Iran Launches Biggest Strikes Yet...

Iran has conducted a major retaliatory strike against U.S. military installations in Jordan, targeting key airbases such as Muhafik al-Salti and King Faisal. The attacks involved multiple waves of ballistic missiles, including cluster munitions and advanced "castle breaker" missiles that can change direction mid-flight. Footage shows dozens of missiles striking the bases, with many direct hits and no effective interception by U.S. Patriot systems—particularly in later waves. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claims to have destroyed several U.S. fighter jets, including F-15s, F-16s, and F-35s, asserting a significant tactical victory. The strikes follow a reported U.S. attack on Iranian oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and claims of targeting Iranian naval vessels. Despite the intensity of the Iranian response, U.S. defensive systems appear overwhelmed, highlighting vulnerabilities in regional air defense. Meanwhile, U.S. political figures like Marco Rubio have commented on the back-and-forth, emphasizing the escalating conflict. The situation is further complicated by off-topic political content, including Donald Trump’s promotion of misleading claims and attacks on Canada, which diverge from the core military narrative. The incident underscores a significant escalation in regional tensions and raises concerns about the stability of current U.S.-Iran dynamics.

This is a breaking news alert Iran has launched what appears to be one of its biggest retaliatory strikes since the war began against the Trump regime striking multiple US air bases in Jordan. This follows the Trump regime publishing video that it struck at least five Iranian oil tankers in the strait of Hormuz. Also the IRGC is saying that the Trump regime also targeted two Iranian naval ships. Now Iran responded right away shooting dozens of ballistic missiles into the United States bases in the region. We've seen a number of direct hits. We've seen the IRGC use cluster munitions with a great degree of success. I'll show you some of that footage. We also saw some of those castle breaker missiles. We've been talking about those new ballistic missiles which can change direction in the air. We saw those strike US military bases in the region. Iran is claiming that they were able to obliterate numerous US military assets in the region. A number of US planes I'll go over exactly what they are claiming. What we saw Iran do is do multiple waves of these ballistic missile strikes. The first wave we saw a lot of US interceptors appearing to have been used and then after that the second wave less interceptors by the third and fourth wave of the Iranian ballistic missile strikes. Those castle breakers and some of the other ballistics there were no interceptors to be found. Those cluster munitions were hitting their targets with impunity. The castle breakers were hitting their targets with impunity. There was no interceptors to be found by the fourth wave. Here you see Sencom publishing this video footage saying it destroyed five Iranian crude oil tankers right there. I showed you some of that b-roll at the top of the video where you can see for yourself what a lot of the what the skies looked like as Iran was responding and in terms of the bases that were being hit we're talking about in Jordan, Muhafik al-Saltier base near al-Azrak. Iran was using some of those Korshmur ballistic missiles. We saw some of the other bases being struck in the region as well and we'll get there in a moment also. So let's take a look over here at some of the strikes by Iran over here. You will see some of these strikes let's play this clip right here. More footage over here. This footage was recorded by a wildlife photographer in Jordan. This is the King phasel airbase being struck. Let's play this clip right here. Here we have video footage from Iran most likely recorded in the city of Yazd showing the moment of launch of what appears to be one of these Karashmar 3 or 4 ballistic missiles equipped with cluster munitions from the IRGC. Here let's play this clip. Take a look at this video showing the many of Iran's missiles making direct hits at Muhafik salty airbase. This was by the third or fourth wave. I counted 40-50 maybe as many as 60-70 ballistic missiles being used by Iran. They still have a huge arsenal and you'll see over here this huge strike with very little interceptors at this point play this clip. Take a look at this close-up footage of Iran launching a ballistic missile. Again, multiple direct hits in Jordan. You can see this one for yourself. Let's play it. Then the IRGC Aerospace Force released this footage showing the mass launch of Imad Kadar, Kyber Shaken ballistic missiles at Muhafik al-Salti airbase in Jordan. The IRGC claims that the strike successfully destroyed multiple F-15, F-16, F-35 fighter jets of the U.S. Air Force and National Guard deployed at the base. Play this clip. Saturday nights with my wife and friends, Sunday mornings with my kids, those are both non-negotiables. Z-biotics pre-alcohol is the small thing I added that made the whole weekend easier. Z-biotics pre-alcohol probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It was invented by PhD scientists to break down acetaldehyde, a byproduct of drinking alcohol. Pre-alcohol produces an enzyme that is designed to break down this byproduct. Pre-alcohol, your first drink of the night, drink responsibly and enjoy your next-day activities. Z-biotics has sold more than 14 million bottles and earn the trust of thousands, including us. For me, it fits perfectly into the routine. If I'm going out and having a couple drinks, I drink Z-biotics first, haste myself, hydrate, and I can still get up the next morning and spend that time with my family.

That's zbiotics.com/mitus, code mitus for 15% off your first order, M-E-I-D-A-S. I'll show you this B-roll right here. As I noted, the third and fourth waves of ballistic missile strikes by the IRGC Aerospace Force against the US military right here at the Royal Jordanian Air Base is now underway. You'll see by this wave very little resistance, and then as noted, and entirely expected due to the low availability of the interceptors, those Patriot Pactory Interceptor batteries, the US was unable to launch enough interceptors to shoot down all the incoming Iranian ballistic missiles. Hat tip to Babak Tak Vig for aggregating a lot of the stuff. The IRGC's ballistic missiles launch that Moafik al-Sault to play the B-roll, Princesson Air Base and King Faisal Air Base. They're on point. They are hitting their targets. These videos that you're seeing over here were actually recorded in the West Bank showing the Iranian ballistic missiles going towards their targets over there. Take a look at this video showing a successful strike by the IRGC Aerospace Force on King Faisal in Jordan tonight. The Air Base is currently hosting 6C-17A Global Master Heavy Transport Aircrafts of the US Air Force and the Air National Guard. I'll play this video as well showing the ballistic missile launches from Isfahan Iran right here. You can see it for yourself. Now, earlier Marco Rubio said the following about Iran. This came directly from Marco Rubio. Let's play what Marco Rubio had to say. Can you speak about the US strikes on the Iranian tankers and explain what the back and forth has been on? Yeah, the back and forth is pretty straightforward and that is that Iran continues to try to hit U.S. naval ships. And for every time they do that or try to do that, they're going to lose tankers and I think you'll see that again today. More close-up footage of Iranian missiles versus the interceptors and the skies of Jordan you can see for yourself right here as well. And what is Donald Trump doing while all of this is taking place? Moments ago he posted very dumb and unhappy fake news CNN reporter Caitlin Collins held the panel where discussions were all fiction and lies. You would think that CNN, which is suffering terribly in ratings would get rid of their third rate anchors. What else did he post? Trump's unusual role at midterm convention revealed as schedule goes public and Trump wants everybody to know the Republican National Convention tomorrow night in Dallas is really hot. The American Airlines Center home to the Mavericks is totally sold out. We actually know they're trying to give away tickets for free. We don't need people who are up 45 points and have been in office for 30 years. We love them all anyway. I'll be speaking tomorrow night and then I'll be closing it out. Then he attacks Canada. Everyone knows that Canada doesn't let our great dairy farmer sell into the Canadian market and that the only reason Canada makes autos is because of the previous disastrous trade agreements while other presidents were in office. The last trade agreement was you, you idiot. The last agreement was you and then of course his various memes of bombing Carg Island and all of the stuff. Remember earlier today the Trump regime struck those ships off of Carg Island. Iran has then responded as you saw in this video. We'll keep you posted every step of the way. Hit subscribe.
