once more, the US and Israel attack Iran, chronicle

On June 13, 2025, Israel conducted a surprise attack against Iran, with airstrikes and terrorist operatives on the ground. The first targets were the families residence of high ranking military officials and top nuclear scientists. On June 22, the US bombed nuclear facilities in Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz. The Iranian peaceful nuclear program was a pretext and the actual goal was for the sake of Israel, a regime change in Iran. But after 12 days of Iranian retaliation with swarms of missiles, the assailants begged for a ceasefire

Second try in January 2026: the US had engineered a dollar shortage in Iran, where the currency fell and inflation exploded. That triggered social demonstrations, first peaceful. Mossad and CIA had also spread weapons and the protests turned into deadly riots. But the Iranian society held on and the West lost its last operatives in the country.
Third try: while Epstein case is exhaling the putrid stench of a decaying West, the US and Israel conduct joint surprise airstrikes against Iran on Saturday, February 28, 2026, when stock markets are closed


The targets are military, nuclear and once more, the homes of leaders, whom the assailants want to assassinate. The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, wise 86-year-old Ali Khamenei, is killed, but the President of the Republic and other officials survive. The State and society hold on, will counterattack

Horror in Minab, southern Iran: because they are daughters of IRGC members, 115 little girls -a provisional toll- are slaughtered in their bombed elementary school


Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev comments
The peacekeeper [Donald Trump] is at it again. The talks with Iran were just a cover. Everyone knew that. So who has more patience to wait for the enemy’s sorry end now? The US is just 249 years old. The Persian Empire was founded over 2500 years ago. Let’s see what happens in 100 years or so…

The retaliation is quick and powerful. Missiles and drones are targeting Israel and US military facilities in Bahrain, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE)


An anonymous official tells The Wall Street Journal that the US has never experienced such a wide-ranging series of simultaneous attacks on its overseas bases before. A few hours after it began, the Western regime–change–through–decapitation operation is already a pathetic failure

At midnight, Israeli time, while Trump is rambling, Iran offers the astonished eyes of the wider world the fairy-like spectacle of fireworks in Tel Aviv

- March 1, 2026
In the early hours of the morning, an Iranian missile penetrates the air defense and strikes once more in Bahrain the base of the US 5th fleet. The footage is immediately iconic
Despite a Sunni monarchy, the vast majority of the local population is Shiite and the witnesses cheer the impact.
Iran raises the Red Flag of revenge over the dome of Jamkaran Mosque, in Qom. Grand Ayatollah Nasser Makarem Shirazi declares Jihad against the US and Israel

This revenge is the religious duty of all Muslims in the world

Only Russian and Chinese ships are allowed to pass; Iran has closed the strait of Hormuz. Palauan tanker Skylight has taken a chance, is burning in the morning. At least 150 ships are still west of the strait

While the belligerents continue to exchange fire, the United States Central Command (CENTCOM) acknowledges that as of 5:30 pm, Tehran time, 3 US service members have been killed and 5 other ones, seriously wounded, since the outbreak of the Western aggression

One example of demonstrations of support to Iran in the region: in the evening in Baghdad, the Iraqi people is trying to storm the US embassy in the Green Zone

Meanwhile in Erbil, a blaze is consuming the US base, after an attack that either Iran or the Iraqi resistance has conducted.
After a first day spent depleting enemy munitions, Iran is henceforth using more modern missiles. The Israeli air defense seems inefficient, despite the launch of up to ten interceptors for one assailant. Haifa, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem are pounded. Meanwhile, Western forces start bombing hospitals in Abuzar and Tehran

According to Israeli site Ynetnews, Donald Trump is already requesting a ceasefire, via Italian diplomats. The aggressor has originally planned a four-to-five-day operation, according to the same article. That new move is the result of his failed regime change project. And the stock markets will open on Monday. But after the assassinations of Ali Khamenei and almost 200 schoolgirls, Iran is so far refusing.

At 9:00 pm, on March 1, London time, 11:00 pm in Cyprus, 12:30 am in Tehran, prime minister Keir Starmer stated
[…] The United States has requested permission to use British bases for that specific and limited defensive purpose. We have taken the decision to accept this request to prevent Iran firing missiles across the region […]

A few minutes after midnight, Cyprus or Lebanon time, 1:30 am in Tehran, a first drone strikes the RAF base in Akrotiri. More are following

At 7:am, local time, their US pilots eject from 3 F-15 jet fighters who fall in Kuwait. According later to the CENTCOM, they were mistakenly shot down by Kuwaiti air defenses

Later in the morning, Iran strikes ARAMCO refinery in Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia. Due to similar constraints QatarEnergy ceases its production of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and associated products. On the contrary, stock markets open on Monday and European gas prices surge 50%

European leaders are pathetic, most are blaming Iran, not Israel, lamenting the retaliation strikes in oil-monarchies and demanding a ceasefire. The champion is Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz who states
Israel, a victim of unjust war, like Ukraine

At 4:00 pm in Florida, 11:00 pm in Jerusalem, 12:45 am in Tehran, the CENTCOM acknowledges 6 killed service members since the beginning of the Western aggression. Meanwhile the US and Israel continue to bomb hospitals in Iran.
- March 3, 2026
Shiite majority clashes with security forces in Bahrain. At 3:00 am, local time, several drones manage to hit the US embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Over the week end, US Marines have shot protestors inside the consulate in Karachi, Pakistan. Later this morning, the diplomatic mission is stormed in Lahore

As Minab buries 168 schoolgirls and 14 teachers whom the aggressors slain on February 28 (cf. supra), Israel redoubles its bombing in Lebanon

While the West is depleting its air defense ammunition, Iran is now using cluster warheads

Energy prices are still rising in Europe. The day is not good either for the economy in the US, where over $1 trillion is wiped out

Only courageous European countries, Belgium and Spain are slamming the Western aggression as illegal. The second is also banning the US from using its military bases. Hence, Donald Trump decides to stop all trade with Spain.
- March 4, 2026
At 2:00 am, Tehran time, Iran claims a hit in the Indian Ocean, 650 km from its coasts, with Qadr [Able] and Talaiyeh [Golden] cruise missiles. The target was a US warship which was refueling

Later, NASA FIRMS satellite monitoring system is showing a thermal anomaly on an Arleigh Burke destroyer in the Arabian Sea

At 5:00 am, local time, 3:00 am in Tehran, a US submarine sinks Iranian Dena frigate in international water. The ship was coming back from an exercise with India. Sri Lankan navy manages to rescue 32 sailors, out of 180

The West is carrying on bombing Tehran, henceforth with rage, in order to liberate the Iranian women. While Israel is also striking Lebanon and invading its southern edge, Hezbollah enters the battle in full swing

The Lebanese Shiite organization is fighting on the ground and targeting Israel with missiles and drones. Israeli Channel 13 quotes an anonymous security source
[…] We were wrong regarding Hezbollah and did not expect them to launch missiles with this range […] We miscalculated the level of force with which Hezbollah joined the battle […]

Despite the Israeli censorship, some amateur videos appear on social media, like that one from Tel Aviv, around 11:30 pm, near the defense ministry. In Shanghai International Energy Exchange, the price of crude oil reaches $100 per barrel.
- March 5, 2026

I answer the questions of a Russian journalist.
Since France announced today that it had authorized the US to use its military bases in the Middle East, they have become, in my opinion, legitimate targets. They are also legitimate from the perspective of Iran, which has already struck military installations in non-belligerent countries, when the facilities were involved in the Western aggression since February 28.
I don’t see so far a world war; the only belligerents are Iran and its Western aggressors: Israel, the US and to lesser extent, their European and Arab lackeys.
The regime-change-through-decapitation operation was already a failure just hours after it began. According to an Israeli journalistic source, Donald Trump even tried, via Italian diplomats, to secure a ceasefire as early as March 1, before the stock market opened the following day.
The struggle has become a war of attrition. The limited size of Israel and the fragility of its infrastructure, the depletion of Western high-end air defense munitions, the blockade of Hormuz strait, constraints on exports from oil monarchies and their worldwide economic consequences… the balance is tipping in favor of Iran.
The only risk of escalation and expansion of the conflict is lying in what Israel and the US might attempt to save face.

At 9:15 pm, Tehran time, the Iranian headquarters state that USS Abraham Lincoln was 340 km from the coasts of Iran, when naval drones attacked. The carrier fled to a distance of 1000 km.
Later, pastors from across the US pray in the White House for Donald Trump, a former friend of Jeffrey Epstein

May God protect our soldiers. May he continue to give our President the strength he needs to lead our great nation. For all these things, in the name of Jesus, we ask you to pour out your blessings upon him
If I was a believer, I would rather pray for the salvation of his soul.

That is Friday morning in the US, where the markets have lost more than $2 trillion since Monday, March 2. Russian weekly newspaper Arguments & Facts has published an article which is including my interview yesterday and an interesting analysis of the air war over the Gulf

Iran has started using Khorramshahr, a ballistic missile and its 1,800 kg cluster warhead, which is carrying 80 sub-munitions. Israel is feeling so hard its impacts that censorship has become illusory

Iran strikes a 13th vessel which is trying to violate the blockade of Hormuz strait. At 5:30 pm, London time, 9:00 pm in Tehran, the price of Brent crude oil reaches $94 per barrel. Beside, European natural gas is 65% more expensive than the past week

Donald Trump is a lunatic. As a new batch of Epstein files discloses his reprehensible behavior, he demands the unconditional surrender of Iran, which replies
The fate of Iran will be decided only by the proud Iranian nation, not Epstein’s gang
- March 7, 2026
As Masoud Pezeshkian, president of Iran, stresses at 5:00 pm, Tehran time, that neighbor Arab countries are hit when attacks on Iran come from their territories, former CIA analyst Larry Johnson assesses that five advanced US radars and three THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) systems have been destroyed in one week in the region. Worth roughly $4 billion, the losses are about 30% of these US air defense tools worldwide. Israeli media are complaining that the Iranian successes are easing the penetration of missiles and drones over Israel

Infuriated by failure and the Iranian statement, the US strikes half an hour later an Iranian freshwater desalination plant on Qeshm island. According to the Red Crescent, the Western aggressors have bombed so far more than 6,500 civilian sites. That attack has come from a US base in Bahrain and Iran retaliates against military targets in the country. I stress that without their own desalination plants, the oil monarchies would have almost no fresh water.
Journalists question the pedophile rapist about that strike; he replies

They are among the most evil people ever on earth, they cut babies’ heads off, they chop women in half, what they did, take a look at October 7. If they’re complaining about a desalination plant, we complain about the fact that they shouldn’t be chopping babies’ heads off, okay
Some gross lies, debunked on multiple occasions, that the Israeli disinformation has spread after the Palestinian operation on October 7, 2023. Moreover, Iranians are not Arabs. Through that racist gossip, the uneducated US president rather offends his allies, Sunni Muslim Arabs like in oil monarchies or Jordan

Israel bombs later oil facilities. Iran retaliates with Kheibar Shekan [Fortress Breaker] ballistic missiles, against Haifa refinery.
- March 8, 2026
With drones, Iran is conducting surgical strikes against specific hotel rooms in several neighbor Arab countries, in order to kill US operatives and service members who have sought refuge there

While Israel is bombing Lebanon, Hezbollah is defending it on the ground

The US authorities suggest through tips to the media that they are discussing with Israel about
sending special forces into Iran to secure its stockpile of highly enriched uranium
A zany project. Imagine how these people are desperate. The Iranian foreign affairs disclose that behind Western boasts, the US continues mandating third countries to mediate a ceasefire with Iran, which is refusing

Even in the West, the imperialist aggression of Iran is not so popular. Imagine in the wide leftover of the world.
The Chicago Mercantile Exchange opens at 4:00 pm, local time, 11:00 pm in Tel Aviv. Shortly after trading resumes, the price of the Brent crude oil is above $100 per barrel, for the first time in more than three and a half years.

His appointment is official at 1:00 am, local time; Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei is the new Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution of Iran.

That man lost his son, wife and mother in the Western attack which assassinated his father on February 28. Imagine how he will conduct that war

Vladimir Putin congratulates Mojtaba Khamenei
Esteemed Mr Hosseini Khamenei,
Please accept my sincere congratulations on your election as the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
At a time when Iran is confronting armed aggression, your work in this high office will undoubtedly require great courage and dedication. I am confident that you will honourably continue your father’s legacy and unite the Iranian people in the face of these severe trials.
For my part, I would like to reaffirm our unwavering support for Tehran and our solidarity with our Iranian friends. Russia has been and will remain a reliable partner of the Islamic Republic.
I wish you every success in addressing the difficult tasks ahead, as well as sound health and strength of spirit.
Respectfully

A Hezbollah missile dismantles Wadi Aila (Haila, for the Israeli authorities) satellite communication center, south of Tel Aviv

Around 1:00 pm, East Coast time, 8:30 pm in Tehran, an anonymous Israeli official tells the Washington Post
I’m not sure it’s our interest to fight until the regime is toppled. Nobody wants a never-ending story
Later Donald Trump, to CBS
I think the Iran war is pretty much complete
But Iran launches a new wave of ballistic missiles and drones against Israeli and US targets. A very perceptive internet user comments on X
It seems like Israel is blocking videos more than missiles

Ukraine is jealous. According to its defense ministry, the Western operation against Iran has consumed more Patriot air defense missiles in three days than the number allocated to Ukraine since February 24, 2022

Over the day, Iran has stopped three ships which were attempting to cross the strait of Hormuz

After dusk, an oil storage depot is still burning in Salalah, Oman. According to Iran, that attack was an Israeli false flag

Almost at the same time, right before midnight in Iraq, naval drones (USV) strike off Umm Qasr two foreign tankers, Marshallese-flagged SafeSea Vishnu and Maltese-flagged Zefyros

In 53 before Yeshua Ben Yosef, Marcus Licinius Crassus hoped that Persia would run out of arrows. Perhaps Donald Trump expected on February 28 that Iran would quickly run out of missiles and drones, but did not foresee his epic fail

In Tehran, an Israeli attack kills Ali Larijani, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council.
In the US, Special Operation Forces veteran Joe Kent resigns from his position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center

I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby

That was painful for a real counter-terrorism professional to work for a terrorist government, ally in the Middle East of terrorist entities like Israel and al Qaeda

According to Reuters, the US is encouraging its al Qaeda ally in the West-friendly jihadist emirate of Syria to consider sending forces in Lebanon, against Hezbollah

Iran buries Ali Larijani, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, whom an Israeli attack killed in Tehran the day before. French businessman and conservative influencer Laurent Ozon writes

This story somewhat sums up our world for the past 50 years. An American real estate tycoon who became President through deception of his people, author of « The Art of the Deal », has assassinated an Iranian leader and philosopher on behalf of an Israeli supremacist. That leader had written « The Mathematical Method in Kant’s Philosophy », « Metaphysics and the Exact Sciences in Kant’s Philosophy » and « Reason and Tranquility in Governance ». All that with the support of every horde of malignant, enraged and uncultured lackeys that the West is numbering. The gates of hell are open. They will close
Around noon, Tehran time, with approval of Donald Trump, Israel bombs four plants which in Bandar Kangan region, are processing gas from South Pars, the largest field in the world, located in the Gulf, between Qatar and Iran

At 5:30 pm, East Coast time, 11:30 pm in Tel Aviv and 1:00 am in Tehran, the Wall Street Journal reads that the US president approved the Israeli bombing of Iranian gas processing plants but now opposes further attacks on energy infrastructure

In the meantime, $800 billion have been wiped from US share market value.

They seize documents and set ablaze the building

According to anonymous officials, via the Wall Street Journal, two ballistic missiles would have targeted Diego Garcia, more than 4,000 km from Iran, in Chagos Islands’ morning. Fortunately, the colonial British base was not hit. The Israeli propaganda is exploiting the information as an evidence that Europe could be attacked. But later, Iran denies such a strike

At 5:00 pm, East Coast time, 12:30 am, March 21, in Tehran, NBC reads that the former draft dodger, for fear of fighting in Vietnam,

is weighing whether to send possibly thousands of US troops into Iran as he looks for a way to achieve some of his key goals and end the war
But as usual, nothing is certain.
- March 21, 2026
So, maybe boots on the ground. Meanwhile in Baghdad, around 1:00 am, local time, the Iraqi resistance is once more pounding Camp Victory

Ironically, in an attempt to stabilize the energy markets, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent issues at 7:10 pm, 2:40 am in Tehran, a temporary license, which for one month, is lifting sanctions on Iranian oil products

But new humiliation for the US hustlers: Iran has already notified that it has no surplus crude oil to offer to international markets.
At 12:30 pm, local time, the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (SEA) reports that in the morning, the West has attacked Natanz nuclear plant. According to Israeli media, one or several bunker busters have been dropped

Russia denounces that attack and calls for an international investigation. As a restrained retaliation, Iran starts striking at 5:00 pm, Tel Aviv time, Arad and Dimona settlements, where the scientists of the Israeli nuclear program are living

Later in the evening, the G7, a club of lackeys, condemns Iran, not the aggressors. Confirmation that Israel and its stooges are badly hurt.
The Iranian missiles seem inexhaustible and the Western air defense, henceforth unable to intercept them. Moreover, the West is right to regard the Iranian threat over oil and gas resources in the Gulf as a true nuclear deterrence

The Western defeat is evident; India and Japan have started paying in Chinese yuan the right for their oil tankers to cross the strait of Hormuz

In order to make peace, Iran is demanding full US military withdrawal from Iraq, Syria and the oil monarchies; lifting of all economic sanctions; $500 billion in compensation for decades of economic war.
- March 22, 2026
At 7:45 pm, March 21, East Coast time, 3:15 am in Tehran, in a new rant on social media, Donald Trump, maybe drunk, threatens to destroy all Iranian power plants if Iran does not loosen its control over the strait of Hormuz within 48 hours. So, no more boots on the ground ? Targeting the Iranian energy grid is not a good idea and that sole statement will have a terrible impact on markets.
No surprise: the Iranian headquarters spokesman replies that in such a case, all US and affiliated energy, information technology and desalination infrastructure will be struck across the region

Angry toward the successful Iranian retaliation in Arad and Dimona, after the Western attack against Natanz nuclear plant, hordes of Israelis attack Arab villages overnight in the West Bank, where they set ablaze cars and homes.
No AI this time, Benjamin Mileikowsky has emerged from his secret Bunker. Later in the morning, he contemplates his work in Arad, some dividends of his strategic fantasy, but still an insignificant anecdote, compared to the genocide in Gaza

New PR strategy? The Israeli supremacists and their Western supporters haven’t been this whiny in a long time, would be victims of the war they have unleashed. How indecent. How mean. From Arad, Mileikowsky calls on world leaders to join the aggression against Iran. I don’t understand the need of reinforcements; Donald Trump said they had won

Meanwhile, thanks to Hezbollah, an Israeli Merkava is burning in southern Lebanon.

The collapse of global stock markets begins in Japan and South Korea. At 7:00 am, East Coast time, 2:30 pm in Tehran, Donald Trump announces on social media the postponement of scheduled attacks against the Iranian energy grid and in order to justify that renunciation, invents imaginary negotiations, that Iran denies. Later in a press conference, he blames Secretary of War Pete Hegseth for the aggression against Iran

Iran is pounding Tel Aviv and manages in the morning to wreck the house of Meirav Ben Ari, an Israeli centrist politician, famous for her supremacist comment in October 2023 about the slain children in Gaza

After the West bombed the day before intelligence and counter-terrorism headquarters in Baghdad, the Iraqi government officially allows the PMU (cf. supra, March 12) -250,000 men- and army -200,000 men- to defend.
- March 25, 2026
While he is fantasizing in public about imaginary negotiations, Donald Trump has actually passed to Iran, via third countries, a 15-point peace plan, which would start with a one-month ceasefire and would end the Iranian support to resistance in Gaza (Hamas) and Lebanon (Hezbollah)

Worried about the impact on oil market, Trump is trying to reach a ceasefire since day 2 (cf. supra, March 1) of the Western aggression. Iran already articulated publicly its peace conditions (cf. supra, March 21) and rejects the US proposal.

How would it not be a war crime to strike Iran’s bridges and power plants?
The president of the US replies
Because they killed 45,000 people in the last month [a gross lie]. They killed protestors [Iran cracked down on rioters whom Mossad and US intelligence were arming, what Trump acknowledges]. They are animals and we have to stop them. We can’t let them have a nuclear weapon, very simple

At 6:30 pm, April 7, East Coast time, 2:00 am, April 8, in Tehran, Donald Trump pusses out and 90 minutes before the deadline, postpones once more his threat of terrorist attack and genocide.
A ceasefire is enforced and negotiation would begin in Pakistan, where peace would be discussed on the basis of ten Iranian conditions like for example lifting of sanctions, payment of reparations for the Western attack and Iranian control over the strait of Hormuz. The Supreme National Security Council of Iran states
In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
It is hereby announced to the noble, great and heroic nation of Iran:
The enemy has suffered an undeniable, historic and crushing defeat in its dishonorable, illegal and criminal war against the Iranian nation. By the grace of the pure and sacred blood of the martyred leader of the Islamic Revolution, Grand Ayatollah Imam Khamenei (peace be upon him), the measures of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei (may God protect him), the valor and courage of the warriors of Islam on the fronts and especially the historic, enduring and epic presence of you, the dear nation, on the scene from the very first days of the war, Iran has achieved a great victory and forced criminal America to accept its 10-point plan, in which America has principally committed to:
non-aggression, Iran’s continued control over the Strait of Hormuz, acceptance of enrichment, the lifting of all primary and secondary sanctions, the termination of all UN Security Council and Board of Governors resolutions, payment of reparations to Iran, the withdrawal of American combat forces from the region and the cessation of war on all fronts — including against the heroic Islamic Resistance of Lebanon.
We congratulate that victory to all the people of Iran and emphasize that until the details of this victory are finalized, there remains a need for steadfastness and prudence from officials and for the preservation of unity and solidarity among the Iranian people.
Islamic Iran, together with the brave mujahideen of the Resistance in Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen and occupied Palestine, has dealt blows to the enemy over the past 40 days that the historical memory of the world will never forget. Iran and the Axis of Resistance, as representatives of honor and humanity against the most savage enemies of mankind, have, after a historic battle, taught them an unforgettable lesson and have so thoroughly shattered their forces, capabilities, infrastructure and all their political, economic, technological and military capital that the enemy has now fallen into disintegration and desperation and sees no path before it other than surrender to the will of the great Iranian nation and the noble Axis of Resistance.
On the first day, the criminal enemies of Iran launched this unjust war, they imagined they would achieve complete military dominance over Iran in a short time and would force Iran to submit by creating political and social instability. They thought Iran’s missile and drone fire would be quickly extinguished and did not believe Iran could respond so powerfully beyond its borders and across the entire region. The malicious global Zionism had convinced the foolish American president that this war would finish Iran off and that, by eliminating this last bastion of humanity, they could henceforth commit any crime against anyone they wished with ease. They dreamed of partitioning beloved Iran and plundering its oil and wealth and ultimately leaving Iranians adrift in chaos, instability and insecurity for years to come.
The brave warriors of Islam and their courageous allies in the Axis of Resistance — even though their hearts were wounded and shattered by the martyrdom of their Imam — placed their trust in Almighty God and following the example of the Master and Lord of Martyrs, resolved once and for all to teach these enemies a historic lesson, to exact revenge for all previous crimes and to create conditions so that the enemy would forever abandon any thought of aggression against beloved Iran and taste the full bitterness of humiliation and disgrace before the great Iranian nation.
With this strategy and relying on the unprecedented political and social unity that had been established in the country, Iran and the Resistance launched one of the heaviest hybrid battles in history against America and the Zionist regime and during this period, achieved every objective they had designed for this battle.
Iran and the Resistance nearly completely destroyed America’s military machine in the region, dealt crushing and deep blows to the vast infrastructure and assets the enemy had established and stationed around the region over years in preparation for this war against Iran, inflicted massive regional casualties on the criminal American army, struck devastating and crushing blows against the enemy’s forces, infrastructure, assets and properties within the occupied territories and so tightened the noose on the enemy on all fronts that not only were none of the enemy’s primary objectives realized, but the enemy understood approximately 10 days after the start of the war that it would have absolutely no ability to win this war — and for this reason began efforts to establish contact with Iran and request a ceasefire through various channels and methods.
The noble Iranian nation should know that, by the grace of the struggle of their children and their historic presence on the scene, the enemy has been begging for over a month for the cessation of Iran and the Resistance’s fearsome fire, but the country’s officials — because it had been decided from the very beginning that the war would continue until objectives were achieved, including the enemy’s regret and desperation and the removal of long-term threats to the country — gave negative responses to all these requests and the war continued until today, which is the fortieth day. Furthermore, Iran has so far rejected several deadlines presented by the American president and continues to emphasize that it places no importance whatsoever on any type of deadline from the enemy.
We now bring glad tidings to the great nation of Iran that nearly all war objectives have been achieved and your brave children have dragged the enemy into a historic state of helplessness and a lasting defeat. Iran’s historic decision, which enjoys the unified backing of the entire nation, is to continue this battle for as long as necessary, until its great achievements are consolidated and new security and political equations are established in the region, based on the acceptance of the power and sovereignty of Iran and the Resistance.
In this regard and in accordance with the guidance of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei (may God protect him), and the approval of the Supreme National Security Council and given Iran and the Resistance’s upper hand on the battlefield and the enemy’s inability to carry out its threats despite all its claims and the official acceptance of all the rightful demands of the Iranian people, it has been decided that negotiations shall be held in Islamabad, to finalize the details, so that within a maximum of 15 days, Iran’s victory on the battlefield will also be consolidated in political negotiations.
In this regard, Iran, while rejecting all plans presented by the enemy, drafted a 10-point plan and submitted it to the American side through Pakistan, emphasizing fundamental points including: controlled passage through the Strait of Hormuz in coordination with Iran’s Armed Forces — which grants Iran a unique economic and geopolitical position; the necessity of ending the war against all components of the Axis of Resistance — which would constitute a historic defeat of the aggression by the child-killing Israeli regime; the departure of American combat forces from all bases and positions in the region; the establishment of a secure transit protocol in the Strait of Hormuz that guarantees Iran’s dominance according to the agreed protocol; full payment of reparations to Iran according to estimates; the lifting of all primary and secondary sanctions and Board of Governors and Security Council resolutions; the release of all of Iran’s blocked assets and properties abroad; and finally, the ratification of all these items in a binding UN Security Council resolution. It should be noted that the adoption of this resolution would convert all these agreements into binding international law and would constitute a major diplomatic victory for the Iranian nation.
The Honorable Prime Minister of Pakistan has now informed Iran that the American side, despite all its apparent threats, has accepted these principles as the basis for negotiations and has submitted to the will of the Iranian nation. On this basis, at the highest level, it was decided that Iran shall conduct negotiations with the American side in Islamabad for a period of two weeks, solely on the basis of these principles. It is emphasized that this does not mean the end of the war and Iran will only accept the end of the war when — given the acceptance of Iran’s principles in the 10-point plan — the details are also finalized in negotiations.
These negotiations will begin with complete distrust of the American side starting Friday, Farvardin 21 [April 10] in Islamabad, and Iran will allocate two weeks for these negotiations. This time frame is extendable by mutual agreement. It is necessary that during this period, complete national unity be maintained and victory celebrations continue with strength. The current negotiations are national negotiations and a continuation of the battlefield and it is necessary that all people, elites and political groups trust and support this process — which is under the supervision of the Leader of the Revolution and the highest levels of the system — and strongly refrain from any divisive commentary. If the enemy’s surrender on the battlefield is transformed into a decisive political achievement in the negotiations, we shall celebrate this great historic victory together; otherwise, we shall fight side by side on the battlefield until all the demands of the Iranian nation are met.
Our hands are on the trigger and the moment the slightest error is made by the enemy, it will be answered with full force
At 4:50 am, Islamabad time, 7:50 pm, April 7, in Washington DC, Prime Minister of Pakistan Shehbaz Sharif confirms
With the greatest humility, I am pleased to announce that the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States of America, along with their allies, have agreed to an immediate ceasefire everywhere including Lebanon and elsewhere, EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
I warmly welcome the sagacious gesture and extend deepest gratitude to the leadership of both the countries and invite their delegations to Islamabad on Friday, 10th April 2026, to further negotiate for a conclusive agreement to settle all disputes.
Both parties have displayed remarkable wisdom and understanding and have remained constructively engaged in furthering the cause of peace and stability. We earnestly hope, that the ‘Islamabad Talks’ succeed in achieving sustainable peace and wish to share more good news in coming days!
[…] an immediate ceasefire everywhere including Lebanon […]

Iran has won and while the US is attempting to disguise its strategic defeat, Israel is fuming. For Russia, Dmitry Medvedev comments
It’s not clear how the truce between Washington and Tehran will play out. But one thing is certain – Iran has tested its nuclear weapons [cf. supra, March 21]. It is called the Strait of Hormuz. Its potential is inexhaustible

But once more, despite a ceasefire, Israel bombs with rage and boasts about it on social media. More than 250 Lebanese are slaughtered in a few minutes, according to a preliminary Civil Defense toll. Iran warns
Within a few hours, if the firing does not stop in Lebanon, the air and missile unit will bomb Tel Aviv
The old pedophile rapist is so substandard that he is not even able to impose a ceasefire on Israel. Polish settler Mileikowsky is actually the boss. At 2:00 pm, East Coast time, 9:30 pm in Tehran, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt states that the White House threw in the garbage the 10 points on which the US, Pakistan and Iran agreed less than 24 hours before.

At 12:30 pm, East Coast time, 9:30 pm in Islamabad, while the point is not resolved, the CENTCOM attempts to misinform with a wrong statement
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces began setting conditions for clearing mines in the Strait of Hormuz, April 11, as two U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyers conducted operations.
USS Frank E. Peterson (DDG 121) and USS Michael Murphy (DDG 112) transited the Strait of Hormuz and operated in the Arabian Gulf as part of a broader mission to ensure the strait is fully clear of sea mines previously laid by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.
« Today, we began the process of establishing a new passage and we will share this safe pathway with the maritime industry soon to encourage the free flow of commerce », said Adm. Brad Cooper, commander of CENTCOM.
The Strait of Hormuz is an international sea passage and an essential trade corridor that supports regional and global economic prosperity. Additional U.S. forces, including underwater drones, will join the clearance effort in the coming days

Actually, around noon, local time, 1:00 pm in Islamabad, from a base on the eastern coast of the UAE, USS Michael Murphy, an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, had entered the strait, but withdrawn under threat of being targeted

Washington was demanding what it had not achieved on the battlefield: lifting of Iranian control over the strait of Hormuz and cession of nuclear materials. The US representatives had already lost the war but tried to dictate their terms in Islamabad. Incredible arrogance

Still obsessed with Hormuz, Donald Trump decides later to blockade the blockade. He orders the US Navy to board the ships which are paying fee to Iran and are crossing the strait.
Most of these ships are Chinese. He is unable to defeat Iran, then, the strategic genius gets the idea to also confront China and Russia.
- April 13, 2026
Chinese defense minister Dong Jun states
Our ships are moving in and out of the waters of the Strait of Hormuz. We have trade and energy agreements with Iran. We will respect and honour them and expect others not to meddle in our affairs. Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz and it is open for us

- April 15, 2026
Despite the US purported blockade, several ships sail through the strait of Hormuz, from and to Iranian ports.
