In Statement, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar said:

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps – the terror arm of the Iranian regime – tried to carry out an attack on Israeli citizens in Cyprus.
Thanks to the activity of the Cypriot security authorities, in cooperation with Israeli security services, the terror attack was thwarted.

Israel thanks Cyprus for its swift and effective actions.

The Iranian criminal regime is deliberately targeting Israeli civilians both in Israel and abroad.

🇺🇸🪖🗺 — GMI: B-2 stealth bombers under the callsigns MYTEE11 FLT and MYTEE21 FLT-estimated to include 4 to 6 stealth bombers-departed Whiteman Air Force Base overnight.

➡️ They are currently en route to Guam, now approaching Hawaiian airspace, supported by USAF aerial refueling tankers.

Key observations:
🔴 Immediate post-takeoff refueling was conducted, which strongly suggests the aircraft may be heavily loaded, potentially with ordnance, indicating operational intent.
🔴 Over the past several days, a deliberate aerial refueling bridge was established, with tankers pre-positioned along the flight path.

🇮🇱❌🇮🇷 — New York Times: Wary of assassination, Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei mostly speaks with his commanders through a trusted aide now, suspending electronic communications to make it harder to find him, three Iranian officials familiar with his emergency war plans say

🇮🇱❌🇮🇷 — New York Times: Ensconced in a bunker, the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has picked an array of replacements down his chain of miliary command in case more of his valued lieutenants are killed.

➡️ And in a remarkable move, the officials add, Ayatollah Khamenei has even named three senior clerics as candidates to succeed him should he be killed, as well — perhaps the most telling illustration of the precarious moment he and his three-decade rule are facing.

➡️ Ayatollah Khamenei has taken an extraordinary series of steps to preserve the Islamic Republic ever since Israel launched a series of surprise attacks last Friday.

🇮🇱❌🇮🇷 — NYT: Succession has long been an exceedingly delicate and thorny topic, seldom discussed publicly beyond speculations and rumors in political and religious circles.

The supreme leader has enormous powers:

He is the commander in chief of the Iran Armed Forces, as well as the head of the judiciary, the legislature and the executive branch.

He is also a Vali Faqih, meaning the most senior guardian of the Shiite faith.

➡️ Ayatollah Khamenei’s son Mojtaba, also a cleric and close to the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, who was rumored to be a front-runner, is not among the candidates, the officials said. Iran’s former conservative president, Ibrahim Raisi, was also considered a front-runner before he was killed in a helicopter crash in 2024.

🇮🇷❌🇮🇱🇺🇸 — Islamic Republic leadership is focused on three major concerns, officials say to NYT:

➡️ A possible assassination attempt on Ayatollah Khamenei
➡️ U.S. entry into the war
➡️ And further crippling strikes on key infrastructure like power plants, refineries, and dams

🇮🇱❌🇮🇷 Spoofed, jammed, blind: Why ships now need digital eyes

Yarden Gross, CEO and Co-founder of maritime technology company Orca AI, reflects on the recent tanker collision in the Strait of Hormuz, arguing that as GPS interference becomes more common, ships urgently need AI-based situational awareness to support crews and maintain safe navigation when traditional tools are compromised.

The recent collision between the tankers Front Eagle and the Adalynn in the Strait of Hormuz is more than a tragic incident – it’s a stark warning to the maritime industry. Both vessels were operating in an area reportedly impacted by intense satellite jamming and AIS spoofing in the days leading up to the crash. The Adalynn is allegedly part of the so-called 'dark fleet' — a loosely connected group of tankers that operate without AIS transponders, often to obscure their movements and evade sanctions. Meanwhile, the VLCC Front Eagle was apparently shown in vessel tracking data to be onshore in Iran two days before the collision, in a strong indication of GPS interference.

🇮🇱❌🇮🇷 btw GPS interference and jamming activity seem to intensify in the Strait of Hormuz today

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱 Oliver Alexander on X: Summary of the significant evidence that the B-2s currently airborne are a strike package heading directly for Iran:

1. Immediate refueling after departing from Whiteman Air Force Base indicates that the aircraft are carry close to their maximum payload.

If not an immediate strike, it is highly likely that the ordnance would have be pre-positioned at Guam or Diego Garcia with C-5 or C-17 transport aircraft in order to save the logistical headache of the additional aerial refueling and airframe stress.

2. If the B-2s continue onward to Iran they will arrive on target a few hours prior to opening of the Futures market at 6PM ET Sunday. This will give the Trump administration time to host a press briefing to calm the markets before they open.

3. KC-135 and KC-46 aircraft have been pre-positioned around the world at the exact bases that would enable the world’s longest (and first circumnavigation) bombing mission. I fully suspect this record would be something that would appeal to Trump.

4. Not launching from Diego Garcia means that the U.S. is not legally required to inform Mauritius of the strike as part of their lease agreement.
