JUST IN: 🇮🇷🇪🇺🇺🇦🇬🇧 Iran's Ballistic Missile Threat Moves Into Europe, United Kingdom First, Ukraine Now. Ukraine has become the second country after the United Kingdom to face an Iranian ballistic missile warning from Tehran. The warning follows Iran's accusation that Ukraine carried out a drone attack on an Iranian vessel in the Caspian Sea that killed one Iranian sailor. Tehran condemned the incident, summoned Ukraine's chargé d'affaires, and vowed retaliation. Iranian officials and state affiliated media have since warned that parts of Ukraine are within range of Iran's ballistic missiles. Iran's Sejjil-2 medium range ballistic missile has an estimated range of up to 2,000 km, while the distance from western Iran to eastern Ukraine is roughly 1,700–2,000 km, placing portions of Ukrainian territory within its theoretical strike range. A threat once confined to the Middle East is now being directed toward Europe.

UNCONFIRMED: Ukraine has claimed that Russia🇷🇺 launched an ICBM at targets in Dnipropetrovsk, the reported footage shows multiple warheads landing. If this is true, this is the first time Russia has used an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile in war, and the first time in history that an ICBM has been used in warfare. Russia may have just demonstrated that for 2 years, Russia hadn’t even begun to bring out the most powerful weapons in its arsenal. With NATO hellbent on using Ukraine as a launchpad for long-range missile strikes against Russia… Ukraine is about to find out the true destructive extent of Russia’s capabilities

🇷🇺 “The attack on Cheboksary with a ‘Flamingo’-type missile showed that there are huge holes in Russia’s air defense system.” 🔻 “A simple Ukrainian cruise missile, which does not have the ability to fly along the terrain and is launched directly from Ukrainian territory, spent almost an hour and a half in the air and could not be detected, intercepted by fighter jets, or shot down by anti-aircraft missile systems. That is, without radars, the air defense of the Russian Federation is ineffective.” 🔻 “In the event of an attack by NATO or the United States, they can use hundreds and thousands of Tomahawk, Storm Shadow, and JASSM cruise missiles against us. In such a case, we will not be able to repel such an attack and will suffer enormous damage. As already happened in Iraq, Yugoslavia, and Iran.” — writes Russian imperialist journalist Maxim Kalashnikov. This is another highly critical and realistic assessment from a prominent Russian Z-imperialist voice. Kalashnikov openly acknowledges serious gaps in Russia’s air defense, especially against relatively simple but long-range Ukrainian strikes. His warning about vulnerability to large-scale Western cruise missile attacks highlights the broader strategic risks Russia faces the longer the war continues. Video is generated by grok AI

🇺🇸🇮🇷 How Iranian Missiles Are Challenging U.S. Air Defenses Recent conflicts have intensified concerns within the Pentagon over the effectiveness of Iranian ballistic missile capabilities against advanced U.S. and allied air defense systems in the Middle East. According to military assessments and defense analysts, several Iranian missile systems appear capable of performing terminal phase maneuvers, changing their trajectory during the final seconds of flight. This makes it significantly more difficult for air defense systems to accurately predict the missile's path and execute a successful interception. Traditional missile defense systems calculate an incoming missile's trajectory well before impact. However, a missile that alters its course at the last moment can reduce interception opportunities and increase the likelihood of reaching its intended target with greater accuracy. The reported performance of these missiles has become a growing concern for the Pentagon, particularly after recent attacks on U.S. military facilities in the region. Analysts believe these capabilities are forcing the United States to reassess its missile defense posture, interceptor deployment, and early warning strategies across the Middle East. While U.S. air defense systems remain among the most advanced in the world, evolving missile technologies continue to create new operational challenges. The ongoing competition between increasingly sophisticated offensive missiles and modern defensive systems is expected to remain a key focus for military planners in the years ahead.

🚨🇺🇸🇺🇦 UKRAINE URGES THE U.S. TO RUSH PATRIOT MISSILES AS RUSSIAN BALLISTIC ATTACKS INTENSIFY. Acting Defense Minister Yevhen Khmara has called on the United States to accelerate deliveries of PAC-3 missile interceptors and PAC-2 GEM-T surface-to-air missiles to strengthen Ukraine’s air defenses. According to Khmara, rapidly supplying additional Patriot missiles is essential for defending Ukraine against Russia’s growing ballistic missile threat. “The rapid delivery of these missiles will save Ukrainian lives, protect our cities, and preserve our defense industry,” the acting defense minister said. The appeal underscores Ukraine’s continued need for advanced Patriot interceptors, which remain among the most effective systems available for countering ballistic missile attacks and protecting critical infrastructure.

🇷🇺 RUSSIA'S "UNINTERCEPTABLE" HYPERSONIC MISSILE GOES LIVE IN BELARUS - BY NEW YEAR'S Belarus just confirmed: the Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile system will be on combat duty in December 2025. That means Putin will have nuclear-capable missiles that can hit anywhere in Europe, travel at Mach 10+, and evade existing European defenses - deployed roughly 60 km from Minsk by year’s end. What Oreshnik is: An intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) derived from Russia’s RS-26 Rubezh ICBM. It carries multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs) - six warheads, each dispersing submunitions, a capability previously associated almost exclusively with nuclear systems. Estimates go up to 36 submunitions per missile. The speed: Putin claims speeds up to Mach 10. Ukrainian military officials told CNN it reached Mach 11. Russian officials insist its warheads are effectively immune to interception. The range: Russia’s missile forces chief says Oreshnik can reach all of Europe. Russian state media claims: 11 minutes to Poland 17 minutes to NATO headquarters in Brussels First combat use: November 21, 2024 - strike on Dnipro, Ukraine. The missile reportedly carried inert or “dummy” warheads, but the kinetic energy alone caused significant damage. A CSIS director noted that even non-explosive hypersonic impacts can be devastating. Why it matters: Most European missile defenses are ineffective against Oreshnik. It flies above the engagement envelope of many systems and descends too quickly for terminal defenses like Patriot. Only Arrow 3 and SM-3 Block IIA have theoretical intercept capability - and inventories are limited. The conventional threat: In a NATO conflict, Russia could strike air bases, command centers, and missile sites with conventional Oreshniks, achieving strategic effects without using nuclear weapons. Foreign Policy notes it may take dozens of Iskanders to neutralize a major air base, but far fewer Oreshniks. Production status: August 1, 2025: Putin says Oreshnik entered service and first batch delivered November 4, 2025: Putin claims serial production underway The constraint: Zelensky claims Russia can produce only about six Oreshnik missiles per year. Ukrainian forces also claim one system was destroyed at Kapustin Yar, leaving two operational. The deployment: Belarusian President Lukashenko confirmed combat duty by December: “Oreshnik is a scary weapon. It will be put on combat duty in December.” Satellite imagery in late August 2025 showed launch-site preparation about 60 km south of Minsk. The strategic shift: Belarus already hosts Russian tactical nuclear weapons. Adding IRBMs places most European capitals within minutes of impact and shortens NATO reaction time dramatically. Expert assessment: Nonproliferation expert Jeffrey Lewis says Oreshnik combines existing technologies rather than introducing revolutionary ones. A University of Oslo defense expert estimates no more than 10% new components. However, analyst Mathieu Boulegue argues its real value is psychological - intimidating Western audiences rather than changing battlefield dynamics. Putin’s messaging: Putin warned Oreshnik could be used against NATO allies enabling Ukrainian strikes inside Russia. In December 2024, he said the missile brings Russia “close to having no need to use nuclear weapons.” The context: The November 2024 strike came days after Putin revised Russia’s nuclear doctrine, lowering the threshold for nuclear response to include certain conventional attacks supported by nuclear powers. What’s actually happening: Russia is deploying intermediate-range missiles banned under the INF Treaty until the U.S. withdrawal in 2019 - capable of delivering conventional or nuclear warheads along trajectories Europe struggles to intercept. Decades of NATO base consolidation mean airpower is concentrated in a few high-value sites, making them uniquely vulnerable to Oreshnik’s submunition dispersal. Bottom line: By December 31, 2025, Russia will have Oreshnik missiles on combat alert in Belarus - roughly 60 km from Minsk - aimed at NATO bases, command centers, and capitals. 11 minutes to Warsaw. 17 minutes to Brussels. Conventional or nuclear. You don’t know which until impact. The deterrence calculus has shifted. Russia can now threaten massive conventional damage without crossing the nuclear threshold - using missiles Europe largely cannot stop. And they’re going live in 2 weeks.

BREAKING: As Russia launched a massive wave of missile and drone strikes across Ukraine, Starokostiantyniv Air Base—one of the most important bases of the Ukrainian Air Force—has now come under heavy attack. The air base, which has long served as a key operating location for Ukraine's remaining Sukhoi Su-24M/MR strike and reconnaissance aircraft and has also hosted other combat aircraft, was targeted by tactical ballistic missiles launched by Russian Iskander-M systems. Videos and reports circulating online show large plumes of smoke and intense fires rising from the area. Preliminary reports suggest that fuel-storage and ammunition-storage facilities may have been hit. The extent of the damage remains unclear, and there is currently no independent confirmation regarding possible losses of Ukrainian aircraft or other military assets at the base.

🚨🇺🇦✈️ ZELENSKY: UKRAINE IS BUILDING DRONES CAPABLE OF REACHING UP TO 10,000 KILOMETERS. If achieved, virtually every part of Russia would fall within the range of Ukraine’s next generation of long-range strike systems. President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that Ukraine’s defense industry is rapidly expanding the capabilities of its indigenous drone fleet. According to him, Ukraine already fields long-range drones with an operational range of more than 3,000 kilometers, a figure expected to increase to 4,000 kilometers by the end of this year. Looking ahead, Zelensky revealed that next year Ukraine expects to deploy drones capable of flying between 5,000 and 10,000 kilometers, marking a dramatic leap in the country’s long-range strike potential. Such a capability would allow Ukraine to hold strategic military targets across the entire Russian Federation at risk, including locations thousands of kilometers from the front line, fundamentally reshaping the strategic depth of the conflict.

🚨🇺🇦🔥 DEADLY FLAMINGO MISSILE STRIKE DEVASTATES A KEY RUSSIAN DEFENSE PLANT IN KIROV. Ukrainian OSINT researchers and fact-checkers say the attack on the AO Aviatek factory killed 30 employees and wounded another 80. The strike was carried out using a Flamingo cruise missile, hitting one of the facilities connected to Russia’s military-industrial sector. Local hospitals are now under severe pressure. The city’s trauma department has reportedly reached full capacity, while blood banks are already warning of critical shortages. Even more striking, air-raid sirens never sounded in Kirov, and no evacuation was ordered at the plant before the impact. Employees were not evacuated even after the strike, exposing a major failure in Russia’s civil-defense and emergency-response system. The attack demonstrates that even defense facilities deep inside Russian territory are no longer beyond the reach of Ukraine’s expanding long-range strike arsenal. Video is AI

🇺🇦🚀 “The Ukrainian ballistic missile will soon be ready and it will strike Russia. The appearance of Ukrainian ballistics will change Ukraine’s status in the world,” — Ukrainian Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov. 🗣️ According to him, Russian missile strikes on Ukrainian cities and civilian infrastructure have no impact on the situation at the front or the pace of weapons production. He described these strikes solely as “an instrument of moral pressure.” Fedorov’s statement underscores Ukraine’s confidence in its rapidly developing long-range strike capabilities. The imminent arrival of domestically produced ballistic missiles will significantly enhance Ukraine’s ability to deter and respond to Russian aggression, shifting the strategic balance. At the same time, the acknowledgment of Russian strikes as primarily psychological highlights Ukraine’s growing resilience and determination to continue the fight regardless of terror tactics.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 CENTCOM just requested deployment of the Dark Eagle hypersonic missile to the Middle East. This would be the first time the U.S. has ever deployed a hypersonic weapon in combat. Here's why it's being requested now specifically. Iran has spent the ceasefire relocating its ballistic missile launchers deeper into the country, beyond the reach of the Precision Strike Missile, whose range caps out around 500 kilometers. The U.S. burned through its entire PrSM inventory in the opening weeks of this war. The weapon designed to replace it hasn't been declared fully operational yet. Dark Eagle travels at Mach 5 plus, maneuvers unpredictably in the terminal phase, and has a range of over 1,700 miles. No existing Iranian air defense system can intercept it. From launch positions in the Gulf it reaches Tehran in minutes. Now here's the catch nobody is leading with. The Pentagon's own testing office says it won't have enough data to evaluate Dark Eagle's combat effectiveness until early 2027. It has repeatedly failed to launch during tests due to launcher and production quality issues. A defense official told Fox News it has reached "initial operational capability." That is the military's careful way of saying it works, sometimes, under controlled conditions. One senior fellow at the Stimson Center said plainly: "How do you know it is defense budget season in Washington? An unnecessary push to deploy a not-yet-fully-operational hypersonic missile against Iran. Nothing says fund me like first use." There are roughly 8 missiles available. Each costs $15 million. Russia and China have been fielding their own hypersonic weapons for years while the US repeatedly delayed. Deploying Dark Eagle now sends a message to Tehran, Beijing, and Moscow simultaneously. The problem is that message cuts both ways. It signals America's hypersonic era has finally arrived. It also signals that America is considering using an unproven weapon, in combat, for the first time, against a target that has spent the ceasefire hardening and dispersing precisely because it saw this coming.

An unnecessary push to deploy a not-yet-fully-operational hypersonic missile against Iran. Nothing says fund me like first use." There are roughly 8 missiles available. Each costs $15 million. Russia and China have been fielding their own hypersonic weapons for years while the US repeatedly delayed. Deploying Dark Eagle now sends a message to Tehran, Beijing, and Moscow simultaneously. The problem is that message cuts both ways. It signals America's hypersonic era has finally arrived. It also signals that America is considering using an unproven weapon, in combat, for the first time, against a target that has spent the ceasefire hardening and dispersing precisely because it saw this coming.

BREAKING 🔥🇺🇦 Ukraine Lyviv Oblast Ukraine confirms that the missile that hit the Lviv region flew at a speed of about 13,000 km/h along a ballistic trajectory. It makes it clear that an Oreshnik IRBM with MIRV technology was used in the attack. It’s the second time an ICBM or IRBM is used in war After the Russian Oreshnik IRBM strike, local media report that there is “almost no gas” in Lviv Oblast. Earlier reports indicated that the Oreshnik hit a strategic underground gas storage facility in the city of Stryi, Lviv region. The facility is located 66 km from Lviv and 75 km from the Polish border. Several volleys of MIRV strikes can be seen in the video. The fact that it happened close to the Polish border is a Russian message for all of Europe. Expert opinion : Oreshnik ICBM is unstoppable since it enters into from space to atmosphere with a speed of Mach 10. Neither Europe nor America has such an anti air defence to stop it. Under normal circumstances it carries nuclear warheads that can erase any European city from map and sends back to stone age. Last night, there was a clear sign that Russia is not joking.

BREAKING: Iran has launched a simultaneous wave of ballistic missile and drone attacks on U.S. military positions across the region after fresh U.S. strikes on Bandar Abbas, Bushehr, and Shiraz. First: The U.S. struck targets in Bandar Abbas, Bushehr, and Shiraz, with smoke seen rising from the Electronics Industries Complex in Shiraz. Then: Iran launched ballistic missiles from Zanjan, Khomeyn, and Tabriz toward U.S. bases in Jordan and Kuwait. Next: Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan came under reported missile attack, with at least five ballistic missiles launched toward the jointly operated U.S.-Jordanian base near Azraq. Air defense systems were activated, though it remains unclear whether any missiles impacted the base. Meanwhile: Sirens sounded across Kuwait, followed by reports of explosions. Sirens also sounded at the U.S. Consulate in Erbil, while preliminary reports indicated a strike on a U.S.-linked industrial complex in Jordan. Air defense activity was reported over Jordan as interceptions continued. 1. Attak on shiraz, Iran and 2. Missile launch from Iran 3. Air defense activity in Jordon. 4. Missile over Jordon.

🚨An underground missile manufacturing facility tied to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard infrastructure has reportedly been taken out. According to the post, the strike destroyed more than 100 partially manufactured long-range missiles before they could ever be deployed. Think about the implications of that. Every missile destroyed in a factory is one that never launches… one that never reaches a city… one that never threatens civilians or military targets later. Facilities like these are not simple workshops. They are the industrial backbone behind missile programs… the places where propulsion systems, guidance packages, and warheads are assembled before deployment. When a production site like that goes offline, it doesn’t just remove existing weapons. It disrupts the entire pipeline. Components… engineers… assembly lines… logistics… everything connected to that network suddenly collapses. If the report is accurate and the factory is truly out of service, that represents a major blow to the ability to produce long-range strike systems. The strategic significance of destroying a missile factory is enormous. Because the most effective way to stop missiles… is to eliminate them before they ever leave the ground. #SilentMajoritySpeaks #AStoneGroove

❗️ ❗️ 🇯🇵🇷🇺 Japan has begun the urgent deployment of troops to the island of Hokkaido. Tokyo is seriously concerned that Russia may open a second front in the Far East and is rapidly strengthening its military presence directly along the Russian border. Moscow has deployed Su-35 fighters and anti-ship missiles on the disputed Kuril Islands. In the spring, Russia also demonstrated Kinzhal air-launched ballistic missiles near Japan’s coastline. Despite its pacifist constitution, Japan is now developing its own counterstrike missiles and is doubling its defense budget. This development reflects a significant shift in Japan’s security policy amid growing tensions with Russia. The rapid reinforcement of Hokkaido and the acceleration of long-range missile programs indicate that Tokyo no longer views Russia solely as a distant threat, but as a direct and immediate security challenge in the region.

🇺🇦 Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, General Oleksandr Syrskyi, has approved the concept for the development of missile troops and artillery until 2030. 🔺 The document provides for the completion of work and the launch of mass serial production of domestically produced ballistic and cruise missiles. In combination with unmanned systems, this will make it possible to create a balanced long-range fire system capable of destroying targets at distances of up to 2,000 kilometers. This long-term concept is a clear strategic signal. Ukraine is systematically building its own high-precision, long-range strike capabilities. Achieving a 2,000 km range would allow Ukrainian forces to reach virtually any target in European Russia, fundamentally altering the balance of the war and reducing dependence on foreign partners for deep strikes.

What if any preparations have you seen Iran make ahead of the war? Can you discuss It’s missile capabilities? Any intelligence capabilities? Any surprises it might happen in store? When the 12-day war ended, I estimated that Iran would need about six months to recover, including its nuclear program. Contrary to popular belief, Iran did not lose its entire long-range or medium-range air defense network; while some launchers were damaged, the primary targets of the Israeli strikes were the radar systems. Once the radars were neutralized, Iran successfully hid the bulk of its remaining batteries, leaving much of its arsenal intact. In contrast, short-range systems like the Tor-M1 and domestic variants were heavily engaged against cruise missiles, often being lost or damaged only after their ammunition was completely exhausted. Since then, Iran has worked to rebuild its destroyed radar network and, above all, to implement a genuine counterintelligence doctrine. The Mossad operations against Iranian radars and air defense systems have shaped new perimeter defense and counterintelligence doctrines not only in Iran but in other countries as well. If we look at the quantity of weapons and the organization of armed groups during Iran’s most recent protests, I would say the problem of foreign intelligence operations inside the country remains severe. This seriously threatens much of Iran’s capabilities, and I foresee a wave of sabotage operations as a new war draws closer. Iran has begun receiving collaboration from China across multiple areas,from satellites to internal counterintelligence, but it may still take some time for this to produce tangible results. During the last years, the Mossad relied heavily on cell phones, using SMS for recruitment and accessing device GPS for target location. Iran has since focused intensely on preventing any repetition of this, and on this specific issue, the Chinese appear to have provided support. Although foreign intelligence services have operated extensively inside Iran, the scale of any armed opposition groups is negligible compared to the Iranian armed forces, which could still draw on allied paramilitaries and militias in neighboring countries, including the Houthis. Iran has become a missile power with a stockpile far larger than Western estimates suggest. As early as 1998, Iran was already producing missiles with ranges exceeding 1,000 km, and it has continued doing so ever since, developing 12 to 15 different models in that range - meaning all are capable of reaching Israel. That is nearly 30 years of continuous missile production, resulting in a stockpile of several thousands. Another area where Iran has emerged as a global power is drones, including underwater ones. Iran’s UUVs have evolved rapidly into mass-produced models with integrated AI, and I believe they hold some major surprises in reserve. A key point today is that the AN/TPY-2 radars, which played a critical role in tracking Iranian missiles, would be among the first targets to be engaged. These high-powered X-band radars are the backbone of regional missile defense, providing essential data to THAAD and Patriot batteries. However, because they are large, stationary, and emit high-energy signals, they are highly vulnerable to a first-strike or saturation attack, which would effectively 'blind' the entire defensive network. Obviously, a defense budget of nearly one trillion dollars cannot be compared to Iran’s, but the real question is whether the cost and effort are worth the potential casualties. Even without Israel, the Americans maintain an immense advantage in aerial operations over Iran; however, as I have stated before, this superiority does not translate to the maritime theater.

The Israeli Air Force has dropped over 12,000 bombs in Iran since the start of the war, in over 8,500 separate strikes on Iranian regime targets, the military says. A senior IAF official says that "in 18 days, we flew as much as we would in a year." Of the 12,000 munitions, 3,600 alone were used in strikes in Tehran, according to the IDF. IAF fighter jets have carried out 5,700 separate sorties, including over 540 to central and western Iran and 50 deeper east in the country. Military officials say that the IAF is carrying out constant air operations over Iran to thwart ballistic missile fire on Israel, using new techniques that allow for longer operations without the need for refueling. In this formation, dubbed "metro sorties" by the IAF, drones and fighter jets loiter before carrying out strikes on ballistic missile launchers, Iranian soldiers, and other targets, based on "real-time information." When a new target is identified, IAF aircraft can be quickly dispatched to strike it. This was the case for the killing of Iran's intelligence minister, Esmaeil Khatib, in Tehran yesterday, according to the IDF. Officials say this effort relies on maintaining air superiority over Iran. The military assesses that its strikes have destroyed around 85% of Iran's air defense and detection systems. More than 300 targets relating to Iran's air defenses, including missile launchers and radars, have been struck, the IDF says. In terms of Iran's advanced air defense systems, the IAF assesses that it has destroyed 92% of them, with only a handful of such systems remaining, including some that are hidden and not in use. The IDF says it has destroyed around 80% of Iran's older air defense systems, along with 80% of its radars. Iran also has what the military describes as "decentralized" air defense systems, where missile launchers are connected to various optical systems, such as rudimentary cameras with artificial intelligence tracking software, to target Israeli aircraft. Some 75% of these systems have been destroyed, and military officials acknowledge they are much harder to locate than the advanced systems. Additionally, the IDF says it has destroyed or disabled around 60% of Iran's estimated 470 ballistic missile launchers. Some previous military estimates put this number at 70%. Around 200 of the launchers were destroyed in strikes, while another 80 are not considered to be operational after the IAF struck tunnel entrances to subterranean facilities where they are stored, according to the military. The IAF says it continues to hunt down the remaining roughly 200 launchers to reduce the missile fire on Israel. The military also assesses that Iran still has hundreds of ballistic missiles that can reach Israel. It has so far launched over 350 at Israel, with the rate of fire slowing to 10-20 missiles a day in the past week, with just one or two missiles at a time.
