Our INTREP360 Intelligence Report for 06.03.2026 is live.

Today, Col. @JESweet2022, U.S. Army (ret.) & I warn that Iran is going on offense against a hesitant White House.

Kuwait’s Civil Aviation Authority released footage showing Wednesday morning’s Iranian drone attack on the Terminal 1 building at Kuwait International Airport. The footage disproves Iran’s claim of a misfired U.S. interceptor missile.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱🇱🇧U.S., Israel and Lebanon in a joint statement: "As a result of the U.S. led negotiations, Israel and Lebanon agreed to the implementation of a ceasefire. The ceasefire is contingent on a complete cessation of Hizbollah fire and the evacuation of all Hizbollah operatives from the South Litani Sector"

BREAKING | Source Close to the IRGC: Iran Preparing to Escalate Pressure on Gulf States

• According to a source close to the IRGC, Iran is expected to increase pressure and provocations against Gulf countries in the coming period

• The source says Tehran believes that if there is no economic relief and no progress with Washington, pressure in the Gulf will intensify

• IRGC assessment: the worsening economic crisis inside Iran could lead to renewed operations aimed at raising the cost for the other side

Source close to the IRGC:
“The worse Iran’s economic situation becomes, the greater the pressure in the Gulf will be. If there is no money and no progress with the Americans, the other side must feel the price.”

I'll never forget meeting the former head of Britain's Foreign Intelligence Service MI-6 Alex Younger in Pakistan. He was an exceptional subject matter expert, leader, and colleague. We honor his memory by carrying on our impactful special relationship

I love the details about NOTUS negotiation with the Washington Star. NOTUS offered $5k for the trademark. Star countered with ….$10 million https://t.co/xc2GSLdg1o

🚫 CLAIM: Iran is now claiming it has targeted a U.S. Navy destroyer in the Gulf of Oman.

✅ TRUTH: Iran is lying. U.S. military assets at sea continue to fly, sail, and operate safely and unimpeded.

[Ariel Oseran أريئل أوسيران @ariel_oseran]

CENTCOM says Iran struck the passenger terminal at Kuwait International Airport with drones “in a deliberate, calculated, and unjustified attack.” CENTCOM said Iran’s claim that the airport was hit by a failed U.S. interceptor missile is “totally false.”

[Al Jazeera Breaking News @AJENews]

BREAKING: Iran’s chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf says the era of “free-of-charge” threats against Iran is over and warns that any US-Israeli aggression will be met with a proportionate response, reports Iranian media.

Iran says talks with the U.S. are still ongoing and no final decision has been made, and that the reason the first phase of talks in Islamabad were unsuccessful is Iran’s refusal to enter into nuclear negotiations.

“We will not enter into an agreement in which Lebanon is ignored,” the IRGC-affiliated Fars News reports citing a member of the Iranian negotiating team.

My latest with @JESweet2022 in the @TheWashStar.

Iran is using kinetic military strikes in the Gulf, including today’s attack on a civilian passenger terminal in Kuwait, to gain negotiating leverage against @POTUS.

The IRGC is using the same playbook in Lebanon.

Link below.

[The Washington Star @TheWashStar]

Iran continued to violate its ceasefire with America and Israel overnight, killing one person and injuring at least 63 more when it attacked a Kuwait International Airport passenger terminal. @MCTothSTL and @JESweet2022 break it down in The Washington Star — as well as @mirandadevine's interview of President Trump everyone is talking about this morning. https://t.co/UuaOdIp5Vb

[Mark Toth @MCTothSTL]

@KJTorrance @JESweet2022 @mirandadevine Cheers Kelly. I swore I was following @mirandadevine & but alas not. I am now!

[Kelly Jane Torrance @KJTorrance]

Smart stuff in The Washington Star from @MCTothSTL and @JESweet2022 on how Iran is using kinetic ceasefire violations as leverage in its negotiations with the Trump administration — and about that @mirandadevine interview with President Trump everyone watched this morning.

[Mark Toth @MCTothSTL]

When will the Gulf States learn? Ditto when will @POTUS?

Iran is not a reliable peace partner.

[Seyed Abbas Araghchi @araghchi]

Our Armed Forces are conducting self-defense strikes on sites the U.S. is permitted to use to attack civilian shipping and violate the ceasefire.

Any hostile act will be met with an immediate, decisive response. What sanctions and war failed to achieve won't be won with more war
