🇮🇷 Brigadier General Ghasem Ghoreishi, Deputy Commander of the Basij Organization:

The images and documentation to be released in the future—showing the esteemed Leader and Commander-in-Chief, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei (may God protect him), among the people in the streets and alleys, as well as in meetings with Armed Forces commanders—will once again expose and disgrace the enemies and ill-wishers of the Iranian nation.

@SimurghRes

OK time to let you all into a secret:
Imam Mojtaba Khamenei actually attended the martyred Leader's burial ceremony incognito.

@SimurghRes

🇾🇪❌️🇸🇦High-quality image of the impact of two Ansarallah ballistic missiles on the port of Al-Mukha, near the Bab al-Mandab Strait.
Al-Mukha is the primary logistics hub for the pro-Saudi mercenary forces.

@SimurghRes

The Ansarallah is a collective of northern and central Yemenis, not just the Houthi.
During the Cold War this was an independent country called North Yemen.
They had a fairly sophisticated weapons industry, assembling Scud variants under license.
Iran is the world centre of Shia Islam. It's the heart and soul of the movement for global justice that began with the Ashura Uprising and Martrydom of Imam Hussein (AS) in 670AD.
As such Iran supports the world Shia in their struggles. This means the ethnically & culturally diverse entity moves along identical general guidelines.
So the so-called Resistance is made up of autonomous communities whose self governance is independent.
However, when a threat to their way of life - being inclusive, multi-ethnic, multi cultural, abolitionist, meritochratic social microcosms - is posed by supremacist outside forces, they move in unison to defend their realms.
The term "proxy" therefore, doesn't apply.
Whereas the term amply applies to the rag tag collection of unelected regional regimes propped up by Western colonialism, since they act along the lines of their masters' interests, regardless of harm inflicted on societies under their whip.

@SimurghRes

🇮🇷 The Supreme Leader of the Revolution, Ayatollah Seyed Mojtaba Khamenei, has appointed former Sepah (IRGC) commander Mohsen Rezaei as his representative to the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC).

- He also thanked Mohammad-Bagher Zolghadr for his service.

- So, Zolghadr retains his position the Secretary of the SNSC despite reports to the contrary.
It's just that the prestige of being the Leader's representative has been passed on to Rezaei.

- General Rezaei is from the Bakhtiari clan. The clan is known for its stout defence of Iran throughout history.

- The Iranian general Aryobarzanes who nearly killed Alexander of Macedonia at the Battle of Persian Gates, was a Bakhtiari Satrap (appointed governor).

- The Bakhtiari and Zand clans are among those most closely associated with the ancient Iranians and the so-called Aryan Migration.
So perhaps this appointment is also a nod to the Persian majority in Iran.

@SimurghRes

This is was not without reason. Zolqadr made a booboo hence this change.

As we posted before.

🇮🇷The Leader of the Islamic Revolution has appointed Dr. Zolqadr as his political advisor in a formal decree.
** This is a highly strategic political move to keep lines of communication open with the Pezeshkian administration while owning their champion in SNSC. (It's complicated!)

@SimurghRes

🇮🇷Mohsen Rezaei:

When the Supreme Leader states, "In principle, I held a different view," it means the path he had in mind had bigger chances of success than the one taken by the Supreme National Security Council.

@SimurghRes

🇮🇷Mohammad-Javad Molavi, Editor-in-Chief of Raja News:

It is an oddity -and sends a poor signal- that the appointment to the country's most critical security post is announced by the Deputy Chief of Staff to the President.
Mr. Pezeshkian, who last night claimed that critics are trying to sow discord between the administration and the Supreme Leader.

[Perhaps Pezeshkian would better] ought to look for the root causes, in precisely these kinds of actions!

**We've informed you many times here, much to certain members of our audience's chargrin, of the very fact that the Pezeshkian/Ghalibaf "circus" (for want of a better word) was using Dr. Zolghadr to rubber stamp decisions that the Leader didn't entirely approve.

@SimurghRes

🇾🇪🇸🇦 Ansarallah has released footage showing multiple launches of missiles and drones that all but destroyed the Saudi logistics hub at the port of Al-Mukha earlier.
Fires and secondary explosions were ongoing for many hours following the strikes.

@SimurghRes

🇮🇷Iranian MP Seyed Mahmoud Nabavian:

Thankfully, the general outlines of the plan regarding control and sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz was approved by consensus in the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the Islamic Consultative Assembly.

@SimurghRes

🇮🇷Sound of an explosion from the Strait of Hormuz.
(Probably Iran targeting something)

@SimurghRes

🇾🇪❌️🇸🇦Satellite imagery of Ansarallah drone strike on Aramco refinery in Jizan, earlier today 09/08/2026. The large plume of smoke rising from the facility appears to support a direct hit on the oil storage area.

@SimurghRes

🇮🇷Local Report:

Something is burning very intensely over the horizon looking from the Iranian shores out to the Strait of Hormuz, following multiple cruise missile launches.

@SimurghRes

The local report appears to have been accurate.
This however, is the view of the same incident from the coast of Oman.
