🚨🇮🇷 Iran’s new supreme leader allegedly launches an X account An account appearing to represent Iran’s new supreme leader has surfaced under the handle @Rahbarenghelab_ . The name translates roughly to “Leader of the Revolution” rather than the usual English title “Supreme Leader.” In Persian, rahbar means leader or guide, while enghelab means revolution.






UPDATE 20260121-0100Z Ok so we've got a LOT of tankers on the move (it's getting messy): Moron, Spain RCH037 57-1468 RCH038 57-2603 RCH039 58-0052 RCH040 61-0299 Al-Udeid, Qatar RCH800 63-8872 RCH801 59-1498 RCH802 59-1488 RCH803 ? Mildenhall, UK RCH891 61-0267 RCH892 63-8034 POTUS Support for Davos ABATE11 ?

Resurrecting the "Midnight Hammer" Route: Tankers Cross to Spain to Pave the Way for the "Spirit" (B-2) — Talal Nahle Analysis of the New File (23:31 GMT – 03:01 Wednesday AM Tehran Time) in conjunction with the critical meteorological data previously noted: We are now witnessing a "repetition of the horror scenario." The movement of refueling tankers from California to Spain is a "carbon copy" of the events that transpired during the previous "Midnight Hammer" operation. Here are the details: 1. NOTAMs: "Cleaning the Corners" * Status: No new NOTAMs issued. * Cancellation: One NOTAM was removed (B0011/26). * Location: Northwest Iran (near Tabriz). * Content: Previously covered Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) activity. * Interpretation: Removing drone activity from this sensitive border corner may aim to clear the airspace for incoming attack aircraft (or infiltrating drones) approaching from the Turkey/Northern Iraq vector. Alternatively, Iranian drones may simply be "hiding" to avoid being targeted. 2. Tankers to Spain: "The Bomber Bridge" This is tonight’s most significant development. The deployment of 4 aerial refueling tankers (KC-135) from March ARB (California) to Morón Air Base (Spain) carries a singular strategic implication: * Why Spain? Morón Air Base is the primary fulcrum for refueling strategic stealth bombers (B-2 Spirit) as they cross the Atlantic from Missouri (Whiteman AFB) to strike targets in the Middle East and return (without landing). * Historical Link: As noted, this specific route (California → Spain) was utilized to support bombers during Operation "Midnight Hammer" (June 2025). Repeating this route today suggests that B-2 stealth bombers may be airborne right now or preparing for takeoff to launch a direct strike from US soil. 3. Jordan: Shifting to an "Engagement Base" * The arrival of additional C-17 aircraft (bringing the total to 24), alongside the presence of A-10 Thunderbolts and F-15Es at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base, transforms it from a support hub into an offensive base. * F-15E: For deep strike interdiction. * A-10: For Close Air Support (CAS) and armor hunting. Their presence anticipates ground engagements, Iranian attempts to maneuver armored forces, or CSAR (Combat Search and Rescue) operations to protect pilots in the event of downing. 4. Return of Aircraft to Al Udeid (Qatar): Smart Camouflage The return of aircraft previously evacuated to Al Udeid Air Base may appear "reassuring," but militarily it suggests: * Restoring Readiness: The aircraft returned because the base has been secured (with additional defensive systems) and their participation is required for the offensive. * Deception: Creating the illusion that "the crisis is over," while the initial strike wave will actually be delivered by long-range bombers (B-2s), not the regional assets. Strategic Conclusion (Dawn, Wednesday, January 21): The features of the "American Pincer" are now complete: * From the West (Atlantic): An air bridge for Stealth Bombers (B-2) is currently being constructed via Spain (Tankers). * From the East (Indian Ocean): The USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group is approaching silently (AIS Off). * From the Center (Jordan): A tactical "claw" comprised of F-15s and A-10s.
