UPDATED: Fresh Skirmishes in U.S.-Iran Conflict
Bahrain's arrested 15 individuals for "operating on behalf of networks linked to Iran's IRGC, involved in recruitment, influence operations, and activities deemed harmful to the kingdom's security and social stability".
Bahrain dictator is using the war on Iran to crack down on any opposition in the country questioning the corrupt kingdom's politics.
Previously, they accused several people and took away their citizenship after they shared positive posts on social media about Iranian attacks against US bases in Bahrain and exposed the lies of the regime blaming the death of several Shia worshipers when a patriot missile missfired and hit a Shia mosque where people were worshiping

Iran has warned that Israel breach of ceasefire has pushed Iran into a difficult position to either accept Israeli aggression or react decisively.
There is a risk that Iran may initiate an attack against Israeli targets in the next 24 hours.
This comes after Iran shooting down an American MQ-1, US bombing of Radar and radio stations in Qeshm and Bandar Abbas, followed by launch of 2 missiles towards US airbase in Kuwait early this morning.
It seems like Israel is finally getting their war back!
PS. It is strange that US is now using the outdated MQ-1s in Iran, either because they have lost too many MQ-9s or that they want to use them as bait for Iranian new air defense system.

Tensions between the United States and Iran remain high as President Donald Trump weighs a tentative agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and restart nuclear negotiations. While US officials describe the proposed deal as a step toward a lasting ceasefire, disagreements over Iran's nuclear program, frozen assets, and sanctions remain unresolved. Meanwhile, the US military has demonstrated readiness to resume combat operations in the Persian Gulf if required, highlighting the strategic importance of the region. In the Strait of Hormuz, a Gambian-flagged vessel en route to Iran was disabled by US forces for violating the blockade, and Omani authorities reported a suspected naval mine, raising further security concerns. In Lebanon, clashes between Hezbollah and Israeli forces have intensified despite a prior US-mediated ceasefire, leading to school closures and hospital relocations in northern Israel. Gas prices in the US have slightly decreased but remain significantly higher than before the conflict. Overall, the situation underscores the fragile state of regional stability, with potential peace agreements hinging on complex negotiations that involve military, economic, and geopolitical factors.
