Good morning. Once again, everything SAA-affiliated media reported turned out to be completely and utterly false.

🇮🇷| NEW: Iran successfully sent into space its heaviest-ever payload using the Simorgh SLV rocket carrier including an advanced module for transferring satellites to higher-altitude orbits.

The Saman-1 transfer module, along with a CubeSat and a research payload were successfully placed in an elliptical orbit with a high point of 410 km.

The Simorgh SLV, a 2-stage liquid-fuelled satellite launch vehicle, fully domestically built.

This marks its 8th launch, achieving a new milestone.

— 🇮🇷 NEW: Seda va Sima (صدا و سيما), one of Iran's largest national broadcasters, has stopped using the word 'terrorists' and is now calling HTS an 'armed group'

— 🇸🇾 Syrian Ministry of Defense:

The news on the terrorist pages about the army's withdrawal from Homs is not true. We confirm that the Syrian Arab Army is present in Homs and its countryside, and it is deployed on fixed and solid defensive lines.

It has been reinforced with additional large forces equipped with various types of equipment and weapons. Our forces are ready to repel any terrorist assault.'

@Middle_East_Spectator

They said this about Aleppo, then Saraqib, then Khan Shaykhun, and then Hama.

Homs is the last line of defense before Damascus and the Lebanese border.

It has to hold, this is a simple reality.

— ❗️🇸🇾 NEW: SAA units are withdrawing from Al-Qurya and other places along the entire Deir Ezzor axis

@Middle_East_Spectator

SAA-affiliated media is now saying Russia 'reminded tourists of the opportunity to leave', 'but it did not actually ASK citizens to leave'

No comment.

🇸🇾🇯🇴⚡️Jordan officially announces the closure of the border with Syria

🔸@TheSimurgh313

Remember, this was the situation in Syria back in 2016.

We are currently in a situation that is at least as bad, if not much worse.

But we came back from it last time. With faith and trust in God, inshaAllah, we will this time too.
