So far, what is certain is that two small fires broke out on two ships inside the port, which were connected together at the gas liquefaction plant dock. They were then moved out of the port, the fires were completely extinguished, and investigations have already begun...
To be clear, as a resident of #Damietta, there are still no certainties regarding the Damietta port incident today except for two main points: First, there is no physical evidence of any drone strikes on the port. (1-2)
Second, the process of removing the gas tankers from the port was carried out very quickly and professionally, and it has its justifications related to securing the port and the city from any greater damage in the event of an explosion of one of the ships (2-2)

. والثاني يرتبط بأن الجانب التكتيكي من استخدام القدرات المسيرة ـ في ظل تزايد نطاق انتشار هذه الأنظمة والأنظمة المضادة لها - هو أحد الجوانب الأساسية التي ستشهد تطورا متسارعا خلال المدى المنظور (٣ـ٣)
رغم التأخر النسبي لدخول واشنطن بشكل "عملياتي" في مسارات الأنظمة البحرية المسيرة، إلا أن هذا الدخول كان نوعي بشكل قد يعوض جانبا من هذا التأخر، والأهم أن الهجوم على بندر عباس (١-٣)
اثبت أمرين مهمين، الاول من طرف أيران، مفاده أن تركيز السواد الأعظم من الاهتمام التسليحي، على الجوانب الهجومية في الأنظمة المسيرة، على حساب الجوانب الدفاعية، وعمليات تأمين المرافق. المنشأت ضد مخاطرها، هو خطأ فادح (٢ـ٣)
Comparing the two situations defies both logic and diplomatic norms. Neither Eritrea nor Egypt has infringed upon anyone's rights, unlike the damage caused by Ethiopia’s unilateral water-related measures, which caused drop in Nile water levels in Sudan!
So if as Egypt and Eritrea say only littoral states have anything to say about Red Sea, then logically only nations which put water into the Nile, can determine its use.

Russian cargo vessel seen burning in the Sea of Azov
A high-resolution satellite image captured by @planet at around 8:00 a.m. today appears to show one of the Russian vessels struck by Ukraine overnight, with an active fire visible on its deck northeast of Russian-occupied Kerch.
Ukraine says 11 vessels were hit in the latest wave of attacks — five tankers, five dry cargo ships and a tugboat — as Kyiv intensifies its campaign against maritime logistics supporting Russia’s war effort.

هل كلف كل "المحللين" الذين تحدثوا عن "عمليات جوية" في محيط إيران انطلاقا من مطارات مصرية، بالبحث ولو قليلا قبل اتحافنا بكم التحليلات الغير معقول خلال الساعات الماضية! مواقع التتبع الجوي مفتوحة للجميع، لكن قلة فقط من ستعمل على فهم وتحليل ما تراه دون أحكام مسبقة!

It’s wild how easily US Navy Unmanned Surface Vessels managed to penetrate that deep into the Iranian Navy's most important port and successfuly blow up a submarine.
High-resolution satellite imagery shows advanced runway construction at Japan’s Self-Defense Forces base on Mageshima Island.
The site is part of Japan’s wider effort to strengthen its southwestern defense posture and support future air operations, including training linked to U.S. carrier-based aircraft.
The runway surfaces and supporting infrastructure appear to be progressing rapidly, although the full base project is still not complete.

1/? These are M4000 binary Sarin bombs.
The two precursors for Sarin (isopropyl alcohol and methylphosphonyl difluoride) would be loaded separately into the two holes in the side of the bomb. Inside the bomb are two chambers separated by a membrane.
