Yesterday was day five of the Iran War and day 672 of the Palestinian genocide. This is what happened according to randos on Telegram via a rando Sri Lankan blogger, which is the best you're going to get amidst all the mainstream lies.

'Israel' and Iran have been trading blows, in that order. 'Israel' does a bit of light terrorism during the day, and Iran does some heavy bombing at night. That's what happened yesterday also, with 'Israel' hitting its usual targets—journalists and hospitals—while Iran hit 'Israel's' power source and political capital.

'Israel'

'Israel' has killed the most journalists in any modern war, they hunt them. Yesterday they targeted Iran's state television station, not coincidentally while Mohammad Marandi was there to be interviewed by Piers Morgan. You can see the bombing live in this video. Note that all these videos are autotranslated jankily.

The Iranians do not seem to give significant fucks. The anchors came back on and were chanting Death To 'Israel' shortly, bless their hearts.

Here's Younes Shadloo, their military correspondent, reporting outside the burning building while bleeding himself.

If the point was to silence these people I don't think it worked, because here you and I are hearing IRIB, which I've never done before. For example, here's an IRIB presenter (whose name I don't know, forgive me).

He's saying that they'll accept death before humiliation, which is much more than other Arab nations, which accept humiliation for football teams and nothing. I don't know where this war will end up, but you can't say that Iran hasn't done their duty, and that's what matters in the hereafter.

Interestingly 'Israel's' Channel 14 (close to Netanyahu) was also disrupted, though through sound, not fury. @FotrosResistancee (my main source on Telegram) reported this as a probable cyberattack but I dunno.

'Israel's' favorite thing, even more than killing journalists, is bombing hospitals, which they're also doing in Iran. They attacked the Farabi Hospital in Kermanshah. “The ICU unit sustained serious damage, and patients were injured,” according to Fotros.

In other acts of terrorism under the guise of war, 'Israel' is still activating numerous drone cells within Iran. 'Israel' seems to be sending the drones in parts and cells are both assembling and releasing them in Iran, as this video shows.

These cells are everywhere, for example, “Iranian police officers discovered a large amount of equipment and parts for making drones and micro-drones, and several have been arrested in Isfahan — Mehr News”

This is a very sophisticated MOSSAD operation—training, supplying, and then activating terrorist cells within Iran—and unwinding it is devilishly tricky for the security forces. However, once the cover of these cells is blown, those months or years of work are gown. The intent of these attacks is to sow chaos and ideally rebellion within 'Israel', but this is a strange theory (people generally unite when attacked) and doesn't seem to work. Terrorism is a weapon of the weak, which tells you 'Israel's' position. But they are very strong terrorists.

'Israel' also have a conventional military which they use for luxury terrorism, ie missiles and long-distance drones. For example, they're trying to probe Iran with American MQ-9 Reaper drones, which Yemen has been plucking out of the sky. Iran can do that too. This is a Reaper shot down near Ilam, west of Iran. That's $30 million down the tube.

In more successful attacks, “Iranian police announced the closure of Tehran-Qom highway as a projectile hit something on that road,” and “Israel targeted a military garrison, west of Tehran, with mini drones, and air defenses have also been activated in that area. There has also been one small explosion east of Tehran, again either mini drone or a planted explosive.” Israel seems able to both execute and coordinate combined drone/missile attacks using internal saboteurs and launched weapons.

This is an image of successful (seemingly missile) strikes near Tehran, these are not small and they are getting through air defenses (which are intercepting many attacks, but certainly not all).

And here's video,

The overall body count of 'Israel's' attack as of dawn the 17th June (ie, up to the 16th) was as follows, according to Iran's Ministry of Health (via RNN),

224 martyrs and 1,277 hospitalized following the zionist regime's aggression The unfortunate result of this false slogan that "’israel’ has nothing to do with the Iranian nation and its goals are only military!" After 65 hours of the zionist regime's aggression, the number of injured and martyred is 1,481.

1,277 people were hospitalized in university hospitals in the country, and more than 90 percent are civilians! Of this number, 522 people were discharged and 224 women, men, and children were martyred.

Now let's move on to Iran's response, which was forthcoming. Regarding the state of war, IRGC Commander-in-Chief, Brigadier General Pakpour said, “Even if the Israeli attacks stop, we will continue our mission until the end.”

Iran

Iran launches waves of missile and (long-distance) drones at night, and last night was no different.

The broad strategy here is wearing down 'Israel's' air defenses (two-for-one deal on interceptor missiles) with old stock, sneak a few new hypersonics in for shock and awe, and then unload the good shit when shields are down. Iran is slowly but surely getting there, but this is a delicate balance. They also have to avoid their people getting nuked, as White Empire (American and 'Israel' same thing) is strongly hinting at (every accusation is a confession).

Anyways (big anyways), you can see the broad strategy here in one short video. Missiles seem to almost loiter in the sky, some of them getting shot down, when suddenly an absolute comet comes out of nowhere and impacts unstoppably.

Iran has an entire class of unstoppable missiles, and class is in session. Hypersonics (defined not just by their speed, but maneuverability ‘under the radar’) are a game changer, and I would remind you that America does not have them, and no current air defenses can (reliably) stop them. Iran is slowly (this started with Hamas, Ansarallah, and Hezbollah) exhausting 'Israeli' air defenses, while simultaneously executing offensive operations, now whenever they feel like it. Even the slower missiles hit, cause 'Israel' simply can't target all of them.

After the first wave last night, Middle East Spectator said, “About 3 impacts in Haifa, 5 impacts in Tel Aviv, and at least 1 impact in Eilat. It was a quite small wave, but the rate of interception is getting lower and lower, and Iran knows this.” They later revised this to say the wave was “more missiles were fired than I initially thought. The wave consisted of about 50 missiles. Many of the impacts are outside of civilian areas and subject to a full military censorship.” It's hard to say what's going on, but to me, last night's fireworks looked a bit less in quantity, but more in quality. What the IRGC Aerospace Force (they barely have an Air Force, this is more a rocket force) said is,

The attack was stronger and more destructive than before, and we used innovative methods, intelligence, and more advanced equipment, which led to the disruption of the enemy's multi-layered defense systems, such that the regime's defense systems even mistakingly targeted each other.

These were serious hits on serious targets, and there were far more than MES initially noted. You can see two hits on Haifa in the video below alone.

Haifa Power Plant

Last night Iran hit, most notably, Haifa power plant. This connects to the oil refinery that powers 'Israel's' war machine, which must be powered down for the genocide to stop and Palestine to be freed. Bitch states like Turkey and Azerbaijan supply 'Israel' the oil, but they still have to refine it. But not if Iran finds the refinery with rockets!

You can see the hit(s) on Haifa quite clearly in this video. As Middle East Spectator describes it, “Clear footage of two Iranian ballistic missiles evading Israeli interceptors and striking Haifa power plant.”

You can see the air defense missiles go up (this is a protected site) and the offensive missiles come down anyways, then here the secondary explosions. And in other video, you can see it burning.

“All of the refineries and subsidiaries facilities have been shut down,” to quote a shitty autotranslate of an official Bazan Group letter to their stock market. The autotranslate also calls the company ‘my daughter needs oil for her hair Ltd’ but you get the jist of it.

Shit's on fire and I'm glad to see it. This refinery is the fire that keeps Gaza burning. And it keeps the cursed colony running. Now they have problems with energy supply, hid for a bit because the colony's economy activity is at a standstill anyways. @FotrosResistancee reports today that “Following Iran’s missiles hitting the oil refineries in Haifa and shutting it down, one of Israel’s major fuel companies Sonol informed customers that they will significantly reduce fuel supply.”

Also bear in mind that 'Israelis' are currently banned from leaving the country, despite Maj. General Mousavi, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces clearly saying, “we warn residents of the occupied territories — especially Tel Aviv and Haifa — to evacuate these areas to save their lives and not become sacrifices to Netanyahu’s animalistic ambitions. Freedom-loving people of the world can rest assured that the great Iranian nation, led by its armed forces, will avenge the blood of the martyrs — God willing, by His grace and might.” 'Israelis' are not much for an actual fight against more than starving children, and would certainly flee but they can't, because Netanyahu has locked the exit. 'Israelis' are being kept as hostages and human shields because—inscribe this on your brain—every accusation is a confession.

Note that some settlers are travelling via Egypt (Sinai, below), Jordan, or taking boats to Cyprus.

The colony is deeply unsettled, as it should be. The Jewish population of the Jewish state overwhelmingly supports genocide and they should self-deport from the occupied territories immediately, as advised.

To return to the hellfire that's returning to sender, Tel Aviv is also burning, the Resistance didn't forget about you.

As you can see, the missile defenses are completely overwhelmed. Give that any missile defense shoots at least 2-1 and takes some finite time to reload, they mathematically can't deal with saturation attacks, even with slower, ballistic missiles. The stuff is just hitting, more and more. Remember also that these missile defenses have already been softened up by Ansarallah (via Yemen), Hezbollah, and Hamas. The Iron Dome is an Iron sieve now, that shit is cooked.

I'm using 'Iron Dome' colloquially as most people do, even though it's really at least four interconnected systems of which the Iron Dome is really only for short-range rockets. You heard the IRGC say earlier that “the regime's defense systems even mistakingly targeted each other,” and here you can see it for yourself. This is what @FotrosResistancee hilariously calls “the antisemite interceptor missile, that malfunctioned and 180 degree hit Tel Aviv.”

Welcome to the Resistance, 'Israeli' rocketry. In cowboy terms, these missile defense systems are being ridden hard and put away wet, they'll simply start breaking down under these conditions. You can already see it happening. 'Israeli' already has the most density of air defense systems and rushing units over from Ukraine doesn't help much. They're already crying uncle in the sense of crying for Uncle Sam to help.

But that's all today's news, and this post only covers yesterday. Tomorrow we'll cover Iran's successful hits on MOSSAD headquarters, a military intelligence warehouse, the Palestinian Resistance's successful hits on invading genociders, and Donald Trump's unveiled threats to nuke Tehran. Hopefully it and the Ayatollah are there in the morning. Godspeed to the Resistance. Death to 'Israel', death to America, and the whole White Empire.

If you've read this far, I encourage you to donate to the Sameer Project in Gaza whose leader in Gaza—Mosab—was murdered by 'Israel' yesterday. Peace to the martyrs. War to those who violate.
