The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) has revealed that the majority of missiles so far launched against American and Israeli targets during Operation True Promise 4 have been manufactured approximately ten years ago, with more advanced weaponry held in reserve

"The missiles currently used belong to a decade ago," Naeini emphasized. "Many of the missiles we have produced since the 12-day war until the Ramadan war have not yet been deployed".

Hot damn.

I go to bed every night struggling to sleep keeping on top of things, and it was looking like an ominous night. I was seeing struggles in Lebanon. Between white phosphorous, and being bombed to fuck they're having a hell of a time keeping Israel out of Khiam with some heavy fighting. Giving as good as they're getting. MTV Lebanon news published locations of Hezbollah. They were all bombed immediately by Israel. Then there was no Iran missiles for hours, Hebrew sources were feeling comfortable. I was getting bad news and worrying Iran had nothing left or were on the back foot.

Then bam, cyber attack on MTV puts it down completely (Handala?), and serious missile barrage on Tel aviv from Lebanon and Iran. Russian news claiming big hit on high military bunker (but we can never take anything like that as fact, probably bullshit propaganda). Dubai airport - another one of those intercepted drones fell in an open area and set their jet fuel on fire in a serious blaze.

No sources I'm afraid, just a summary of what's kept me up this evening
