The warning that the Israeli army published at 11:13. I also had messages about this: - The map that Israel published of the Villa area is not Nejatollahi. Rather, it's the Azadi area of the Hajj and Pilgrimage Organization. - That red warning zone is not for Manirieh, it's Revolution Street between Revolution Square and Shahr Theater because on one side it hits Tehran University and on the other side it hits City Theater. The two buildings it has specified and named have nothing to do with Manirieh. In other news: The Israeli army announced on Friday, March 22nd that in the past 24 hours of airstrikes, it has targeted more than 200 military positions of the Islamic Republic in western and central Iran. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Trump's latest post, machine translation: We are completely destroying Iran's terrorist regime; whether militarily, economically, or in other areas. However, if you read the declining New York Times, you would mistakenly think we are not winning. Iran's navy is gone, their air force no longer has an external presence, and their missile arsenals, drones, and all their capabilities are being destroyed; their leaders have also vanished from the scene. We have unparalleled firepower, endless ammunition, and sufficient time; witness today what fate awaits these crazy thugs. They have been killing innocent people around the world for 47 years, and now I, as the 47th President of the United States of America, am eliminating them. Accomplishing this mission is a great honor! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President Donald J. Trump realDonaldTrump (I won't be online for the next few hours. Please don't send messages if you don't have images, so it won't take long for me to catch up when I return.) 📡 @VahidOnline

The United States has issued a 30-day license allowing all countries to purchase Russian crude oil and petroleum products currently stranded at sea. Scott Bessent, U.S. Treasury Secretary, said this action was taken following global energy market disruptions due to the ongoing war in the Middle East, aimed at helping stabilize these markets. Bessent wrote in a message on social media platform X just hours after oil prices rose above $100 per barrel: "The United States is taking decisive steps to strengthen stability in global energy markets while working to keep prices down as we face threats and instability from Iran's terrorist regime." The U.S. Treasury Department has emphasized that this action is "short-term and precisely limited," covering only oil that was already in transit and will not create "significant financial benefit" for the Russian government. Bessent also stated: "The temporary increase in oil prices is a short-term and transient disruption that will bring great benefits to our country and economy in the long run." @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

♦️ Emmanuel Macron, President of France, announced early Friday, March 12th, that following a drone attack by the Islamic Republic on a military base in Erbil in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, one French officer was killed and several other soldiers from the country were wounded. According to Macron, Senior Warrant Officer Arnaud Frion from the 7th Alpine Hunters Battalion stationed in Varces lost his life in this attack. He announced in a message that the French nation stands alongside the family of this serviceman and his comrades. The French President called this attack unacceptable and reminded that French forces have been present in Iraq since 2015 as part of the international coalition fighting ISIS. The French army had previously announced that this drone attack occurred while forces were conducting a training exercise. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Messages from 5:25 AM: It's still hitting Tehran hard. We're in west Tehran. Explosions are happening every minute. Far and near. Deep and shallow. 5:26 and 5:27 two tremors toward Bahar Tehran. This time it was more westward than the previous ones. The previous ones were mostly to our east. Explosions can be heard from all over Tehran. Hello 5:26 AM explosion sound from east Tehran 22/12/1404. Hello 5:26 AM southeast Tehran, the house shook! There's been continuous sound for an hour. Explosion sounds are also coming from Valiasr Square direction. The sound is different from usual - not loud but it's like it's trembling in the depths of the earth. We're in Eslamshahr, it's hitting very badly tonight, the sounds are very different. The tremor durations are longer, explosion sounds keep coming. Hello right now at 5:27 we felt another explosion. It's distant but the sound is very loud. We're in Lavasan. We're near Enghelab Square, right now two bad explosion sounds came from afar at 5:26. Hello Mr. Vahid, our house is in south Tehran, Nazi Abad, it's hitting a point in south Tehran, the sound echoes here, very frightening. Hello explosion sounds are still coming, Eslamshahr 5:28, two explosion sounds. Why aren't they leaving this time? Usually they came maximum twice at 20-minute intervals, now it's been 45 minutes. Vahid, our house is center facing west, besides the first three explosion waves, our house shook 3 more times right now [time?!] center, continuous. 5:27 tremors getting stronger. Vahid, we're toward Saadat Abad, right now [time?!] 2 very deep explosion sounds came one after another. 5:26 one of those explosions from 4:40 onward toward southeast (around Se Rah Afsarieh) was heard, like an earthquake, the building shakes when this sound comes. Vahid, right now Eslamshahr is shaking badly several times. Dear Vahid, we're toward Sepah Square and it seems we're very far from the bomb epicenter but there's a strange sound coming and I even saw its light. I'm freaked out that I'm right by my window and the smell of burning and something has reached here. Even during the war it hadn't hit this continuously. Friday 22 Esfand 4:43 AM Saadat Abad we heard two explosion sounds that were long and terrifying but relatively distant. East Tehran right now [time?!] one hit, its sound was very distant and weak, barely audible. But the house shook a little. It was strange. 5:30 AM: Sound still coming non-stop - Tehran Tarasht neighborhood. Vahid, it's completely different from every night, over 20 explosions from far and near have come, the sounds are different, even when coming from afar the house shakes, the sounds don't stop, explosion sounds one after another, it's unclear what it's hitting with, it's like no other night. Dowlat Abad for example in minute 30 very weak explosion sounds with tremors reach the ears, then suddenly every few minutes intense sound with severe tremor comes but the weak explosions that don't stop are strange. Vahid, I'm in west Tehran. From the first explosion around 4:45 until now I hear about fifteen terrifying explosion sounds from far and near the city. Heavy rain doesn't let us see where smoke is rising but I can say the explosions are for bunker busters because they go deep and crack in a way that makes houses shake and it's not like previous nights. Continuous and back-to-back as if it goes around then comes back and pounds. From 4:43 to 5:25 we've been completely on vibration, definitely a bomber is hitting. Eslamshahr, we're in district 19, from behind Kahrizak it's drilling very hard there, over 50 missiles hit it, reached the earth's core, all the sounds written about Tehran were for there, even kids in Afsarieh could feel the sound. Vahid, in our group everyone is simultaneously hearing a sound, this tremor is for somewhere that's being hit very hard, I think from south Tehran but everyone feels the tremor. We're from Sattar Khan and Sepah Square and

Based on all the messages I've received, it seems the targets of one of the heavy attacks early Friday morning, March 22nd, were somewhere around Bagher Shahr and Rey city, Tehran refinery, and Kahrizak in south #Tehran.

The sound of a massive explosion in central Tehran, Revolution area, 5:20 AM Friday, March 22nd. The sound of explosions can still be heard. After a few minutes that passed, an even more massive explosion was heard. 5:26 central Tehran. At 5:20 it's still pounding. 5:20 another very severe explosion, the whole house shook. It hit again, won't leave the east alone. Tonight until now we felt the sound of severe shaking 4 times. So much that our entire building was shaking. Vahid jan, it's now 5:21 and this happened 2 more times. Vahid, at 5:20 Satar Khan, for the umpteenth time explosion and severe shaking but it seems distant. At 5:26 again, this time closer and more terrifying. Central Tehran, Fatemi, 5:20 the fourth massive explosion was felt. These four explosions were distinctly more severe than all the explosions we felt in central Tehran. Even more severe than last Friday morning's explosions. 5:26, felt the fifth one. 5:27 then the next one again. 5:20 sound of glass shaking again Tehran, this one was farther from north Tehran. Tehran is getting heavy rain but rain and snow make no difference to them, they come and go easily and do their work. 5:28 sound of two distant explosions. Vahid, since quarter past four Tehran has been getting hit hard. We're on the east side, it's not clear where from but it seems all of Tehran is hearing it. I'm in Tehran Majidieh area, look our whole building shook. After 15 minutes another one again, within a quarter hour another sound, its sound was different from all other sounds. They hit again. West Tehran (Tehransar), 5:25, sound of explosions closer than before, house windows are shaking. The sound of explosions doesn't stop. I saw black smoke over south Tehran from the center. 6-7 so far, it's distant to us and the sound is low but it has nice depth. Those first 2 when they dropped, we kind of felt our building. Tehran is getting rain and it's cloudy, nothing is clearly visible but the black smoke below is somewhat visible. Now the ground shook 2 more times, right now at 5:25 sound of explosion again Ferdowsieh Shahriar, this time it was farther, the sound. Hello Vahid, from Shahr-e Rey side some terrible sounds are coming, very different from usual, the house shakes a lot. Now sound came again, I'm in Tehranpars, the building shook. 5:26 that same sound came again. 5:26 Piroozi shook again and it was quite severe and all the windows shook. In these 25 minutes since my last message, sounds of several explosions came but the last explosion (5:25) was the most severe of all and the windows shook. 05:20 another one. Whatever it is, these are severe explosions but we can't figure out where it is. 5:25 and 5:27 again similar sounds came. 5:26 west Tehran explosion sound came twice, this time very different, the shaking is also intense. We're southeast Tehran, maybe about 20 minutes now it's constant explosions and doesn't stop, it's distant, I think it might be toward Parchin. Some of them get close, shake badly. 5:20 another sound came. 5:26 again. 5:27 another one, very terrifying, it's so frequent that messaging is useless because it's constantly hitting 📡 @VahidOnline
