a split: two moving toward Europe and two possibly repositioning toward the eastern Mediterranean, pending confirmation.
Updated flight paths indicate that two aircraft previously assessed as Chania-bound may instead be heading to Morón Air Base in Spain, where four KC-135s are already present. Morón has previously served as a refueling staging area for U.S. B-2 bomber operations, including Operation Midnight Hammer. At the same time, two additional tankers are tracked southbound toward Al-Udeid, likely rotating in to replace assets shifting north, while additional C-17 cargo aircraft are reported inbound from the U.S. to Europe across the Atlantic.
Separately, the U.S. Air Force has deployed four KC-46 Pegasus tankers on a CORONET East tasking, transiting from McGuire AFB (New Jersey) to Homestead ARB (Florida). The southern routing suggests onward movement via Lajes (Azores) or Morón rather than the UK before proceeding eastward toward the Middle East. This update specifically reflects GOLD-callsign tanker activity, with broader USAF movement details expected later.
🧠 No intelligence indicating an imminent strike on Iran: At this stage, there is no intelligence pointing to signs of an imminent strike against Iran in the coming days.

⚠️ ISRAEL AND U.S. MILITARY LEADERS COORDINATE ON IRAN AS TEHRAN SIGNALS MISSILE READINESS, INTERNAL REPRESSION INTENSIFIES
🕑 January 24, 2026 | 8:00 PM
🪖 IDF AND U.S. MILITARY COORDINATION AMID HEIGHTENED ALERT: IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir met this evening with U.S. Central Command commander Adm. Brad Cooper, who arrived in Israel overnight.
Intelligence Directorate chief Maj. Gen. Shlomi Binder and Operations Directorate chief Maj. Gen. Itzik Cohen also participated. The meeting comes as the IDF remains on high alert and has carried out preparations in recent weeks following President Trump’s threats of military action against Iran, against the backdrop of the regime’s killing of protesters.
🚨 IRANIAN PROTESTS, CASUALTIES, AND CHEMICAL WEAPONS CLAIMS: Following a request by exiled Prince Reza Pahlavi and based on published calls, Iranians are set to hold gatherings and marches on Saturday and Sunday across multiple countries, including Australia, Canada, Europe, and the United States.
Based on verification of images, reports, and comparative investigative analysis by the International Centre for Human Rights, approximately 43,000 people have been killed, 350,000 injured, and 20,000 arrested and awaiting possible execution.
“Taken together, ICHR believes that this body of evidence, methods, and data presents a clear picture of a systematic and organized campaign of repression and mass killing; one that may silence the streets in the short term, but will not resolve the underlying crisis. Silence by the international community in the face of such violent repression and crimes against humanity will only enable the repetition and escalation of these atrocities.”
From a very credible international source, reports that chemical weapons have been used against people on the streets in Iran are described as true, with multiple verified uses.
⚠️ IRAN SIGNALS MISSILE AND DEFENSE POSTURE: An Iranian Ministry of Defense spokesperson said Iran’s missile capabilities have increased in both quantity and quality since the 12-day war and that defensive capabilities have also improved based on lessons learned.
The spokesperson also said the enemy’s hesitation in rhetoric and threats demonstrates Iran’s defensive and missile superiority and added that Iran is refraining from publicly disclosing expansions of missile capabilities to preserve surprise.
⚔️ IRANIAN ARMED FORCES DEEPEN INTERNAL COORDINATION: The commanders of the Iranian Army Ground Forces and the IRGC Ground Forces signed a memorandum of understanding to enhance cooperation between the two forces.
Iranian Army Ground Forces commander Ali Jahanshahi said, “We will defend Iran to the last drop of blood. The unity of the armed forces is the key to defeating the enemy in times of crisis. The armed forces must act as a single body so that the enemy feels powerless in facing them.”
IRGC Ground Forces commander Mohammad Karami said, “Thanks to the unity of the armed forces, the enemy’s plans have been thwarted. The existing synergy among Iran’s armed forces is a valuable asset.”
❗️ IRGC COMMANDERS RESPOND TO PRESIDENT TRUMP’S THREATS: On the occasion of Guard Corps Appreciation Day, a gathering of senior IRGC command staff, past and present, was held yesterday. Participants included Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, a former IRGC Air Force commander, and Ali Shamkhani, an adviser to Khamenei and his representative on the Defense Council, who previously commanded the naval forces.
When asked how they view President Trump’s threats, Qalibaf replied: “You chose the wrong path—and you are continuing down it.” Majid Mousavi, commander of the IRGC Air Force, added: “He talks a lot. He should know for certain that our response will be delivered on the battlefield.”

❗️HAMAS REJECTS DISARMAMENT AS ISRAEL PREPARES FOR RENEWED GAZA FIGHTING, IDF ELIMINATES THREAT NEAR TROOPS, AND COUNTERTERROR OPERATIONS AND DIPLOMATIC MOVES EXPAND ACROSS MULTIPLE ARENAS
🕑 January 24, 2026 | 9:30 PM
❗️ Hamas rejects disarmament: Hamas stated it will not dismantle its weapons “as long as the occupation exists.” In Hamas’s charter, “occupation” refers to the existence of Israel itself, not Gaza, Judea, or Samaria, framing all Israeli communities as illegal and justifying continued conflict as long as Israel exists.
⚔ Israel advances preparations for renewed fighting in Gaza: Southern Command has presented a plan to disarm Hamas and demilitarize the Gaza Strip to commanders in recent days. Forces on the ground have begun an advanced battle-preparation procedure as defined by Southern Command.
🎯 IAF eliminates immediate threat to IDF troops in northern Gaza: IDF troops identified several terrorists who crossed the Yellow Line, planted an explosive device, and approached the forces, posing an immediate threat. The Israeli Air Force struck and eliminated the terrorists to remove the danger.
❗️ Israel rejects Pakistan role in Gaza transition framework: Israel clarified it will not allow Pakistan to play any role in a Gaza transition force, following Islamabad’s participation in the “Board of Peace” charter under President Donald Trump. Economy Minister Nir Barkat said, “Any country that supported terror is not welcome...and that includes Pakistan.”
▪️ President Trump withdraws Canada invitation to Board of Peace: “Dear Prime Minister Carney: Please let this Letter serve to represent that the Board of Peace is withdrawing its invitation to you regarding Canada’s joining, what will be, the most prestigious Board of Leaders ever assembled, at any time. Thank you for your attention to this matter,” President Trump wrote.
❗️ France votes to move Muslim Brotherhood toward EU terror designation: France’s National Assembly voted in favor of registering the Muslim Brotherhood on the European Union’s list of terrorist organizations.
❗️ U.S. pressures Bolivia over alleged Iranian spies and terror designations: The Trump administration is pressuring Bolivia’s new right-wing government to expel alleged Iranian spies and to designate the IRGC, Hezbollah, and Hamas as terrorist organizations.
🪖 IDF deploys forces after gunfire report in Binyamin Brigade sector: IDF forces were deployed to the Talmon area after reports of gunfire from the direction of Ein Kinya. No casualties were reported, searches are ongoing, roadblocks were set up on nearby routes, and a closure was imposed on Ramallah.
❌ Counterterrorism operation concludes in Hebron: IDF forces, the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet), Israel Border Police, and Israel Police completed an operation in the Jabal Johar area. Security forces searched approximately 350 structures, apprehended 14 wanted individuals involved in terrorist activity and weapons possession, and confiscated eight weapons including M4s, M16s, and handguns, along with dozens of knives and additional weapons.

⚠️ U.S. WEIGHS POTENTIAL STRIKES ON IRAN AS CENTCOM MEETS IDF, U.S. NAVAL AND AIR ASSETS POSITION IN REGION, AND AIRLINES ADJUST ISRAEL FLIGHTS
🕑 January 24, 2026 | 10:00 PM
♟️ U.S.-ISRAEL MILITARY COORDINATION: Israel assesses the United States may move forward with strikes against Iran, describing the coming days as a key period. The commander of U.S. Central Command, Admiral Brad Cooper, met with IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir and senior IDF officials, and the American message conveyed was that President Trump has not yet made a final decision.
🛫 CIVIL AVIATION UPDATE: Italian airline ITA announced the cancellation of night flights to Israel through January 27.
🛡️ REGIONAL SIGNALS AND CLAIMS: At this hour, no confirmed imminent strikes against Iran have been reported, and regional air traffic is operating normally. Additional cargo aircraft remain scheduled to arrive in the Middle East overnight.
🗣️ Some Jordanian social media accounts are claiming developments could occur within hours, but these reports remain unverified.
♟️ U.S. FORCE POSTURE IN THE REGION: U.S. naval forces reported to be within striking distance of Iran are described as having reached the Arabian Sea and Persian Gulf area. The deployment is centered on the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier strike group, including guided-missile destroyers and carrier-based aircraft such as F-35s. These forces reinforce existing U.S. assets in the region, including two U.S. Navy destroyers, three littoral combat ships recently deployed to Bahrain, and additional air assets such as B-52 bombers and fighter aircraft operating from bases in Qatar and Jordan.
🗣 OFFICIAL STATEMENTS: U.S. Vice President Vance said: “We just want to make sure that we have options. We have a lot of forces in the region. We have people who could be endangered. I think Trump just wanted to make sure that if, God forbid, the Iranians did something very stupid, that we had the resources necessary to respond”.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said: “There are signs that Israel is seeking to attack Iran”.
❗️ IRAN-RELATED DEVELOPMENTS: Iranian anti-regime channels reported GPS disruptions in Tehran. According to information received by Iran International, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has moved into a fortified underground shelter in the capital after senior military and security officials assessed an increased risk of a potential U.S. attack. The report also states that Masoud Khamenei, the Supreme Leader’s third son, has assumed day-to-day management of the leader’s office and is serving as the primary channel for communication with Iran’s executive branches.

🕑 January 24, 2026 | 10:30 PM
‼️ Israeli intelligence evidence presented to Washington: Israel HaYom reports that Israeli intelligence acquired tangible evidence that the Iranian regime had been “quietly” executing peaceful, unarmed protesters and presented it to the United States. The intelligence reportedly includes documentation of live fire against demonstrators and executions carried out after arrests, using various methods.
U.S. officials are described as viewing the material as a “smoking gun” showing Iran continued mass executions of protesters despite assurances to Washington that such executions had stopped. The report says this has sharpened internal U.S. debates, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth favoring a tougher posture, while Special Envoy Steve Witkoff is reported to be pushing for diplomatic restraint to avoid regional escalation.
The article notes deepening U.S.–Israel security coordination through expanded intelligence sharing, joint operational planning, and heightened regional military preparedness, including air defense and logistical cooperation. It highlights a recent visit to Israel by CENTCOM commander Admiral Brad Cooper, underscoring continued alignment as Washington weighs its next steps regarding Tehran.

🛡️ U.S.–ISRAEL DEFENSE COORDINATION DEEPENS AS REGIONAL INTERCEPTIONS PREPARE, STRATEGIC AIRLIFTS SURGE, AND IRAN FACES INTERNAL REPRESSION
🕑 January 25, 2026 | 9:00 AM
🇮🇱🇺🇸 CENTCOM COMMANDER VISITS ISRAEL: CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper visited Israel on Saturday as the guest of IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir. The visit included an extended one-on-one meeting between the two commanders, followed by a broader discussion with additional senior military leaders, and was described as another step in strengthening defense cooperation, enhancing joint coordination, and reinforcing the close strategic relationship between the IDF and the U.S. military.
U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu also met last night.
🛡️ REGIONAL PREPARATIONS FOR POTENTIAL INTERCEPTIONS: Israel Hayom reports that Britain, the United Arab Emirates, and Jordan are preparing to help intercept missiles and drones launched from Iran toward Israel and other regional targets. The report links the preparations to a potential response following an American attack.
🛩️ INCREASED STRATEGIC AIRLIFT ACTIVITY: According to tracking analysts, 47 C-17 cargo aircraft have arrived in the CENTCOM region over the past several days.
Separate reports from Arab media and online sources claim China carried out a large-scale airlift to Iran, with around 16 Chinese military cargo aircraft landing in Tehran within a 56-hour span and delivering various types of military gear.
🚨 REPORTS OF MASS CASUALTIES AND DETENTION PRACTICES IN IRAN: A message from a contact inside Iran claims the Islamic Republic is refusing to hand over bodies of the fallen to their families, with the stated goal of holding them until a U.S. military strike and then framing the deaths as civilian casualties caused by the U.S. to stir outrage and pressure President Trump.
Two senior officials from Iran’s Ministry of Health told TIME that as many as 30,000 people may have been killed in the streets of Iran on January 8 and 9 alone, overwhelming the state’s capacity to handle the dead, exhausting body bag supplies, and leading to the use of eighteen-wheel semi-trailers in place of ambulances.
Additional reports from Iran claim prisons are overcrowded and that authorities have started releasing detainees, with allegations that some are injected with high levels of potassium or given substances mixed into food before release, followed by deaths days later. Families are reportedly told the deaths were “suicide.”
🛢️ISRAELI ENERGY IMPORTS REACH THREE-YEAR HIGH: Israel’s imports of Azerbaijani oil via Turkey’s Ceyhan port reached a three-year high in 2025, rising 31% year-on-year to 94,000 barrels per day. The increase was described as underscoring Israel’s ability to secure supplies despite political hostility from some governments over the Gaza war.

🎯 IDF COMPLETES DISMANTLING OF 4-KILOMETER HAMAS TUNNEL IN SOUTHERN GAZA; ISRAELI STRIKES HIT HEZBOLLAH TARGETS IN SOUTHERN LEBANON
🕑 January 25, 2026 | 1:30 PM
❌ Southern Gaza Strip: IDF troops continued operational activity in the southern Gaza Strip, east of the Yellow Line. Following an exchange of fire last week in which six terrorists were eliminated, forces conducted searches and located weapons and equipment, including an explosive device, magazines, and an instructional manual for preparing explosives. Troops also located five inactive rocket launchers and additional weapons.
In cooperation with the Yahalom unit, forces completed the dismantling of an underground tunnel route that had been underway for about a year. The tunnel, approximately four kilometers long, contained several underground rooms and weapons.
💥 IDF STRIKES IN SOUTHERN LEBANON AND THE BEQAA VALLEY: Israeli strikes targeted Hezbollah sites in southern Lebanon and the Beqaa Valley. Lebanese media reported injuries following an Israeli airstrike on the town of Khirbet Selm in southern Lebanon.
The IDF confirmed that a short while ago it struck a structure in the Bir al-Sansal area in southern Lebanon from which Hezbollah terrorists were operating. The military said the site was identified as a Hezbollah weapons manufacturing location, and that additional strikes in the Beqaa Valley targeted Hezbollah military infrastructure sites.
⚠️ NORTHERN ISRAEL HOME FRONT NOTICE: The Upper Galilee Regional Council informed residents that explosions may be heard in the coming hours due to ongoing IDF airstrikes in Lebanon.

🛡️ IRAN TIGHTENS LOW-ALTITUDE AIRSPACE AS U.S. AND ALLIES REINFORCE REGIONAL AIR DEFENSE AND IDF CENTRAL COMMAND CONDUCTS EXTREME-SCENARIO READINESS DRILL
🕑 January 25, 2026 | 4:30 PM
🛩️ U.S. REGIONAL MILITARY POSTURE: U.S. military activity in the region indicates a shift toward reinforcing air and missile defense systems across key Middle Eastern partners, particularly Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and the UAE. Aircraft movements and logistics patterns suggest a sustained effort to strengthen defensive coverage rather than prepare ground or offensive operations.
In recent days, U.S. flights into Jordan were notably active but have since declined, indicating a specific operational phase there may have concluded. The reduction does not signal disengagement, but a reallocation of assets toward broader regional defense priorities. Overall, the posture points to a defensive and precautionary focus aimed at protecting allies and critical infrastructure against missile and drone threats linked to Iran and its proxy network, with no clear indicators of imminent offensive action at this stage.
🤝 LOGISTICAL AND INTELLIGENCE SUPPORT: The UK, the UAE, and Jordan will provide all logistical and intelligence support required by the U.S. Army in the event of an attack on Iran.
🪖 IDF CENTRAL COMMAND READINESS DRILL: The IDF’s Central Command launched a pre-planned exercise this morning aimed at improving readiness for “extreme scenarios,” the military says. The command is responsible for Judea and Samaria and most of the border with Jordan.
The IDF says the drill is involving several divisions and the Civil Administration, a branch of the Defense Ministry’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT). The military adds that the exercise is also examining “the optimal execution of operational processes from the command level up to the General Staff.”
⛔ Aviation restrictions: Iran has issued a new NOTAM suspending all visual flight rules (VFR) and general aviation flights nationwide for three months, in effect through late April. The measure covers civilian, non-commercial aviation, including recreational and private flights that typically operate at low altitude.
Normal scheduled commercial air traffic is not affected at this stage. Exceptions are limited to flights operating within airport traffic zones, as well as medical, search and rescue, state, military, and National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) helicopter operations, all requiring prior coordination with air traffic authorities.
The restriction significantly reduces civilian aviation activity across the country and tightens low-altitude airspace control nationwide for the duration of the suspension.

🛡️ ISRAEL BRIEFS OPPOSITION AS JERUSALEM URGES U.S. STRIKES ON IRAN’S MISSILE AND REGIME TARGETS, AMID ALLIED SPLITS, HOUTHI SHIPPING THREATS, AND REPORTS OF A DEADLY IRANIAN CRACKDOWN WITH PROLONGED INTERNET BLACKOUT
🕑 January 25, 2026 | 5:00 PM
🏛️ ISRAELI POLITICAL COORDINATION: Amid escalating tensions with Iran, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and opposition leader Yair Lapid will meet on Tuesday for a security briefing after about a month and a half.
📡 ISRAELI REQUESTS AND U.S. STRIKE ASSESSMENTS: Jerusalem has asked the United States to target governmental and military sites of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Channel 13 reports. The report adds that this week is seen as “key” as Israeli assessments suggest the U.S. may attack Iran.
According to Channel 13, Israeli representatives conveyed to the U.S. that any strike should include attacks on Iran’s ground-to-ground missile systems in addition to government targets.
🧩 REPORTED DIVISIONS AMONG U.S. AND REGIONAL ACTORS: Israeli media report that senior figures within the U.S. administration and several allied countries are divided over the possibility of a U.S. military strike on Iran. Support for a potential attack is attributed to U.S. Vice President JD Vance, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, as well as the governments of the United Kingdom, Israel, and the United Arab Emirates.
Reported opposition includes U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, alongside Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. The reporting highlights a split both within U.S. political circles and across the Middle East regarding the use of direct military force against Iran.
⚠️ HOUTHIS THREATEN SHIPPING: A Houthi spokesperson in Yemen issued a threat stating that if the U.S. strikes Iran, all American cargo ships will be considered legitimate targets.
🚨 IRAN INTERNAL REPORTING: As per Israeli sources, it is becoming clear that the night of January 8 in the streets of Iran was the deadliest in the history of the Islamic Republic and one of the deadliest in the world in recent decades. According to these sources, the regime murdered thousands, and quite possibly tens of thousands, that night, describing a massacre on an almost unimaginable scale.
⚠️ Three weeks ago, Donald Trump issued a public warning regarding Iran’s treatment of peaceful protesters.
“If Iran shots and violently kills peaceful protesters, which is their custom, the United States of America will come to their rescue. We are locked and loaded and ready to go. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP”
It has since been reported that over 40,000 protesters were shot and killed.
🛜 Iran has now been without internet for over 400 hours.
