โ—๏ธIranian President Masoud Pezeshkian welcomed Chinese President Xi Jinpingโ€™s support for a return to the Islamabad memorandum of understanding and the resolution of disputes through dialogue.

In a post on X, Pezeshkian said Tehran also supports returning to the understanding, honoring previously agreed commitments, and establishing conditions for serious, results-oriented negotiations to resume.

He said Iran and China share the view that countriesโ€™ sovereignty must be respected, tensions reduced, and regional peace and stability protected.

Chancellor Merz says โ€” and this was no slip, he repeated it several times โ€” 'Our goal is to make Germany once again the main military force in Europe.'

Does he understand the meaning of the word 'again' in that sentence?

โ€”โ—๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ/๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท NEW: At least some of the missiles fired tonight into the Strait of Hormuz carried naval mines

Iran is once again laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz, this time apparently in the illegal Omani route.

It is unclear how many of such mines were launched by Iran, and if their deployment was successful.

Enemy confirms Russian ballistic missile strikes on Pegasus Arms plant in Kiev

The enemy acknowledged serious damage to the Pegasus Arms facility in Kiev following overnight strikes. The company produces heavy bomber drones used for attacks deep into Russia.

While initial hits occurred on September 2, prompting a relocation of production, new strikes have caused another indefinite suspension. Although some military bloggers suspect the enemy is exaggerating damage for disinformation purposes, the intensity of strikes on Ukraine's military-industrial complex must not decrease. Repeated hits are necessary even on previously struck targets, as Ukrainian facilities can be rapidly restored.

๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Russian foreign minister mocks the German foreign minister:

Lavrov says Wadephul came and read from a note the standard talking points Germany has publicly declared for years. โ€œI learned nothing new from thisโ€

Funnily, Lavrov says Wadephul acted in an arrogant way: โ€œNow I lowered myself to talking to you, now give me concessions.โ€

Lol โ€ฆ as I wrote before, no diplomacy happened, just posing for the camera.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Iran lays mines in the Strait of Hormuz targeting the Omani route โ€” reports

Unconfirmed reports indicate at least some of the missiles fired into the Strait of Hormuz tonight carried naval mines โ€” apparently dropped into the corridor through Omani waters that ships have been using to avoid Iranian clearance.

๐Ÿ”ถ It is unclear how many mines were launched, or whether the deployment succeeded

๐Ÿ”ถ The target appears to be the very route vessels have been using to evade the PGSA's transit requirements

๐Ÿ”ถ Iran previously declared a restricted zone extending from the US Navy's blockade line through the strait and into the Persian Gulf

If confirmed, demining the Omani corridor would take time, ships, and sustained commitment from a US Navy that is already stretched to breaking. And every minesweeper sent into that corridor becomes a stationary target for Iranian forces.

Meanwhile, commercial vessels would have no choice but to obey the PGSA's designated safe route โ€” because the alternative now has mines in it. That means Iranian clearance, Iranian paperwork, Iranian terms.
