Defence analyst says torpedo strike is a ‘humiliation’ for Modi’s government that disregarded a US defence partner Middle East crisis – live updates The distress call came in to Sri Lanka’s Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre just after 5am. The ship in trouble, they determined, was well within Sri Lanka’s obligation for rescue, being just over 19 nautical miles off the coast of the southern city of Galle. The navy swiftly mobilised and, by 6am, the first search and rescue boat was on its way, another soon close behind. It was hard to see through the thick morning mist but officers on board kept their eyes peeled for a ship in the distance. Continue reading...
So I've been going down a rabbit hole on the Prince Sultan Air Base strike and something keeps bothering me that I haven't seen discussed anywhere properly. Everyone's focused on the number. Five tankers. Seven total in a week. And yes, that's significant. But the number isn't the story. The story is the 11 days before it. Those planes were sitting on that Saudi tarmac since before the operation started. Satellite-visible. Location confirmed. Iran knew exactly where they were from Day 1. And for 11 straight days of Operation Epic Fury — while bombs were falling on Iranian territory daily — those KC-135s were not touched. Then Day 14. Five hit simultaneously. No warning. I keep asking myself — why wait? If you have the capability and you know the target, why 11 days of patience first? And when I actually looked at the sequence of what was hit and in what order — Day 1, Day 13, Day 14 — it stopped looking like escalation and started looking like something else entirely. There's also something about the KC-46 replacement program that almost nobody in mainstream coverage is connecting to this. The public GAO reports on it are genuinely eye-opening in this context. I don't want to dump the whole thing here because it's a long read and honestly it's the kind of thing where the sequence matters — you need to follow the logic step by step for it to land properly. I put together a full breakdown on YouTube if anyone wants the complete picture. Not trying to push anything, just genuinely think this angle deserves more attention than it's getting. What's your read on the 11-day gap? Deliberate strategy or am I reading too much into the timing? submitted by /u/Think_Anything_6116 to r/MiddleEastNews [link] [comments]

Zahra Ghanbari will head from Australia to Malaysia and from there fly back to Iran, the IRNA news agency said. Three players and one backroom staff member had already in previous days withdrawn their bids for asylum and travelled to Malaysia.
