President Trump has a fresh ultimatum for Iran after the Islamic Republic struck Israel’s largest oil refinery. Most Transportation Security Administration employees received back pay on Monday from the Department of Homeland Security shutdown, but it may be a while before airport security lines return to normal.
US has struck “more than 11,000 targets”“Over the past 30 days, we’ve struck more than 11,000 targets. Given the increase in air superiority, we’ve successfully started to conduct the“We’ve taken out more than 150 ships, including all Jamaran-class frigates inside their navy,” he added.
“We continue targeting their defense industrial base at scale, including factories, warehouses, nuclear research and development labs, and the associated infrastructure.” White House secretary Karoline Leavitt previously announced the 11,000 target milestone on Monday, but the military honchos explained that the strikes have enabled the US to cut even deeper into Iranian territory and start carrying out dynamic strikes.Pilots shot down by friendly fire in Kuwait already back to dropping bombsDynamic strikes are ad hoc attacks based on real-time intelligence as opposed to pre-planned missions. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced that the US carried out over 200 dynamic strikes in Iran on Monday. “Over the last 24 hours saw the lowest number of enemy missiles and drones fired by Iran,” Hegseth said. “We recently destroyed another one of their command bunkers… Just last night, we had 200 dynamic strikes alone.” President Trump had posted a video on Truth Social of a dramatic strike on an ammo depot in Isfahan that created a massive inferno. The strike involved 2,000-pound bunker-buster bombs, according to theAs a result, the US has witnessed the “lowest number of enemy missiles and drones fired by Iran” during the past 24 hours, according to Hegseth. US intelligence has found that the over a monthlong bombardment has dealt a blow to Iranian morale, according to Hegseth, who stressed that diplomatic options to end the war are very much on the table. “The latest Intel is clear out of CENTCOM,” the Secretary of War said. “Our strikes are damaging the morale of the Iranian military, leading to widespread desertions, key personnel shortages, and causing frustrations amongst senior leaders.” “If Iran is wise, they will cut a deal. President Trump doesn’t bluff, and he does not back down,” Hegseth warned Tehran at another point. “You can ask Khamenei about that.” Diplomatic talks with Iran “very real” and “gaining strength,” the Secretary of War added, noting that he’s had briefings from Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Vice President JD Vance, as well as Special Envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, all of whom are involved in the discussions. “We would much prefer to get a deal if Iran was willing to relinquish material they have and ambitions they have,” Hegseth said of Tehran’s nuclear ambitions. “That’s the goal. We don’t want to have to do more militarily than we have to, but I didn’t mean it flippantly when I said, in the meantime, we’ll negotiate with bombs.”that “great progress” has been made in the talks with Iran and predicted that a deal with Iran will “probably” be reached, warning that if it isn’t, the US “will conclude our lovely ‘stay’ in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island.” Kharg Island is where over 90% of Iran’s oil exports go through for processing. Trump has previously dangled strikes against the island as leverage against Iran as the theocratic regime wreaks havoc in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint where over a fifth of the world’s annual seaborne oil flows through.Judge berates IT worker who helped him with computer glitch in viral clip Why TSA workers in Atlanta are being ordered to give back gift cards that Tyler Perry handed out during shutdownPentagon preparing for weeks of ground operations in Iran — as Trump warned regime to ‘get serious’ about peace deal: reportStream It Or Skip It: 'Jo Nesbø's Detective Hole' On Netflix, Where A Troubled Detective Tracks Down A Serial Killer Who Is Terrorizing Oslo
