Rare good news from #Tuzla: Divers found a healthy #penshell and #seagrass ecosystem along the pressured North #Marmara coast. The species can filter about 6 litres of seawater per hour. Monitoring efforts are now underway.
From markets to daily life — #Türkiye is feeling the impact of the #Iran war. Prices are rising as energy costs surge. Watch my latest report on @AJEnglish, with insights from @filizkt

“The firm stance of the President of the Republic of Türkiye, my dear brother Mr. R.T. Erdoğan, in condemning the aggressive Zionist regime is commendable. The brotherly Turkish nation has long played an important role in showing solidarity with the Islamic ummah. With divine grace, we will continue on this honorable path.”
T.C. Cumhurbaşkanı, aziz kardeşim Sayın R.T. Erdoğan’ın saldırgan Siyonist rejimi kınama konusundaki kararlı tutumu takdire şayandır.Kardeş Türk milleti, uzun yıllardır İslam ümmetiyle dayanışmada önemli bir rol üstlenmiştir. Bu şerefli yolu, ilahî lütufla birlikte devam edeceğiz
Türkiye MoD statement:
• Ballistic munition launched from Iran and entering Turkish airspace was neutralized by NATO air & missile defense assets in the Eastern Mediterranean.
• Türkiye says all necessary measures are being taken against threats to its territory and airspace.
• Consultations ongoing with the relevant country to clarify the incident.
• Developments in the region are being closely monitored with national security as the top priority.
#NEW 🇹🇷 Transport Minister Abdulkadir Uraloglu:
Transport minister: We had 15 of our ships in the Strait of Hormuz. We allowed one of them to pass after obtaining permission from the Iranian authorities since it had used an Iranian port. We are trying to remain in contact with the Iranian side. Fourteen of our ships are still waiting, and they currently do not have any problems.
NOTE:
📍#NATO deployed #Patriot air defences in #Türkiye from 2013–2016 under “Operation Active Fence” to counter #Syria missile threats — in Gaziantep, Kahramanmaraş and Adana, but not Malatya.
📍The batteries were later withdrawn, leaving a gap that pushed #Ankara toward the #Russian #S-400s.
📍Malatya matters: it hosts #NATO’s #Kürecik early-warning radar.
#NEW#Türkiye deploys a #Patriot air defence system in #Malatya, the defence ministry says.
The city hosts #NATO’s #Kürecik early-warning radar 📡 — a key part of the alliance’s missile defence network monitoring launches from the #MiddleEast, including #Iran. 🌍🚀

🔴NEW One year after calling on the outlawed #PKK to lay down arms, jailed leader #AbdullahÖcalan says “weapons become meaningless where democratic politics takes root.”
In a new letter, he describes ending armed struggle as a “mental break from violence” and urges a shift toward democratic integration, peace legislation and what he calls a “Democratic Republic.”
The question now is: what comes next?
İranlı güvenlik araştırmacısı Shanin Moddares'den dikkate değer bi teknik analiz
🚨✍🏻 Bölgesel durumun askeri analizi
Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, İsrail ile koordineli olarak, İran rejiminin İsrail'i ve Orta Doğu'ya yayılmış Amerikan üslerini hedef alarak misilleme yapacağı temel varsayımına dayanarak, İran'a karşı uzun vadeli bir askeri harekat planlıyor.
Şu anda bölgede en az 19 büyük ABD üssü ve stratejik komuta merkezi bulunmaktadır; bunlar arasında şunlar yer almaktadır:
• Katar'daki El Udeid Hava Üssü (ABD Merkez Komutanlığı Karargahı - CENTCOM)
•ABD Beşinci Filosu'nun karargahı Bahreyn'dedir.
• Kuveyt'teki Arifjan Kampı
•Suriye, Ürdün, Irak ve diğer bazı Körfez ülkelerindeki üslerine ek olarak.
Buradaki en önemli nokta, bu üslerin hepsinin kalıcı hava savunma sistemleriyle donatılmamış olmasıdır. Bazılarında yalnızca balistik füzelere karşı pratikte etkisiz olan kısa menzilli savunma sistemleri bulunmaktadır.
THAAD ve Patriot sistemlerinin yaygın olarak konuşlandırılması, Amerikalıların bu alanların neredeyse tamamını kapsayan bir füze savunma şemsiyesi oluşturmaya hazırlandığını gösteriyor.
Öte yandan, USS Abraham Lincoln uçak gemisinin Umman kıyıları açıklarında (siyah nokta) konuşlandırılması bekleniyor. Onu korumak için, Birleşik Arap Emirlikleri sınırları içinde bile hava savunma sistemleri konuşlandırıldı (kırmızı çizgi).
Ürdün'de konuşlandırılmış F-15 savaş uçakları ve Kıbrıs'taki İngiliz F-35 savaş uçakları ise taarruz operasyonlarına hazır değiller; birincil görevleri İsrail'i Şahed-131/136 gibi İran seyir füzelerine karşı savunmaktır.
Özet:
Bu büyüklükteki gelişmiş sistemlerden oluşan bir ağın lojistiği, koordinasyonu ve entegrasyonu uzun zaman alır ve bu süreç hala devam etmektedir.
Bu gecikme, birçok yorumcunun, medya kuruluşunun, gazetecinin ve sözde analistin öne sürmeye çalıştığının aksine, Trump'ın fikrini değiştirdiği anlamına gelmiyor.
Yapboz hâlâ tamamlanma aşamasında.
🚨✍🏻تحلیل نظامی منطقه
ایالات متحده همراه با اسرائیل در حال برنامهریزی برای یک کارزار نظامی طولانیمدت علیه ایران هستند؛ با این فرض اولیه که رژیم ایران در پاسخ، اسرائیل و پایگاههای آمریکا در خاورمیانه را هدف قرار خواهد داد.
در حال حاضر دستکم ۱۹ پایگاه اصلی و مرکز راهبردی آمریکا در منطقه وجود دارد؛ از جمله پایگاه هوایی العدید در قطر، مقر فرماندهی سنتکام، پایگاه ناوگان پنجم آمریکا در بحرین، اردوگاه Camp Arifjan در کویت و همچنین پایگاههایی در سوریه، اردن، عراق و کشورهای خلیجفارس.
نکته مهم این است که همه این پایگاهها دارای سامانه پدافند هوایی ثابت نیستند. برخی تنها به سامانههای دفاعی کوتاهبرد مجهز هستند که عملاً در برابر موشکهای بالستیک کارایی ندارند.
ورود گسترده سامانههای THAAD و Patriot نشان میدهد که آمریکاییها در حال آمادهسازی برای پوشش دفاع موشکی تقریباً همه پایگاهها هستند.
از سوی دیگر، پیشبینی میشود ناو هواپیمابر USS Abraham Lincoln در پشت سواحل عمان (نقطه سیاه) مستقر شود. برای حفاظت از آن، سامانههای پدافند هوایی حتی در امارات متحده عربی نیز مستقر شدهاند (مسیر مشخصشده با رنگ قرمز).
جنگندههای F-15 مستقر در اردن و جنگندههای F-35 بریتانیا در قبرس برای حمله طراحی نشدهاند، بلکه مأموریت اصلی آنها دفاع از اسرائیل در برابر پهپادهای انتحاری ایران مانند Shahed-131/136 است.
نکته کلیدی اینجاست:
لجستیک، هماهنگی و یکپارچهسازی چنین شبکهای از سامانههای پیشرفته زمانبر است و این فرایند همچنان ادامه دارد.
این تأخیر به معنای تغییر نظر ترامپ نیست؛ برخلاف آنچه بسیاری از مفسران، رسانهها، روزنامهنگاران و شبهتحلیلگران القا میکنند.
پازل هنوز در حال تکمیل شدن است.

Situation update in Aleppo:
Fierce clashes have been underway since 14:00 local time between the Damascus-led Syrian Army and SDF-affiliated internal security forces known as the Asayish. Since yesterday, Damascus-led authorities have opened humanitarian corridors for civilians to leave, and pro-government sources claim that more than 50,000 people have departed the area.
This map shows only visually confirmed locations where clashes are taking place. With the fighting still new and ongoing, few tangible advances have been reported so far. Visually confirmed footage indicates both sides are using artillery, RPGs, and drones; videos from yesterday also show Syrian army tanks.
Notably, the Syrian army has published coordinates for at least eight locations it says are Asayish/SDF positions and said it will target them. There are also reports of multiple civilian casualties, but the exact number remains difficult to verify.
Separately, the Syrian military’s chief of staff, Ali Na'asan, is reported to be in Aleppo for the first time since assuming his role and leading the operations room. There are also reports that, beyond the Aleppo-designated divisions, including the 60th Division led by former HTS commander Awad al-Jasim, the 62nd Division led by Abu Ashma, a key commander from the formerly Turkish-backed SNA factions whose division is in Hama, has also arrived to take part in the fighting, according to pro-government journalists on the ground.
We will post more updates as the situation evolves.

🇹🇷🇬🇷 TURKIYE – GREECE TENSION
🔥 Ankara responds to Greece’s FM Dendias
🇹🇷 Türkiye’s Defence Ministry slams Greek Defence Minister Nikos Dendias’s latest remarks as “tension-raising, unrealistic and detached from facts.”
📌 Ankara says it is closely monitoring all Greek military activities and warns that such statements undermine the positive atmosphere between the two leaders.
🇬🇷 Dendias had said Greece would “shut down the Aegean from the land” by deploying long-range missiles across the islands — a comment Türkiye deems destabilising.
🔴 The Pope’s visit has brought renewed focus to Türkiye’s Christian minority communities — their historical legacies, their current visibility, and the reforms still in progress.
