    ❗️The USA has already spent more than $42 billion on the military operation in Iran, reported the portal Iran War Cost Tracker.

    The portal’s counter is based on a Pentagon briefing to the US Congress, which stated that Washington spent $11.3 billion on the first six days of the operation in the Middle East and plans to spend an additional $1 billion for each subsequent day of the conflict.

    🇸🇾🇦🇪 Syrian Interior Ministry spokesman Nour al-Din al-Baba responds to Syrians storming the UAE embassy in protest:

    Rather than defend his own people, he calls the protesters “ignorant individuals” linked to Palestine the defunct Assad regime, and rushes to reassure Abu Dhabi that the relationship is safe.

    “What unites us with our Arab brothers, led by the UAE, is far greater — far, far greater — than what divides us.”

    The HTS government is throwing Syrian protesters under the bus to stay aligned with the UAE, which is itself deeply tied to Washington, Tel Aviv, and London.

    The Syrian people protested and their government apologized to the oppressors.

    ❌ The truth is becoming clear. The target in Isfahan was the nuclear facility.

    The landing of C-130s in Isfahan had nothing to do with pilot rescue operations. The intended target was the Isfahan nuclear facility and the Baharestan site.

    Last night, the Americans carried out two separate operations inside Iran.

    First, a large-scale heliborne operation in Kohgiluyeh aimed at rescuing their pilot. This involved an overt assault on Mount Siah using multiple fighter jets and helicopters.

    Meanwhile, operating under the assumption that all of Iran’s attention was fixed on Kohgiluyeh, two C-130 aircraft carrying Delta Force operatives landed covertly at an abandoned airstrip south of Isfahan. Each C-130 carried dozens of troops and two MH-6 Little Bird helicopters—four helicopters in total.

    The objective of this landing had nothing to do with pilot rescue. They were after something far larger and more strategic: striking Iran’s nuclear facilities using Little Bird helicopters.

    But a major problem arose: a rapid-response unit of the Law Enforcement Forces (Faraja) had anticipated such a scenario and was lying in wait.

    At that point, as Faraja commandos engaged the American aircraft and helicopters, the pilot rescue operation became interlinked with a Delta Force extraction operation in Isfahan.

    With the American C-130s damaged by gunfire from Faraja special forces against the American positions, takeoff and escape became impossible. Consequently, a wave of helicopters involved in the original pilot rescue—supported by dozens of fighter jets—was diverted to southern Isfahan. Following an extremely heavy firefight and the downing of two Black Hawk helicopters in the area, and likely a third C-130 tanker aircraft, the Americans managed to evacuate their forces, along with their dead and wounded.

    Total American aircraft lost in Isfahan:

    · 2 Black Hawks.
    · 4 MH-6 Little Birds.
    · 2 C-130s (carrying troops and Little Birds).
    · 1 C-130 tanker.
    · 1 MQ-9 drone.

    Handala Hack Strikes 27 Zionist Companies for Minab’s Innocents

    They thought by spilling the innocent blood of Minab’s children, they could silence the voices of the oppressed. But today, those silenced voices echoed through lines of code, shaking the very walls of Zionist security.

    In response to this crime, Handala Hack targeted and defaced the websites of 27 Zionist companies. This operation was just a warning, a message from wounded hearts that now speak the language of cyber-retaliation.

    The blood of Minab’s children will not be forgotten. They were small, but their revenge is mighty.

    🇮🇷| The last photo of some of the Iranian military martyrs and those injured in the Kuh-e Siah of Dehdasht, hours before the US aircraft attacked them.

    According to some reports, this group targeted the C-130 aircraft(s) causing it to emergency land south of Isfahan.

    🇮🇷 BREAKING: IRGC issues statement on the US rescue operation:

    “Following the desperate attempts of the American terrorist army to rescue the pilot of their downed fighter jet, a number of enemy aircraft entered Iran in the early hours of April 5th.”

    Confirmed struck and forced into emergency landings south of Isfahan:
    🔸 2 C-130 military transport planes.
    🔸 2 Black Hawk helicopters.

    “After Iran’s fighters completed the encirclement — the contemptible enemy, in order to prevent the disgrace of Trump and preserve the hollow prestige of their army, was forced to heavily bomb their own downed aircraft, equipment, commanders, and soldiers.”

    Iran is now explicitly stating the US bombed its own trapped personnel to prevent capture.

    “The disgrace of the trapped president and the defeated American army cannot be repaired by rhetoric, media warfare, or psychological operations.”

    🇮🇷 Saeed Jalili on the new power equation at the Strait of Hormuz:

    “The power we now hold is based on a logic the world cannot reject. Before, they spoke through force. Now we are speaking through logic.”

    Iran now holds the geographic leverage, the entire world depends on the strait, and the entire world must comply with Iran’s terms. The sanctions equation has flipped: if you claim free trade, you no longer get to decide who has access and who doesn’t.

    VIDEO | Israel’s Channel 14 discussed the possibility of using a neutron bomb in Iran. When Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir was asked why such an option isn’t being used, he laughed and avoided giving a direct answer.
