—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇾🇪 BREAKING: All U.S. embassies in the Middle East have issued security alerts for their citizens, including Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, Iraq, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, and Oman

President Trump is urgently departing from Camp David to the White House, arriving tonight instead of tomorrow.

@Middle_East_Spectator

Remember?

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇾🇪/🇸🇦 NEW: The U.S. State Department mentions the reason for the sudden state of alert; the possibility of escalation between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis, as well as Iran

@Middle_East_Spectator

Three main possibilities:

1. Pickaxe Mountain.

2. Major coalition airstrikes (including U.S.) against Yemen, which would in turn likely lead to the closure of Bab Al-Mandab & subsequent escalation, possibly including flare ups with Iran.

3. Widespread attacks against Iranian civilian infrastructure (powerplants, oil facilities, bridges, desalination, etc.)

Or all / a combination of the above.

NOTE: Reports of a joint ‘ground-invasion’ into Saudi Arabia from Iraqi militias and Ansarallah are bullshit.

Anyone who is aware of military affairs knows this is suicide and not in their interest, especially while Yemen is already in a position of strength.

—❗️🇸🇾 NEW: Air defenses were activated at Kharab Al-Jir base, north eastern Syria

Cause currently unknown.

@Middle_East_Spectator

Even an attack on Iraq is a possibility, for the whole Yanbu pipeline situation (that was falsely blamed on them).

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 BREAKING: Iran’s Khatam Al-Anbiyaa Central Command:

‘According to our intelligence, the criminal United States—seeking to mask its failures and secure hollow achievements in a war initiated through Zionist lies and staged events, and sustained by deception and trickery—has once again decided to resume hostile actions against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

This move follows a joint meeting in a European country, held with the approval of certain regional states.

We warn that should the U.S. commit any error against Iran, all its bases and interests in the region will—without any constraints or reservations—become targets of continuous, effective, and painful strikes.

We further warn that if regional nations, by persisting in their duplicitous policy toward the Islamic Republic of Iran, align themselves with the Great Satan’s aggression against Iran, they will be deemed complicit in this malice. Consequently, they can no longer expect any restraint or forbearance from Iran’s Armed Forces.’

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇺🇳 NEW: President Pezeshkian will depart to New York for the UN General Assembly

@Middle_East_Spectator

I don’t trust this at all, and I wouldn’t put anything past America.

Why wouldn’t they just arrest him and pull a Maduro? They’re so desperate they might as well.

—❗️🇸🇦/🇾🇪 NEW: Heavy clashes are taking place between Ansarallah and Saudi-backed PLC forces south of Taizz

Some reports say Ansarallah is close to taking the Al-Turbah junction and cutting off the Taizz–Aden road.
