The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

My Uncle was on the same tube line (metropolitan line) which runs through edgewear rd, he wasn’t effected by the tube bombing, but as it said there that no public transport was permitted form then on. At the time he lived in Reading, which is wayyyyy out of London, and somehow got home. My mum was working at Que gardens when it happened, at about 3 pm everyone was just allowed to go home. Eventually she got a call through or a text from my dad saying (he was a reporter) that he was heading into the heart of London to the hospital where the bus blew up my mum was worried sick because there could’ve been more bombs, as well as my Aunt (it was her birthday) my dad got home safe after.
RIP 44 people❤❤

Wasn't it an incredible coincidence that panorama did a program postulating this exact scenario a year before and that Peter Power who was connected with that program volunteered that he was commissioned by an Israeli businessman to carry out bomb drills at the exact three tube stations that were attacked at the exact same time as the attacks were carried out. Further coincidence that Bibi just happened to be in London that same day and George Bush just happened to be in Scotland that day as well.
Again it's weird how the venue for the concert that was attacked on October 7th was only moved to the location near the border only two days before and that Hamas were allowed to attack for 6 hours without resistance.

It’s crazy for me to believe that my dad was working in the building above one of the stations where the attacks happened, the building was evacuated but it was scary to think he was so close to this. He could even hear the bang below the building.

That poor C stock…
So, you're telling me it's because these muslims that we can't bring tripods onto the transport network (BTP think tripods = bomb).
Let me get this straight. 9/11 started at 8:46. 7/7 started at 8:49. What is it with these lot being addicted to terrorism just before 9AM?

December 27, 2023 at 9:44 am
Another inside job just like 9/11.
It amazes me that people actually believe that on the day the UK forces are doing training for bomb attacks on busses that 4 Muslim terrorists actually bombed busses. Strangely it’s a mirror image of 9/11 when forces were doing training for planes crashing into the twin towers. 🤦🏻♂️

NOTICE
The REPEATED & DELIBERATE LIE by the authorities … that it was a major electrical fault?
My wife witnessed the "Aldgate" explosion – she saw the flash, felt the pressure-wave pass over her & the LOUD bang – she ran for the exit.
Phoned me seconds late – & I asked her – "What colour was the explosion"?
She said "Bright Orange"
And I replied: BOMB – that was explosives, probably Nitrates …

My mother almost got on that train. She had slept through her alarm that day and called in to work to say she’d be late, and thank god she did. Had she not missed it she would likely be dead or severely injured. She said that after the fact they did a two minute silence across London and she said for once London was completely dead silent. Rest in peace to all who passed that day ❤️
