Russia, Assad and Iran allow ISIS to thrive in Syria. These grey spots in Badia dessert are ISIS held territory. They will continue to feed fighters into AANES and threaten US. If SDF is willing we should move to occupy all Badia. Connect to Al Tanf & secure supply line. @WHNSC

Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi paid a solidarity visit to the United Arab Emirates and Qatar today, following what he called "Iran's sinful and unjustified" attacks on the region. Sisi declared that the national security of the Arab Gulf States "is an extension of Egyptian national security, affirming Egypt's readiness to provide all necessary support to maintain the security and stability of the GCC states."

The Prime Minister of Qatar even now suggests that Trump is the pathetic servant of the Russian dictator. "Because everyone knows who the main beneficiary of this war is, and dragging the whole region into this conflict is."

🚨BREAKING: Qatar just declared force majeure on LNG contracts to Italy, Belgium, South Korea, and China. For up to 5 years. Here's what the CEO just told In an exclusive interview with Reuters, Qatar's Energy Minister and CEO of QatarEnergy just confirmed the damage from Iran's attack on Ras Laffan. It's worse than anyone thought. → 2 out of 14 LNG trains damaged → 1 of 2 gas-to-liquids (GTL) facilities damaged → 12.8 million tonnes per year of LNG offline for 3-5 years → 17% of Qatar's total LNG export capacity gone → $20 billion annual revenue loss → $26 billion in damaged facilities (the CEO said they "should not be attacked") QatarEnergy may declare force majeure on long term LNG supply contracts to: → Italy → Belgium → South Korea → China For up to 5 years. Additional exports declining: → Condensates: Down 24% → LPG: Down 13% → Naphtha: Down 6% → Sulphur: Down 6% → Helium: Down 14% The damaged trains: → Train S4 and S6: 30% owned by ExxonMobil, rest by QatarEnergy Production cannot restart until hostilities cease. What this means? 12.8 million tonnes per year = 17% of Qatar's LNG capacity. 17% of its capacity just disappeared for 3-5 years. Italy, Belgium, South Korea, China: These countries had long-term contracts with Qatar. Force majeure means those contracts are suspended. They now have to compete in spot markets for replacement cargoes. Against each other. And against every other buyer scrambling for LNG. $20 billion per year in lost revenue for Qatar. $26 billion in facilities damaged. The only country with capacity to absorb Qatari volumes at scale is the United States. I wrote a full breakdown on how this shift benefits US LNG producers and which stocks are positioned to win from Qatar's structural supply loss👇 open.substack.com/pub/themerchan… #Iran #Qatar #LNG

A fighter from the Syrian Democratic Forces of Arab origin, who was released today, says that the prisons in Deir ez-Zor are overcrowded with Kurdish detainees. He added: “We were subjected to beatings, broken ribs, and insults, and they forced us to bark.” It appears that the Damascus government is delaying the release of Kurdish fighters and civilians, and that this is part of a psychological war against the people of Rojava in particular and Kurds in general. #FreedomForThePrisoners #SaveTheKurdsAct

Just an embarrassing amount of gold chochkees here, as Trump tells a Japanese reporter he did not tell allies about his Iran war plans he now wants their help with because he wanted element of surprise, like Japan wanted when it attacked Pearl Harbor.

Applause in the European Parliament as Hungary's obese Russian-backed stooge Orban is called a useful idiot and tool of Putin.

Iranian chat rooms are reporting that the warships that were destroyed yesterday in the port of Anzali, northern Iran, were transporting drones and components from Russia.

In going to war, “Trump undertook a decision of immense strategic consequence without a clear strategy for managing the fallout. ..he gave up on negotiation prematurely. And he did so without making the case to Americans why this war was necessary.” gift link nytimes.com/2026/03/18/opi…

🚨 Iran reportedly issues evacuation warning for residents of Iraq’s Kurdistan Region. A Kurdish-language graphic published by an IRGC-affiliated channel calls on civilians to avoid several areas ahead of potential Iranian operations in the coming hours.

It’s the language of genocide. The Kurds were there long before the Turks.

I’m currently in Viet Nam and rumours on the street is they have almost run out of fuel. 40% increase in price overnight. They asked China to lend them jet fuel and they’ve said no.

Ukrainian military intelligence managed to hack communications between the Iranian embassy in Moscow and people connected to Russia's Shahed-136 drone programme and has reported a sharp uptick in scientific cooperation between Moscow and Teheran. intelligenceonline.com/middle-east-an…

Breaking from @halbritz @OrenCNN : A US F-35 fighter jet made an emergency landing at US air base in the Middle East after it was struck by what is believed to be Iranian fire, according to two sources familiar with the matter. Capt. Tim Hawkins, a spokesman for US Central Command, said the fifth-generation stealth jet was “flying a combat mission over Iran” when it was forced to make an emergency landing. Hawkins said the aircraft landed safely, and the incident is under investigation “The aircraft landed safely, and the pilot is in stable condition,” Hawkins added. The incident would be the first time Iran has hit a US aircraft in the war started in late February. Both the US and Israel are flying F-35s in the conflict; the aircraft costs upwards of $100 million.

Iran appears to have scored a successful hit in the vicinity of Israel's Haifa oil refinery moments ago.
