— 🇮🇷/🇦🇪 NEW: Iran has expanded the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz to also include the UAE’s eastern ports of Khor Fakkan and Fujairah

Any ship departing from these ports and attempting to head into the Gulf of Oman will be targeted if they do not obtain permission from Iran.

‘Attention all vessels, attention all vessels. If you cross into the Strait of Hormuz without permission from the Islamic Republic of Iran, you will be targeted and destroyed’

❗️Two soldiers from an elite Golani brigade were injured near Zawtar during a raid in the area

Israeli forces withdrew the wounded and then bombed the area

Israeli forces might repush to capture this area. Zawtar is one of the most important checkpoints and the road to Nabatieh

Israeli forces did not enter Zawtar but reached some inhabited area

🇮🇷🇦🇪🇺🇸| Missile sirens/alerts were activated in the UAE (now cleared).

Possible speculation could be that Iran fired (a) missile(s) toward targets in the Persian Gulf which set of these alarms.

CENTCOM claimed that two US-flagged commercial vessels passed through Strait of Hormuz with US military cover. Although it’s hard to verify as their transponders were off.

Though there were several USAF activities above the Persian Gulf at that time.

IF the speculation is correct then Iran likely fired missiles/drones at the vessels near the area. According to Yonhap News Agency, a South Korean ship was attacked.

Pending more details from Iran.

The town of Zawtar al-Gharbiya witnessed a humanitarian disaster last Saturday, when a Syrian family was struck by an Israeli drone strike targeting a pickup truck carrying a Syrian man and his family of at least four members, while they were attempting to flee from the river area outside Zawtar.

Al Jadeed reported that “ambulance and relief teams are still being prevented from reaching the strike site by the Israeli army, while initial information indicates that all members of the family have been martyred and are still inside the pickup truck.”

—❗️🇦🇪/🇮🇷 BREAKING: The UAE says it is dealing with a ‘missile threat’ for the second time in two hours, details are unclear

Likely ship attacks

In defense of Lebanon and its people, and following precise monitoring of a composite force from the "israeli" enemy army that attempted to advance in the Khallat al-Raj area north of the town of Deir Seryan towards the town of Zoutar al-Sharqiyah at 12:30 PM on Monday, 04/05/2026, and upon its arrival within direct fire range of an advanced security point for the Islamic Resistance fighters, the fighters opened fire at the hostile force and engaged in fierce clashes with it from zero distance using light and medium weapons, achieving confirmed casualties in its ranks.
Immediately, the enemy rushed to provide fire cover to secure the withdrawal of the force and the casualties, and deployed a number of vehicles towards the clash area. The artillery units of the Resistance proceeded to target the evacuation force with artillery shells and appropriate rocket weaponry. The anti-aircraft machine guns belonging to the Air Defense unit of the Resistance also intervened to prevent the hostile helicopters from maneuvering and landing near the event area, forcing the enemy to withdraw the casualties by land towards "Misgav Am" settlement, where it evacuated them by air towards the Palestinian interior.

New Israeli attacks on Zawtar and Shqeef area

New Israeli attacks

Unlikely other Gulf states, UAE was the only one who fully embraced Israel and not only got Israeli aid but actively attacked Iran

UAE even backstabbed Saudi Arabia in the field of oil

However wow.. Iran starting to ensure it does not compromise

All prayers for them

Israel knows the war is resuming soon

🇮🇷🇦🇪🇺🇸| Iran’s IRGC announced:

🚫 No commercial vessels or oil tankers (without permission) have passed through the Strait of Hormuz in recent hours.

✅ American officials are lying. Naval movements contrary to the announced principles of the IRGC Navy will face serious risks, and violating vessels will be stopped with force.
