โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡พ๐Ÿ‡ช The Yemenis have attacked the Bulk Carrier "MAGIC SEAS", a Greek-registered ship.

UKMTO confirms that it's sinking and the crew has abandoned the vessel, after it was hit by unknown projectiles, likely USVs & RPGs.

It was coming from China => Singapore => unknown destination. Waiting for an official statement, but the ship may be linked to Israel.

๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ›ฐ USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) has still not approached the Gulf of Oman, nothing visible on today's Sentinel-2 satellite imagery.

(Also i doubt it will ever get closer to Iran, the previous reported location is close enough to attack)

Photo 2 is latest reported location, January 30th

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ทโœˆ๏ธ๐Ÿ•ตโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ This unidentified Iranian Military Aircraft/UAV is currently patrolling at the only entrance from the Arabian Sea to the Persian Gulf.

A few hundred nautical miles further east sits the American aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) Carrier Strike Group.

โš”๏ธ Drones, Missiles, launched from Iran, Yemen, Lebanon & Iraq towards the same targets. We haven't seen that before.

A regional war would be devastating, & the outcome could (positively or negatively) reshape the region for decades.

Will Trump ignite it ?

๐Ÿ•ตโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ“I was able to more precisely geolocate the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72), and IRGC Drones seem to be flying over Trump's Armada.

โœˆ๏ธ CMV-22B reg 169453 took off from Duqm and disappeared around 09H30UTC

Same CMV-22B leaves the aircraft carrier and appears at 11H23UTC

It leaves less than two hours to land, do whatever they have to do, and take off again. Cannot be further than this area due to speed.

Bonus: The path of the Iranian Shahed-129 type drone today, definitely visually sighting the aircraft carrier.

๐Ÿ›ฐโœˆ๏ธ We spotted an Iranian Drone this morning, operating over the Arabian Sea, near USS Abraham Lincoln.

It was only visible for 1 minute. It seems to be one of the Shahed-129 or Mohajer 6 type. (Hex 731BCD)
