Iran is saying we hit power infrastructure. They were already experiencing rolling blackouts due to the antiquated grid. Now....

Iran is experiencing widespread power outages today, with residents and media reporting extensive blackouts across several provinces, including areas in and around Tehran, Karaj, and cities in southern Iran.

Well looks like they found ways to start launching again:

I was going to say I found nothing suggesting we used an EMP or took down their grid. All I see is that we struck the nuclear facility.

The Iranians know ---- of all the actors and at this moment --- this is the cape they know not to pull.

Further, the Hebrew State is deferring to the US and Arab players ---- no sense to disturb that bowl of Post Toasties

Finally, the Hebrew State has finally realized a better position in Lebanon ---- no need to untrack

Finally, their inclusion on Offense destabilizes the hornet nest

From what I understand from the last 8 or so days of bombings:

- Radars, sensors, and communication facilities along the coast have been taken out.

- Bridges and rail to Bandar Abbas have been taken out, isolating the coastal area from resupply.

- Command and control centers, plus weapons depots within Iran, have been hit, including electric infrastructure that powers these places.

- Non-oil infrastructure on Kharg Island has been hammered.

- Americans are escorting ships through the Strait and are conducting continuous mine sweeps.

- Iran's ability to launch large missile barrages has been severely crippled

- Iran's command and control apparatus is in disarray, due to the inability to communicate, coordinate, and resupply.


Sounds like it's been a bad week to be in charge of Iran. I guess we'll see what comes in the days ahead of if this is all true.

There has been zero retaliation from Iran so far. None. There is a lot of chatter going on the Osint accounts that there is no power in Iran right now and many are speculating the reason the IRGC has not started popping off yet, is that we used some kind of EMP device to take out their stuff. Additionally there is no chatter at all coming from anyone on the Iranian side. We may have just taken out their entire power grid.


We would have to take out a huge chunk of their power plants for that to happen

And where are the sources claiming we used EMP devices?

The more the IRGC is crippled, the sooner the three guerilla groups can come to dominate with the help of air power.

There were none. It was just talk amongst a lot of OSINT accounts last night due to the eerie silence from Iran's side during and after the strikes ended.
