In a fresh wave of retaliatory airstrikes, Iran’s Army targeted US AWACS and refueling aircraft stationed at Tel Aviv airport, along with its radar and electronic warfare sites in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
In a statement on Wednesday, the Army said the attacks came in response to the brutal air assaults by “the Zionist regime and the criminal United States” against the country, which continue to target residential and civilian areas.
“Since dawn today,” it said, the Armed Forces have “targeted with drone strikes the US AWACS and refueling aircraft stationed at Ben Gurion Airport, as well as radar sites for detecting and tracking missiles and combat drones, and electronic warfare sites used to counter combat drones in the UAE.”
According to the statement, powerful Arash-2 drones with a flight range of 2,000 kilometers were used in this wave of attacks.

The Islamic Republic of Iran’s Army reiterated that the Armed Forces will stand firm to the very end to make the aggressors regret the innocent blood they have shed across the country.
Since the US and Israel launched their joint military aggression against Iran on February 28, the Army has continued its drone attacks on US bases in the region and military sites in the occupied territories.
According to reports and satellite imagery, the sites have sustained serious damage.
More than one month into the unprovoked war on the country, Iran’s retaliatory strikes on US bases across the region have caused an estimated $800 million in damages.
Notable among these strikes is the damage to a pivotal US Air Force E-3 Sentry AWACS command and control plane during the March 27 missile and drone attack on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia.
According to Air & Space Forces Magazine, this specific attack also injured more than 10 service members and damaged several aerial refueling tankers.
Military analysts describe the loss of these “flying radars” as a “big deal” that has significantly crippled Washington’s ability to manage the battlespace in the Persian Gulf.
Beyond the AWACS and tankers, Iran’s attacks have damaged or destroyed radar systems, a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missile defense system, and Reaper drones in attacks on US bases in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Jordan, and Kuwait.


The migrant crisis in Britain’s cities is getting worse every year
Across Britain, London in particular, but all local governments are facing severe financial crises as rising costs collide with limited funding. Some councils have already declared effective bankruptcy, while others are struggling to maintain basic public services
The migrant bill is £40 billion and rising. this has caused years of budget constraints, increasing demand, and structural funding problems have pushed many cities to the edge
investigators have looked at why migrants are being imported and why this crisis is happening and what it means for the future of our own people and governance in Britain
Given the Iranian’s clear aptitude for exploiting media, I wonder why we have seen no drone footage of their great successes hammering the jewish state?..
Piss poor estimate , in the first days of war the Iranians took out a radar system valued on it’s own at 1 billion dollars add to that the awac cut in half at $500 million then i’d say merica is well on its way to fiscal ruin good job Iran
The BBC’s future: who decides how to survive and what news means?

Appointing Matt Brittin, a former Google executive, as BBC director general is smarter than critics admit.
Although he was on the board of the Guardian’s publisher, Mr Brittin was no journalist. He does understand platforms, scale and digital audiences.
Director generals come under scrutiny when crises hit, like this week’s sacking of Scott Mills over his
“personal conduct with underage boys”. It then emerged that police previously questioned the Radio 2 DJ over separate allegations, of serious sexual offences, closing the case due to lack of evidence. But the role’s underlying challenge is facing future threats to the corporation’s audience. it turns out Stephen Fry has an extensive criminal record with boys
Now today we have news reader Ben Thompson unmasked
we ask how many more perverts are hiding out at the BBC
no wonder folk wont buy a licence
THIS IS ISRAEL’S
WAR, NOT IRAN’a
I would assume that is 800 billion, not million, since one of those AWACS can cost as much as 700 million alone, and some of the radar stations cost upwards of one billion dollars. It is refreshing to see bullies getting bloodied and knocked down, AND… I am at my happiest when they don’t get back up again… ever.

Now in extra safe unknown tunnels & quick to launch via road mobile launchers carrying this weapon that can’t be preemptively targeted / may or may not be equiped with a nuclear payload / Tehran & Pyongyang did not specify that….
