    Trump was flying around in his new Qatari jet and changed back to the old Air Force One in UK before launching the new strikes on Iran today.

    President Donald Trump switched his new Qatari-gifted Air Force One for his flight from the NATO summit to the United Kingdom over concerns that the gifted aircraft lacks the secure communications systems and military defenses needed to safely manage a rapidly escalating conflict with Iran, according to two former national security officials familiar with the matter.

    Instead, Trump flew from Ankara to a U.S. base in the United Kingdom in his original Air Force One. It was during that flight that Trump authorized additional strikes against Iran, following through on a threat he had made earlier that day to end the on-again, off-again ceasefire.

    “This plane was built for aesthetics, not mission,” one former national security official said. “We know about its paint, its leather seats. But we don’t know its capabilities.”

    A U.S. Air Force spokesperson declined to state why Trump shifted from the Qatari plane to the earlier Air Force One jet for his flight to the U.K, but said there was no concern about the jet’s abilities.

    Iran parliament speaker MB Ghalibaf says that the US is digging itself deeper.

    The US still hasn’t learned that bullying and breaking its commitments no longer come without a cost. Let me be clear: If you strike, you will be struck back.

    Don’t struggle in vain. You will only sink deeper. The Strait of Hormuz will be reopened only under Iranian arrangements, not through US threats.

    The United States has launched a fresh round of unprovoked military assaults against Iran, with attacks reported on the southeastern port city of Chabahar, where electricity infrastructure, port facilities, and a hospital were affected.

    The attacks were carried out on Wednesday, disrupting electricity supplies across parts of Chabahar after three power transmission lines were knocked out, while projectile fragments also struck Imam Ali Hospital, Iranian media outlets reported.

    Residents of Chabahar and the nearby city of Konarak reported hearing several explosions after strikes carried out by American warplanes.

    Tasnim News Agency, citing eyewitness accounts, said around 10 explosions were heard in the two cities. The agency also reported power outages in parts of Chabahar.

    The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB), the country’s national broadcaster, reported that several projectiles struck Chabahar, causing damage to Shahid Beheshti Port, Kalantari Port, and the city’s Vessel Traffic Control Tower.

    The broadcaster also reported that about half of Chabahar lost electricity following the aggression.

    The managing director of the Sistan and Baluchestan Province’s Electricity Distribution Company said three power transmission lines in Chabahar County were knocked out.

    He, however, said repair teams had already restored two of the damaged lines to service and expected the remaining line to be restored shortly.

    According to some unofficial reports cited by Tasnim, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Navy’s Imam Ali Naval Base in Chabahar was also bombed by US warplanes.

    Tasnim later reported, though, that calm had returned to the area and that no further explosions were being heard.

    The reported attacks coincided with explosions in several other locations across southern Iran.

    Fars News Agency reported that at around 11:15 a.m. (local time), several explosions were heard in Bandar Abbas and Sirik in Hormozgan Province, adding that coastal air defense units in Bandar Abbas and Qeshm Island were engaging hostile targets.

    An IRIB correspondent reported three explosions near Tahrouyi Village in Sirik.

    Separate reports from IRIB and Fars said explosions were also heard on Abu Musa Island, which also belongs to the province, with residents reporting three blasts.

    Fars additionally reported several blasts in the province’s port city of Jask.

    In Bushehr Province, residents of the city of Choghadak reported hearing three relatively powerful explosions, although the exact locations of the blasts had not been determined.

    Meanwhile, the US Central Command that oversees the American troops deployed to the West Asia region, announced that, on the orders of President Donald Trump, it had begun military operations against Iran with the self-described aim of reducing the country’s ability to exercise control over the Strait of Hormuz.

      LEAVE THE FUCKING HOSPITALS ALONE YOU DISGUSTING FUCKS! Seriously! Truly the Great Satan. There is never a good reason, from any position, moral or strategic to bomb a hospital. We know it’s morally wrong cause it’s bombing a hospital, no need to explain. Strategically it has been shown over and over to be a really big source of blowback, the bombing of Al Shifa being a motivating factor behind 9/11. I also dont really see any strategic gain using your expensive ass bombs and planes etc to rain perdition upon the sick and injured and those who are helping them. It’s just pure distilled evil. Demonic doesnt describe cruelty like this. Cut it the fuck out! If the UN didnt suck they would have a task force to blow up a hospital for hospital. America deserves so many 9/11s there wouldnt be a single shed left without a plane on top

      OS613 says that they deleted the tweet because it mistakenly used an old image.

      We posted an image of a strike that circulated in Iranian accounts that was inaccurately attributed to tonight.

      Our mistake…caught and corrected.

      We post hundreds of times a day in real time. We’ll occasionally get one wrong.

      Unfortunately it was widely shared before we had the chance to make the correction.
      What matters is what happens next: we own it, we fix it, we move on.

      It’s a big lesson for us in responsibility that we will certainly learn and grow from. That cannot be overstated.

      Back to work. TYH
