Interesting markings on the 366th Fighter Wing F-15Es returning from Middle East deployment to Mountain Home AFB show AGM-158 JASSMs, AGR-20 APKWS II and JDAMs. Suggests JASSMs likely used in the Operation Midnight Hammer.

Fire in the refinery in the Iranian city of Abadan in the southwest of the country. Looks like a distillation tower is on fire.
Two Iranian Sunnis who were fighting along with the New Syrian Army against the #Druze forces in #Suwayda were killed in the Israeli bombardment on July 16, 2025. They were named Osman Kurdi and Abu-Anas Kurdi which means they were likely from the Iranian province of Kurdistan.

Two Iranian Air Force Boeing-747s in Mehrabad airport of Tehran today. Surprisingly, Israeli Army did not attack them in the 12-day war. Only one Boeing-707 tanker was attacked in Mashhad airport.

The Saudi led NRF seized a ship delivering arms to Ansarallah (Houthis) in Yemen. It gives a good look into Ansarallah's own production capabilities. Here's a thread of what we saw captured:
Interestingly, the manuals and instructions for the seized Iranian weapons sent to Yemen are in Farsi (Persian), not in Arabic; meaning the missiles operators in Yemen are IRGCQF officers, not Yemeni Houthis.

The tanker seized by Iran in the Gulf of Oman today is charged with smuggling 2 million liters (0.5 million gallon or 12.5 thousand barrel) of fuel. It's likely a small tanker, and these seizes are common as the fuel price in Iran is very low.

My guess for the US Navy AGM-158C LRASM target is a Yemeni Houthis Anti-Ship Cruise Missile Launcher along the shore.
The U.S. used advanced, long-range, LRASM antiship missiles for the first time to strike targets in the Middle East, per a new DOD budget request. The missiles, which cost roughly $3.2 million per round, were expended “in support of the DOD response to the situation in Israel.”
Hassan Kazemi-Qomi, former Iranian ambassador to Afghanistan and Iraq claimed in an interview with Iranian State TV tonight that Iran killed 30 Israeli pilots in a single operation in the 12-day war and Israel censored it.
Outdated French weapons including AS-12 Air to Surface missile & HOT anti-tank guided missile systems found by the Syrian Army from Druze minority arm depots in #Suweida. Similar weapons were seen in the aftermath video of Israeli attack to Damascus's Mezzeh Airport in Oct 2024.
