For now what’s confirmed is that three explosions took place about 40-50 minutes ago, and the source is being investigated by the authorities.

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 UPDATE: The news of two IRGC Navy speedboats being targeted is from the past 48 hours, according to a source, and publication was delayed in order not to put pressure on the ongoing negotiations process.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump on Truth Social:

‘The Enriched Uranium (Nuclear Dust!) will either be immediately turned over to the United States to be brought home and destroyed or, preferably, in conjunction and coordination with the Islamic Republic of Iran, destroyed in place or, at another acceptable location, with the Atomic Energy Commission, or its equivalent, being witness to this process and event. Thank you for your attention to this matter!’

@Middle_East_Spectator

— NOTE: This is the first time Trump has openly admitted that Iran may not transfer the uranium stockpile abroad

I suspect that the wording ‘destroyed’ will also later change to ‘diluted’ (which has been Iran’s proposal all along).

It seems Iran is getting what it wants; NO transfer of uranium to a third country, but rather diluting it to 20% and 3.67% purity inside Iran.

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: SNN clarifies the event of destroying two IRGC-N speedboats took place on Monday night (last night), several hours ago, which has led to the currently ongoing ‘clashes’ after Iran responded now by firing missiles at U.S. warships
