Abdullah Al-Rajhi, spokesperson for Kuwait's Civil Aviation Authority, announced on Saturday night, March 13th, that the country's international airport was targeted by multiple drone attacks. According to him, these attacks resulted in damage to the airport's radar system. The incident caused no casualties. @ VahidOOnLine Following a drone attack, a fire has broken out at the Lanaz refinery in the city of Erbil in northern Iraq. According to local officials, after the drone struck the refinery, which was built in 2008, operations at the facility have been temporarily suspended to assess the extent of the damage. This region has repeatedly been targeted by attacks linked to the Islamic Republic since the beginning of the war, and it also houses a U.S. military base. Earlier this week, British forces announced they had shot down two drones attributed to the Islamic Republic that were flying over Erbil. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Jürgen Habermas, the German philosopher, sociologist and writer, passed away at the age of 96. He was considered one of Germany's most important philosophers whose works had many readers worldwide. Mr. Habermas was a social science theorist known for his work in fields such as critical theory, communication, pragmatism, and social phenomenology. He is regarded as one of the "heirs of the Frankfurt School" who tried to update the sociological and social theories of this school of thought. His intellectual domain included continental philosophy and sociology, and his writing style brought academic and philosophical writing closer together. Mr. Habermas believed in the importance of spoken language as "a form of human resemblance" and on the other hand considered writing as "solving the problems of spoken language." @ VahidHeadline Jürgen Habermas, the prominent German thinker whose works influenced philosophy, sociology and democratic theory for decades, passed away at 96. Habermas was considered one of Germany's most important philosophers after World War II and had a decisive presence in many intellectual and political debates in the country. He saw a united Europe as the only way to confront the resurgence of nationalism and in his final years defended the idea of a European federal project. He was born on June 18, 1929 in Düsseldorf and studied philosophy, psychology, German literature and economics at the universities of Göttingen, Zurich and Bonn. His professional career began in the 1950s at the Frankfurt Institute for Social Research under Theodor Adorno, and from there he became one of the main figures of the Frankfurt School intellectual tradition. @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

Donald Trump, the U.S. President, denied reports of severe damage to 5 American refueling aircraft at Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. Several media outlets reported last night that these aircraft were damaged in Iran's missile attack, but Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth, that although the base was targeted for several days, the aircraft were "not hit or destroyed." He also added: "4 of these 5 aircraft have sustained virtually no damage and are ready for operations. One of them has sustained slightly more damage, but will be flying soon." @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

The Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic claimed that airstrikes on Kharg Island were carried out "from the territory of Iran's neighbors" using "HIMARS" missiles. Abbas Araghchi also announced that the launch site for strikes toward Kharg was "from Ras al-Khaimah and an area near Dubai." In his new statements, Iran's Foreign Minister threatened that the Islamic Republic will respond to these attacks and added: "We will be careful not to target densely populated areas." This comes as part of Fujairah port in the United Arab Emirates caught fire on Saturday following a drone attack by the Revolutionary Guards. The spokesman for Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters also asked the people of the UAE to evacuate "ports, docks and American hideouts in UAE cities."

The government newspaper Farhikhtegan wrote that the former secretary of the Islamic Republic's National Security Council has been buried in the courtyard of Imamzadeh Saleh shrine in Tehran. According to this government newspaper, witnesses at the burial said there was no head on his body. @ VahidOOnLine The unusual burial of some political figures in prohibited areas of Tehran has once again revealed the gap between "ordinary citizens" and "Islamic Republic insiders" when it comes to municipal laws. While for years the policy has been centered on concentrating burials in Behesht-e Zahra cemetery, we are witnessing newsworthy exceptions; from the burial of Ayatollah Jamarani in the courtyard of his private home in Jamaran, to the burial of Ali Shamkhani at Imamzadeh Saleh in Tehran's Tajrish neighborhood, which surprised many. This is while since 2005, based on Interior Ministry resolutions and comprehensive urban plans, burial of the deceased in abandoned cemeteries and scattered locations within Tehran has been declared prohibited. This prohibition is enforced so strictly that even for renowned cultural and artistic figures like Master Akbar Golpaygani (Golpa), no exception was made. Master Golpa, according to his will, wanted to be buried in the historic "Zahir-od-Dowleh" cemetery, but citing the same laws prohibiting burial in historic sites and within the city, his family's request was opposed and he was ultimately laid to rest in the artists' section of Behesht-e Zahra. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Donald Trump's new post on Truth Social: Many countries, especially those harmed by Iran's attempts to close the Strait of Hormuz, will send warships to the region in coordination with the United States to keep this strait open and secure. We have previously destroyed 100 percent of Iran's military capability, but even with such a defeat, it's not difficult for them to send one or two drones, deploy sea mines, or fire a short-range missile along this waterway or within it. I hope China, France, Japan, South Korea, Britain, and other countries that are harmed by this artificial restriction will send their ships to this region so that the Strait of Hormuz is no longer threatened by a country that has been completely decapitated. Meanwhile, the United States will heavily bombard the coasts and continuously target Iranian boats and ships at sea. One way or another, we will soon make the Strait of Hormuz open, safe, and free.

Confirmed reports indicate that the US Embassy in Baghdad has once again come under drone attacks, and the Associated Press has reported that Iraqi officials told the outlet that a helicopter landing site at the US Embassy in Baghdad was targeted. Images show smoke rising from this complex in the Iraqi capital. This embassy had previously been targeted during the US and Israeli war against Iran. Saturday's attack occurred shortly after the killing of two Iranian-backed fighters in attacks on Baghdad. It was reported that one of the targets was the home of Raheef Qasem, also known as Abu Ali, who was a senior commander of a pro-Iranian paramilitary group. This paramilitary group has been conducting almost daily drone and missile attacks on American facilities near Baghdad airport. Earlier, Arabic television Al Jazeera had reported that smoke was rising from the United States Embassy in Baghdad. @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

Donald Trump released images of the US forces' attack on Kharg Island. Kharg Island is considered one of the most important oil terminals, with approximately 90% of Iran's oil exports conducted through this island. @VahidOOnLine Fars News Agency reported that in last night's attacks on Kharg Island, the island's oil infrastructure sustained no damage. The report, citing "field sources," stated that during last night's attacks "the sound of more than 15 explosions was heard on the island." Fars News Agency continued in its report: "The enemy attempted to damage the army's air defense, Joshen naval base, airport control tower, and continental shelf helicopter base during these attacks." According to this source, "none of the oil infrastructure was damaged in these attacks." @VahidHeadline Mehr News Agency wrote that all oil industry personnel on Kharg Island are in complete safety and no harm has come to them. Earlier, following the US army's air strike on Kharg Island in the early hours of Saturday, Iranian media had reported hearing the sound of more than 15 explosions in various parts of the island. @VahidOOnLine Following the US army's air strike on Kharg Island, Iranian domestic media confirmed the incident and reported that during these attacks, the sound of more than 15 explosions was heard in different parts of the island and thick smoke rose from some areas. These media outlets, citing field sources, announced that despite the intensity of the explosions, none of the island's oil infrastructure was damaged. So far, no further details about potential damage or casualties have been released. @VahidOOnLine The Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps issued a statement early Saturday morning, March 23rd, threatening that if "oil, economic and energy infrastructure" of the Islamic Republic is attacked, it will turn the oil and economic infrastructure of regional countries to "ashes." This statement was released hours after Donald Trump's remarks about attacking Kharg Island in the Persian Gulf. @VahidOOnLine Hours after the US attack on Kharg Island ordered by Trump, Trump's 1988 statements about attacking Kharg are being reshared on social media. In these statements, which were published in American media at the time, Trump said: "If the decision were up to me, I would deal with Iran harshly. They have defeated us psychologically and made us look like a bunch of fools. Even if the Islamic Republic fires a single bullet at one of America's forces or ships, I would heavily target Kharg Island." He added: "The Islamic Republic can't even defeat Iraq, but it puts pressure on America. Confronting them would be good for the world." @VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

The Wall Street Journal, citing two American officials, reported that five U.S. Air Force tanker aircraft at Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia were targeted and damaged in the Islamic Republic's recent missile attack while they were on the ground. According to this report, these five American tanker aircraft were damaged but not completely destroyed and are currently being repaired. Additionally, no one was killed in these attacks. This brings the total number of U.S. Air Force tanker aircraft that have been damaged or destroyed since the conflicts in the region began to at least seven aircraft. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Donald Trump's new post, machine translation: Moments ago, under my direct orders, the United States Central Command (CENTCOM) carried out one of the heaviest air strikes in Middle Eastern history and completely destroyed all military targets on Kharg Island — which is considered Iran's shining jewel. Our weapons are the most powerful and advanced war machines the world has ever seen; however, for humanitarian considerations, I have decided not to level the oil infrastructure of this island at this stage. But I warn that if Iran or any other party takes the slightest action to disrupt free and safe shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, I will immediately reconsider this decision. During my first presidency and now as well, I have rebuilt the American military and transformed it into the deadliest, most powerful and efficient military force in the entire world. Iran has no ability to defend targets that we have the will to attack; they are completely powerless against our strength! Iran will never obtain nuclear weapons and will never have the capability to threaten the United States of America, the Middle East and the entire world. For Iran's military and all those who cooperate with this terrorist regime, it would be wiser to lay down their weapons and save what remains of their country — which admittedly isn't much! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President Donald J. Trump realDonaldTrump 📡 @VahidOnline
