President Donald J. Trump has received multiple intelligence reports indicating that the Iranian government’s position is weakening, possibly being at its weakest point since the Shah was overthrown during the 1979 Islamic Revolution, according to several people familiar with the information who spoke to the New York Times.

The WSJ newspaper reports that the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln and its escort ships have arrived in the Middle East. According to a U.S. defense source, it is sailing with three destroyers capable of launching Tomahawk missiles. Additionally, according to American sources and official data, Washington has deployed F-15E fighter jets at a base in Jordan.

The IDF eliminated terrorists from the Hezbollah terrorist organization who were working to restore an underground site in southern Lebanon

The IDF attacked and eliminated yesterday (Monday) terrorists from the Hezbollah terrorist organization while they were operating at an underground site of the Hezbollah terrorist organization in the Nabatieh area in southern Lebanon.

The activity of Hezbollah terrorists to restore the site constitutes a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon and a threat to the State of Israel.

The IDF will continue to act to remove any threat to the State of Israel.

News 14 | The Ayatollah regime's war of consciousness: Iran steps up its attempt to shape a narrative of a fake victory

Trump about Iran:

Right now, a beautiful fleet is moving beautifully towards Iran, so we will see.

I hope they reach an agreement. I hope they reach an agreement.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu yesterday on a press conference. We will build an independent arms industry. Many soldiers died because of Bidens weapon emmargo:

We paid a heavy price in the war, many fell because Gaza was booby-trapped and we lacked enough ammunition, partly due to an embargo.

I decided this must never happen again. Israel must build a strong, independent arms industry.

Just as we freed ourselves from American economic aid and strengthened our economy, we must now reach security maturity.

Within a decade, I intend to end dependence on the financial part of U.S. military aid and move from aid to partnership.

We will pursue joint development and production of advanced weapons with the U.S. and other partners like India and Germany. This will ensure independence, steady supply, and stronger alliances.

Our goal is simple: never lack weapons again.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the kingdom’s de facto leader, told Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian during a call on Tuesday, that Saudi Arabia would not allow its airspace or territory to be used by the United States for an attack against Iran, following a similar statement issued earlier this week by the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The Financial Times reports:

Israel is preparing to open talks with the Trump administration on a new 10-year security agreement to replace the current agreement that expires in 2028.

According to the report, Israel seeks to gradually reduce direct financial aid from the U.S. (about $3.8 billion per year) and shift focus to joint development of weapons systems and defense projects.

Official sources note that strategic partnership, technological cooperation, and U.S. military support – such as air defense systems and bombers – are more important than direct financial grants.

Trump:

A massive fleet is moving towards Iran.

This fleet is larger and is led by the large aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln, bigger than the fleet sent to Venezuela. Like Venezuela, this fleet is ready, willing, and able to carry out its mission quickly and violently if necessary.

I hope Iran quickly "comes to the negotiating table" and makes a fair and just agreement - without nuclear weapons - that is good for all parties. Time is running out, this is really critical!

As I told Iran before, make a deal! They did not, and the "midnight hammer" operation was carried out, a major destruction in Iran.

The next attack will be much worse! Don't let this happen again.
