A Russian aircraft serving as an airborne command post flew to Tehran on the eve of U.S. strikes on targets in Iran.
According to the AirNav radar flight tracking system, a Tu-214PU with registration number RA-64531 arrived in Tehran on July 13 at 07:35 a.m. Kyiv time.
This visit took place before the start of the U.S. military operation, and the Russian aircraft’s stay in the Iranian capital was brief.
The Russian aircraft departed from Imam Khomeini International Airport at 07:08 p.m. The aircraft headed east and flew to Beijing, where it landed on July 14 at 02:25 a.m.
^^^^ Should've left it in place and collected it from Iran.

E-3B Sentry, P-8A Poseidon, and multiple KC-136/KC-46 tankers flying around tonight…

Iran Warns US Of 'Infrastructure For Infrastructure' War, Will Control Hormuz As 'Unbreakable Red Line'
Since the prior day's handover of American detainee Dena Karari back to the US, which President Trump said he "appreciated" as a rare "gesture of goodwill" from Iran, Washington's bombs over the Islamic Republic appear to have ceased or slowed, for now at least.
But that doesn't mean Iran's retaliatory missiles and drones on America's Gulf allies have halted. On Thursday, Kuwait has announced its air defenses continue to be active, confronting inbound assaults by "hostile drones". Screengrab of IRGC video from Sepah News website on July 14, 2026, showing a missile being launched towards US targets in Bahrain & Kuwait.
"The General Staff of the Army notes that any explosion sounds heard are the result of air defense systems intercepting the hostile attacks," the Kuwaiti military said in a statement, blasting "the sinful Iranian aggression." It added: "Everyone is requested to adhere to the security and safety instructions issued by the competent authorities."
After five consecutive days of US attack waves, the Iranian military has yet to show signs of backing off its assertions of 'control' over the Strait of Hormuz, and its military has newly warned that the energy transit waterway is an "unbreakable red line" which it will enforce.
On Wednesday President Trump warned that if Iran doesn't come back to the negotiating table - while relinquishing control of Hormuz - that by next week strikes will expand to include civic and energy infrastructure, such as bridges.
Tehran has in turn counter-threatened to destroy "all infrastructure throughout the region" if Trump acts on this threat to attack Iran's vital infrastructure cites.
New: “Infrastructure for Infrastructure” - Iran’s Khatam Al-Anbiya Joint HQ Colonel Ibrahim Zolfaghari:
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

WSJ Opinion July 12, 2026 editorial
The U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding and its cease-fire were effectively dead-on-arrival. Donald Trump and his top advisers now acknowledge their demise, but the agreement was never viable, ironically, because the U.S.-Israel military effort was so successful. Tehran doesn’t have a government in any coherent sense.
Despite the fact it is written by Bolton, I think it is correct. If the Guard does not support the political negotiations, they are doomed to fail!
Trump has made every single effort to negotiate peace… he is likely getting weary… we will hear from him tonight.

I have confidence that however and when this gets resolved we will be way better off as a nation and world Thanks to our President. I am fine being patient to get this worked out. If it takes three weeks or 18 months. I really don't care. As long as the resolution is to our long term satisfaction. And no this is not about gas price, for me anyways. Carry on.
