Seems Harir may have a Reaper contingent. That might have been a very expensive explosion if that was a Hellfire mag.

As an aside apparently Delta Force maintains a small presence there.

Great video, but will it make a difference? I am going to guess that the C2 and accommodations were not adjacent to the ammo storage area and that the ammo was bermed off.

Casualties limited? Ammo replaceable?

Sad, but close to impossible to defend against.

Best defence is an engaged and supportive population - one that is supportive of the government.

Looks like the majority of the Iranian service fleet may now have been deleted. Best I can confirm is that these are not AI generated but come from a reputable geospatial intelligence firm.

With what has gotten through, Zelenskyy is now advertising Ukraine's expertise they've accumulated over the last 4 years to Europe.

Meanwhile, condolences from USSR 2.0 (archived link to non-RUS server)

The IRGC is going to see how much their investment in sleeper cells and proxies is going to pay off. I suspect a lot of sleeper cells are going to think "Ya, maybe not, I got a good life here"

So now that things are happening. Who thinks we'll see current heads of the regime replaced with members of the same regime, just like In Venezuela and ultimately nothing meaningfully changes for the Iranians.

Another hardliner, but this is expected to not end for another month (according to Trump: 4 weeks).

So not quite 'no meaningful changes for the Iranians' yet, but there are signs pointing to it.

And they apparently have the corporate structure in place to start taking orders. Operators are manning the phones.

So basically DPICM but at significant altitude.

Hard to counter even with a lot of gun systems, if you don’t hit it before it separates.

Earlier interceptions required.

What’s the odds for him making past 24hrs…

Going by the history of the last 6 months or so, it depends on if they offer up a tanker or two of oil.

Or a gold plated item.

2.5 kg
20 of them
8 km radius
8x8 = 64
3,14 *64 = 200 km2
200 / 20 = 1 grenade per 10 km2

An 81mm round weighs about 4 kg with a blast radius of 35 m
A 60 mm round weighs about 1.2 to 2 kg with a blast radius of 25 m

Call it one mortar round in 10 grid squares?
