According to an article today from The Telegraph, a senior Iranian military official has stated that Iran will attack the U.S-U.K joint base at Naval Support Facility Diego Garcia, roughly 2,000 miles from Iran in the Indian Ocean, with ballistic missiles and drones in response to any kind of strike launched from the base by the United States.

This comes following the deployment of between 5 and 9 B-2 “Spirit” Long-Range Strategic Stealth Bombers from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri to Diego Garcia over the past week, as rumors fly about possible future strikes against Iran’s nuclear and long-range missile facilities, after a letter earlier this month by U.S. President Donald J. Trump gave Iran a “two-month deadline” to make a new nuclear deal with the United States.

The Iranian official further added to the threat to attack Diego Garcia by also threatening to attack Turkey and countries hosting U.S. bases in the Middle East, stating, “There will be no distinction in targeting British or American forces if Iran is attacked from any base in the region or within the range of Iranian missiles. When the time comes, it won’t matter whether you’re an American, British, or Turkish soldier – you will be targeted if your base is used by Americans.”

Lithuanian dredgers and water pumps are continuing to clear mud away from the site of the sunken U.S. Army M88A2 “Hercules” Armored-Recovery Vehicle (ARV) at the Pabradė Training Ground in eastern Lithuania, as recovery operations continue for the bodies of 4 American Soldiers with the 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team (1ABCT), 3rd Infantry Division from Fort Stewart, Georgia. Polish and U.S. dive teams from Spain are currently preparing to dive down over 16ft into the muddy water to reach the ARV, where they will attach hooks to eventually extract the M88 and the bodies of its crew.
