Travel advisory update

[TravelGov @TravelGov]

Middle East: Americans currently in the Middle East should exercise caution and heightened vigilance and should be prepared for flight cancellations, periodic airspace closures, and potential travel disruptions. Some airlines in the region have postponed resumption of earlier flight schedules; others have cancelled some routes. Americans in the region should consider departing, or be prepared to depart should there be escalation. Americans outside the Middle East should seriously reconsider travel to and through the region. Those who do travel to or from the region should monitor information about airport and airline operations. U.S. diplomatic facilities, including outside the Middle East, have been targeted. Iran and groups supportive of Iran may target other U.S. interests overseas or at locations associated with the United States and Americans throughout the world, including U.S. businesses and other institutions.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

“The U.S.A. is locked and loaded and ready to go against the Islamic Republic of Iran, at levels of Military Terror, Strength, and Power not seen since World War II. Despite this, we have just been asked by Iran, and other Middle Eastern Countries, to hold off any attack in that the perimeters of a deal has been agreed to. This would include the Immediate, Complete, and Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT…” - President Donald J. Trump

[Rapid Response 47 @RapidResponse47]

.@POTUS on Iran: "They always want to talk but they break their word so often... We have great people talking... but, they'll make a deal—as an example, we'll talk about nuclear, and we'll be in there talking about nuclear for seven hours... and they'll go out, and they'll say, 'We never discussed nuclear.'"

[U.S. Central Command - Arabic @CENTCOMArabic]

🚫 ادعاء: تزعم الحكومة الإيرانية مجدداً أنها أغلقت مضيق هرمز. هذا الادعاء غير صحيح.

✅ الحقيقة: لا يزال مضيق هرمز مفتوحاً أمام حركة السفن التجارية، وإيران لا تسيطر عليه. عبرت آلاف السفن هذا الممر المائي الدولي خلال الأشهر الأربعة الماضية.

[Rapid Response 47 @RapidResponse47]

.@POTUS on Iran: "We just want to win... It's very simple: they cannot have a nuclear weapon."

[U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM]

🚫 CLAIM: Once again, the Iranian government claims it has closed the Strait of Hormuz. This is FALSE.

✅ FACT: The Strait of Hormuz remains open for commercial vessel transit. Iran does not control it. Thousands of ships have sailed through the international waterway over the past four months.

[Department of State @StateDept]

.@SecRubio: "The International Criminal Court is an illegitimate international organization that claims even if you are not a member of that court, that they can come after you."

[الخارجية الأمريكية @USAbilAraby]

توصّل مجلس السلام إلى اتفاق تاريخي يقضي بنزع السلاح الكامل لحركة حماس وكافة الجماعات المسلحة الأخرى في قطاع غزة، في خطوة هائلة نحو تحقيق السلام والأمن الدائمين.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

Today, the Board of Peace reached a HISTORIC agreement for the COMPLETE DISARMAMENT of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza.

A monumental step toward lasting PEACE and SECURITY.

[U.S. Central Command - Arabic @CENTCOMArabic]

واصلت وسائل الإعلام الرسمية الإيرانية، خلال الساعات القليلة الماضية، نشر مزاعم كاذبة صادرة عن الحرس الثوري الإيراني، وتحديداً ثلاث إدعاءات:

🚫 الادعاء الأول: يزعم الحرس الثوري (مجدداً) أن المسارات الحرة والمفتوحة عبر مضيق هرمز تشكل خطراً على السفن التجارية.
✅ الحقيقة: إن المخاطر المباشرة التي تهدد السفن التجارية وأطقمها المدنية تتمثل في التهديدات اللفظية ومحاولات الهجوم التي يقوم بها الحرس الثوري.

🚫 الادعاء الثاني: يزعم الحرس الثوري تدمير ثلاث مقاتلات أمريكية من طراز إف-35 الشبحية وثلاث طائرات أخرى خلال هجوم إيراني أخير على قاعدة جوية أمريكية.
✅ الحقيقة: لم تتعرض أي طائرة أمريكية للتدمير أو الضرر في محاولات الهجوم الإيرانية الأخيرة. تم اعتراض جميع الصواريخ والطائرات المسيرة، كما أنها فشلت في الوصول إلى المناطق المستهدفة.

🚫 الادعاء الثالث: تروج وسائل الإعلام الرسمية الإيرانية لأنباء تفيد بأن ناقلة نفط تجارية تُدعى نورا (M/T Nora) قد اخترقت الحصار الأمريكي.
✅ الحقيقة: لم تخترق السفينة التجارية الحصار الأمريكي المحكم. لا تزال أكثر من 20 سفينة حربية أمريكية، ومئات الطائرات، وآلاف العسكريين في حالة يقظة تامة ويواصلون فرض الحصار بشكل كامل.

[U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM]

Over the past few hours, Iranian state media have continued to report false claims by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) – three in particular.

🚫 FIRST CLAIM: The IRGC (again) claims free and open routes through the Strait of Hormuz are dangerous for commercial vessels.
✅ FACT: The immediate dangers posed to commercial vessels and their civilian crews are the IRGC’s verbal threats and attempted attacks.

🚫 SECOND CLAIM: The IRGC claims Three U.S. F-35 stealth fighters and three other aircraft were destroyed during a recent Iranian attack on an American air base.
✅ FACT: No U.S. aircraft were destroyed or damaged in recent attempted Iranian attacks. All missiles and drones were intercepted or failed to reach targeted areas.

🚫 THIRD CLAIM: Iranian state media is reporting that a commercial oil tanker, M/T Nora, has broken through the U.S. blockade.
✅ FACT: The commercial vessel has not broken through America’s steel wall blockade. More than 20 U.S. warships, hundreds of aircraft, and thousands of service members remain vigilant and continue to fully enforce the blockade.

بدأت القوات الأمريكية اليوم في الساعة الثامنة مساءً بتوقيت الساحل الشرقي للولايات المتحدة، شن ضربات ضد إيران. تُعد هذه الضربات رداً قوياً على محاولات الهجوم الإيرانية التي وقعت أمس واستهدفت القوات الأمريكية المتمركزة في الشرق الأوسط.

[U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM]

U.S. forces began launching strikes against Iran at 8 p.m. ET today. The strikes are a powerful response to yesterday's attempted Iranian attacks on U.S. forces based in the Middle East.
