🇮🇷⚡️ — Iranian forces prevented an oil tanker from transiting the Strait of Hormuz after it entered the area without authorization, according to Tasnim News Agency.

⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇷 — The U.S. military was roughly three hours from launching missile strikes inside Iran on Thursday, with operational preparations already underway including naval air task adjustments and readiness of munitions, when President Donald Trump announced on social media that a deal had been reached, effectively halting the escalation sequence — NBC citing two U.S. officials.

➡️ The sources said Navy ships and strike packages were being readied under existing execution orders, while confirming that although contingency plans for Kharg Island had existed for months, the site was not included in the active target set for the planned Thursday targets, despite prior presidential references to the facility.

➡️ They added that the specific operation was refined only after Trump’s morning social media post, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth directing adjustments toward options similar to previous night’s limited strikes, and that the mission was ultimately suspended following White House-level consultations involving the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
