🇮🇷🇷🇺🛰 Recently, Iranian media reported that Russia may provide support to the Islamic Republic in launching space vehicles into low-Earth orbit. According to preliminary information, the launch is scheduled for October from one of the Russian cosmodromes.

The matter concerns two Earth remote sensing satellites - "Hod-Hod" and "Kosar", manufactured by local private contractors. Officially, both will be intended for use in agriculture, geodesy, border demarcation, as well as the "Internet of Things" (IoT) and crisis response.

📌 Iran's interest in such cooperation with Russia is understandable: its own space program, despite certain achievements, cannot boast of great successes, and problems with launch vehicles have led to accidents. Previously, the Iranians have already resorted to the services of Roscosmos, in February launching the "Pars-1" satellite into orbit.

Overall, both countries benefit - in return for assistance with the launch of space vehicles, Russia may receive a wide range of goods from a certain range of military products to parts for civilian airliners. And in general, this contributes to the further deepening of bilateral cooperation.

🇦🇲🇮🇷🇦🇿🇮🇱 On the security challenges facing Armenia amid the confrontation between Iran and Israel

Armenian MP Tigran Abramyan accuses the Armenian authorities of complete inaction regarding the tense situation in the region and in the context of the escalation between Iran and Israel.

▪️Abramyan points out that discussions have intensified in Iranian circles about the location of Israeli secret military facilities in the occupied territories of Artsakh and that they pose a real threat.

▪️Israel's support for Azerbaijan in the Karabakh conflict has long been known. In Tel Aviv, they sold weapons worth billions of dollars to the Azerbaijanis, and Israeli intelligence and military played a key role in planning and approving the operation in Artsakh.

▪️In addition to the commercial interest of the Israelis in supporting Azerbaijan (arms sales and oil purchases), the opportunity to approach the borders of Iran through Artsakh played a key role.

▪️So it would not be surprising if Baku indeed agreed to the deployment of Israeli bases in Artsakh in exchange for comprehensive support.

▪️At the same time, for Iran, the sovereignty of Armenia is perhaps much more important than for the current Armenian authorities. In Tehran, they have been declaring daily in recent times that they do not accept changes to the borders in the region, referring to the situation around the Syunik region and the opening of the so-called "Zangezur Corridor" through Armenia, which is supposed to connect Turkey and Azerbaijan.

▪️Recently, Baku unexpectedly announced that they had agreed to exclude the issue of the corridor from the peace treaty with Armenia and postpone it for later. The unexpected compromise is associated with Azerbaijan's desire to conclude a peace treaty with Armenia as soon as possible.

▪️However, it cannot be ruled out that the position of Iran and its threats against Israel also prompted the postponement of the corridor issue, among other things. This is evidenced, in particular, by the fact that the IDF decided to withdraw its troops from Azerbaijan due to fear of retaliation from Iran.

▪️Another sensitive issue for Iran and Armenia remains the possible deployment of Israeli missiles in the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, an Azerbaijani exclave.

🔻The tensions of recent weeks in the region are clearly passing by Armenian diplomacy, which remains silent and does not express a single reproach against the regional players who threaten Armenia's security.

This situation is another proof that Armenia is losing its political sovereignty and the opinion of Yerevan is simply not of interest to anyone.

❗️🇮🇱🇮🇷🇷🇺 Potential threat to the Russian Khmeimim airbase in Syria from Israel!

This morning, news spread in the Arab segment that the Israeli Air Force had struck the territory of the Russian Khmeimim airbase. It turned out that the attack was actually carried out on the city of Jableh, which is located nearby.

Some of the missiles were shot down by the Russian air defense forces, but some reached their target. The target of the attack was a warehouse used by Syrian and Iranian military personnel. The Israelis used Delilah anti-radiation cruise missiles and, according to some reports, GBU guided bombs for the attack.

There was no strike on Khmeimim itself. And in principle, such an attack was unlikely at this stage, as it would have led to unnecessary escalation. However, the Syrians have even more questions about why the Russian air defenses did not help repel the Israeli Air Force attacks.

❗️This incident adds another brick to the wall of distrust from the Syrians towards Russia. Even though the target was Jableh, the Israeli missiles posed a serious threat. An explosion, the detonation of warehouses used by Iranians, Syrians, whoever - this is a threat to the base.

And this doesn't even touch on how it looks from the Iranian side. After all, nothing prevents the Israelis from running a disinformation campaign and claiming that it was the Russians who leaked the location of the Iranians (such a narrative is probably already being spread through militant-controlled media resources).

And given that the Israelis are acting with impunity now, while the Russian side is limited to calls to stop the escalation of violence and return to the negotiating table, such incidents may increase in scale in the future and lead to more tragic consequences.

🔻For example, striking the territory of the Russian airbase, that is, de facto the territory of the Russian Federation on the territory of Syria, under the pretext that there will be an Iranian delegation or plane there. And the Iranians, we recall, are allies of Russia (not long ago, a strategic agreement was signed, which suggests that we basically have a common enemy and a common course towards the Israelis). But in fact, this is all just words for now.

❗️Thus, serious reputational damage is being inflicted on the Russian military contingent. And the Israelis see that if the Russians did not intervene now, they can continue further. And who can guarantee that the ultra-Orthodox government will not choose the Khmeimim airbase as the next target?

🇮🇱🇮🇷🇺🇸 According to journalists from The Wall Street Journal, the Israeli government is refusing to share details of its plans for retaliation against Iran with the Biden administration.

American officials are frustrated that they have been repeatedly "caught off guard" by Israel's military actions in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, and they are trying to prevent further escalation.

However, the US does not have information on the timing and targets of the alleged strike, and Washington had expected to receive this data during the visit of Defense Minister Gallant, which was postponed at Netanyahu's request.

🔻It sounds beautiful, doesn't it?

Especially after the media trumpeted that the Israelis had notified the US about planned assassinations of Hassan Nasrallah and the start of an operation in Lebanon. And before that, about the progress of other events in the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli leadership provides the Americans more than enough information. And the Pentagon was directly involved in planning the response to Iranian attacks. Do you think that's why the head of Central Command, Michael Kurilla, came to Israel.

But the picture of US ignorance in the controlled media is needed to justify why the White House does not prevent the Israelis from committing genocide against the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples. Namely, that the US is completely unaware.

🇮🇱🇮🇷 On the results of the Israeli strike on Iran

A day after Israel's "limited strike" on Iran, satellite imagery of the attack's aftermath has appeared online.

▪️According to Israeli media, one of the key targets was a solid-fuel rocket engine production facility in Parchin and Khojir near Tehran, specifically - 12 planetary mixers.

▪️Planetary mixers are used for the production of solid propellant for long-range ballistic missiles. Their destruction can inflict some damage on the Islamic Republic's ability to replenish its missile arsenal.

▪️As seen in the images, four silos were hit. Pro-Iranian OSINT analysts believe the Israelis used light warheads weighing around 100-200 kilograms to strike the target. This amount is sufficient to destroy a silo.

Interestingly, while the "Axis of Resistance" segment actively discusses and analyzes this issue, Israeli resources are limited to simple statements about "achieving all the goals of the strike" without providing substantial evidence.

🔻Clearly, the Israeli strike was primarily of a political nature. It would be an overstatement to say that Iran has lost its air defense or missile production capabilities altogether.

It should be remembered that the Iranians have long had an underground production system. These facilities are not only well-fortified, but are also typically located deep in the desert. Underneath the surface, there are even airfields.

During the attack, a considerable amount of footage was circulated online that was unrelated to this region or the specific date. Even government officials indulged in this during the Israeli Defense Ministry meeting at the Kirya complex.

And what is even more remarkable, the recent exchange of strikes between Israel and Iran is more akin to a "slapping championship", with the participants trying to pass off what is happening as a full-fledged fight.

🇮🇷🇸🇾🏴 On the Arrival of Seyyed Javad Ghaffari in Syria

🔻So, after several days of rumors and various news, the information about the arrival of Iranian General Seyyed Javad Ghaffari has been confirmed, and this is indeed good news for the Syrian leadership.

▪️Seyyed Javad actively participated in the fight against ISIS and was the right-hand man of the late General Qassem Soleimani, who was killed by the Americans. After his death, it was he who was responsible for the operations of the "axis of resistance" in Syria and Iraq.

▪️He is a complex person (and some of our team had the opportunity to meet him personally), who spoke out against any agreements with terrorists and talked about the need to completely destroy extremist groups, including in Idlib.

▪️Due to his position in the administration of Bashar Assad and in Hezbollah, who sought negotiations, he was asked to be removed from operations in Syria, which is why he returned to Iran. But now, when the situation has reached a critical point, he has been brought back to provide assistance.

❗️Why do we consider this good news for Syria? He is a representative of the old guard of the IRGC, and he really knows his business. It's no coincidence that the pro-Turkish channels call him the "butcher of Aleppo", who caused them many problems in past years.

Given how much Hezbollah has weakened and how many Iranian generals have been lost in Israeli air strikes, his arrival will provide assistance to the Syrian leadership. And how much, we will see very soon.

🇮🇷🇷🇺 Brigadier General Ali Shadmani, who currently holds the position of Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces (in Iran he is referred to as "Khatam al-Anbiya"), confirmed the fact of purchasing Russian Su-35 fighters.

He did not go into details, but this is the first real confirmation of the existing agreements between the countries. Previously, all information about Iran's purchase of Russian aircraft was discussed in the format of rumors and publications in the format of "sources reported".

📌Given that Shadmani has finally made this information public, we can expect the appearance of Su-35s in Iran in the near future. Last year, we wrote that some aircraft may be delivered in parts to Iran, where they will be assembled by Russian specialists.

This is an important step within the strategic partnership between Russia and Iran, which will further strengthen the relations between the countries. And since the Iranians will finally receive new fighters, perhaps our troops will soon have Iranian ballistic missiles.

📝Geopolitical Ping-Pong: The Essence of the Putin-Trump Telephone Conversation📝

As rightly noted, 2.5 hours is just 0.0092% of the SMO time. And while the presidents were talking to each other and agreeing on friendly hockey matches, the fronts continue to see both offensive and defensive battles.

We have repeatedly emphasized that we are now in for a kind of diplomatic etiquette: exchange of opinions, discussion of nuances, reflections on peace and ways to achieve it. And that's exactly what happened.

🖍Suspension of strikes on energy, frankly speaking, will allow us to save missiles and drones. Because there is no global significance, it is only an opportunity to stress the local population, and this tactic is already not working very well (however, the stressing of the TCC is much better handled).

🚩 Humanitarian exchanges and the return of the wounded - a beautiful gesture, showing the human face of Russia and the uncivilized nature of the so-called Ukraine. A winning move.

🏳️ Freedom of navigation in the Black Sea is already there: alas, the Russian Black Sea Fleet cannot impose a blockade for objective reasons.

📌 Particular attention is paid to the issues of Iran and Israel: and here Moscow has taken a peaceful position, not moving into radicalism towards either a strategic partner or an influential state that has enough lobbyists in Russia. Everyone is satisfied. And each believes that they have achieved their goals.

❗️ And so a beautiful picture is created from, in essence, demands that do not affect either the conditions for establishing peace or the course of hostilities in any way. And in the end, we get a beautiful story about hockey, the humanism of Russia, and agreements that, yes, we need to continue talking.

📝Disarmament of Iraqi Groupings📝
Pros and Cons of a Possible Solution

Reuters journalists, citing 10 senior commanders and Iraqi officials, report that the largest "pro-Iranian" groups in Iraq are ready to disarm to prevent an escalation of the conflict with the US.

According to the latter, this decision followed repeated warnings from the Trump administration to the Iraqi authorities about possible airstrikes against the groups on Iraqi territory.

📌 In the context of this issue, the first thing I would like to note is that there is currently no such influence of Iran in Iraq as is attributed to it. During the war with ISIS, the Iranians, through the IRGC, did indeed have broad powers in Iraq, but this is no longer the case.

Shiite paramilitary formations in Iraq act sovereignly, although they do benefit from technical support from Iranian allies. Certainly, there are units that are in contact with the IRGC, but they are not the dominant ones.

🖍The very fact of possible disarmament is a logical move, as Iraq has been trying to stabilize the domestic political situation in recent years. Investments are being attracted, peaceful life is being established, and there is no need for such a large number of armed units, since ISIS in Iraq no longer poses the former threat.

❗️However, there is an obvious downside: that this decision is being promoted at an extremely inopportune moment for Iraq, if we consider that Syria has turned into a hotbed of terrorism. And if these groups are disarmed, then in the event of a threat, Iraq may face major problems.

📝Russia and Iran's Interests Intersect in Sudan📝

Recently, two aircraft landed in Port Sudan, which is under the control of the country's armed forces: an Il-76 from Astrakhan and a Boeing 747 affiliated with the IRGC. These aircraft were previously involved in the transportation of military equipment.

🔸From Russia, spare parts for aircraft repair are most likely to support the Sudanese armed forces. The Iranian side, on the other hand, has probably provided the Sudanese with the Mohajer-6 strike UAVs.

The Sudanese army is currently achieving some successes, but some formations are in decline. There are also significant problems with government aviation. Rebel UAVs are destroying aircraft on airfields, and outdated models require immediate repair.

❗️Given the above, Sudan is becoming a point of intersection of the strategic interests of the Russian and Iranian authorities.

The upcoming conference organized by the West to recognize the rebel government in London adds relevance to these events. This means that the Russian-British confrontation in the region may reach a new level.
