🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — NEW: President Trump has told aides he is open to ending the U.S. military campaign against Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed, according to WSJ, citing administration officials.

➡️ He and his team concluded that reopening the waterway would likely extend the conflict beyond his preferred four- to six-week timeline.

➡️ Instead, the U.S. aims to weaken Iran’s naval and missile capabilities before scaling back operations and shifting to diplomatic pressure to restore shipping.

➡️ If diplomacy fails, Washington will press European and Gulf allies to take the lead in reopening the strait.

🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡- "The United States of America is in serious discussions with A NEW, AND MORE REASONABLE, REGIME to end our Military Operations in Iran.

Great progress has been made but, if for any reason a deal is not shortly reached, which it probably will be, and if the Hormuz Strait is not immediately “Open for Business,” we will conclude our lovely “stay” in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island (and possibly all desalinization plants!), which we have purposefully not yet “touched.” This will be in retribution for our many soldiers, and others, that Iran has butchered and killed over the old Regime’s 47 year “Reign of Terror.”

Thank you for your attention to this matter," - President Trump.

🇾🇪⚡️- Ansarullah's Full statement:

In implementation of what was stated in the last statement of the Yemeni Armed Forces regarding direct military intervention in support of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the resistance fronts in Lebanon, Iraq, and Palestine, and in view of the continued military escalation, the targeting of infrastructure, and the perpetration of crimes and massacres against our brothers in Lebanon, Iran, Iraq, and Palestine.
The Yemeni Armed Forces, with the help of Allah Almighty and relying upon Allah, have carried out the first military operation using a barrage of ballistic missiles targeting sensitive Israeli military sites in southern occupied Palestine.

This operation coincided with the heroic operations carried out by our mujahideen brothers in Iran and Hezbollah in Lebanon. By the grace of Allah Almighty, the operation successfully achieved its objectives.

Our operations, with Allah's help, will continue until the declared objectives are achieved, as stated in the previous statement by the Armed Forces, and until the aggression against all fronts of the resistance ceases.
