🇮🇱⚡️ Israel has achieved air superiority from western Iran to Tehran. IDF spokesperson Effi Defrin stated that over 70 fighter jets took part in a night operation targeting Tehran, striking ~40 sites including air defense systems.

Israeli aircraft and UAVs operated over the capital for 2.5 hours. “Tehran is no longer protected,” Defrin said.

Propaganda!
Why couldn't they destroy Iran then?
Most of their attacks were thwarted by Iran air defences.
I have been following the war because I want Israel to be humbled.
It has become a terrorist state under Terrorist Netanyahu.
I love Israelites.That man is a bloodletting terrorist.
Iran will triumph.

Israel's Defence Minister

lol
Who is the criminal now?
Is it not you?
Israel that invaded a sovereign nation.
Going as far as killing their citizens.
It is Israel that will burn for becoming a terrorist nation,killing babies,toddlers and PWD with relish.
God punishes the prideful.

Stilloracle:
Isreal is leading the scores.
Iran must fire more missiles.

Isreal is doing too much and becoming a problem in the middle east simply because they have backing of the US!

Not only US,France,UK including some Arab nations subjugated by USA.
Iran will triumph because Israel under Netanyahu has become a terrorist state,a genocidal nation.

bdon123:
Dont forget israel is all over Iranian airspace...imagine if israel decides to target civilian buildings

You are not following the news.They have been targeting and targeting and being thwarted by the Iran air defences.
Israel said they have planned this for more than a year even planted destroyer drones in Iran but God is the strength.

TruthU87:
The satanic Zionist setlers kind of forgot that Iran has the capability of shooting back

If you rely on western media,you will never get the true picture of things.
Israel too always censors their media not to report certain events even If 50 people are killed,they will say it is two killed and 48 injured.

HenryWilliams:
Another false narrative..
Do you know the distance between Israel and Iran.
Do you know how fast ballistic missiles fly? They go Mach 2. Distance between Iran and Israel not up to 1500km
Iran hasn't been launched there hypersonic missiles with deadly payload? These missiles can reach Tel-Aviv minutes after launch.
Sometimes..you people stick your head up Israel arse, y'all feel they're invincible..that they can't be touched or hurt.. the reason why most missiles fired from Iran end up getting neutralized is the fact that Tehran informs WASHINGTON anytime it wanted to attack or fire missiles into Israel. Sounds crazy but that's the fact.
Israel can be hurt by Iran. seriously hurt.
The only thing keeping Israel alive in the Middle East is the US. They know it, flaunt it and everyone just sits and bear it.

The funny thing is the U.S.A. most sophisticated defence system THAAD and all the dome,David sling and so on were overwhelmed by just a hundred missiles.
I read this morning that If Israel continues their aggression or try any trick,Iran is sending 2000 at a go.
Israel don buy market even with all the USA and France air defence systems helping them,there were too many destruction in Israel.Most of their F-15,16 etc have been hit.
I am sure that Iran already has nuclear capabilities.
If they are left with Israel,Israel is gone.

Military Expert: Israel Cannot Withstand Continued Iranian Strikes of This Magnitude
June 14, 2025 Reading Time: 5 mins read
A A

Colonel Hatam Kareem Al-Falahi, a prominent military strategist, has stated that Iran’s latest missile strikes on Israel mark a critical shift in Tehran’s response strategy. He explained that the operation was carried out under the cover of darkness, evading Israeli intelligence and satellite surveillance, revealing a significant advancement in Iran’s operational capabilities—despite recent internal security breaches.

In his military analysis of the evolving confrontation between Iran and the Zionist entity, Al-Falahi emphasised that Tehran deliberately exploited nighttime conditions to reduce Israel’s satellite detection advantage, aiming to reassert its strategic deterrence following Israeli attacks on Iranian command and control infrastructure.

Iran had earlier declared it launched a wide-scale missile offensive, firing hundreds of missiles, including—for the first time—missiles launched from submarines. Key Israeli military and leadership centres were struck, including the Ministry of Defense in Tel Aviv. Channel 13 described the resulting destruction as unprecedented.

Israeli Defence Systems Overwhelmed
Al-Falahi pointed out that Israel’s failure to intercept the overwhelming number of missiles demonstrates a critical vulnerability in its defence systems. He described it as a “missile saturation” scenario, where systems like the Iron Dome, David’s Sling, and U.S.-made THAAD and Arrow are simply not built to handle simultaneous multi-type attacks.

He explained that Iran used a mix of missiles with varied ranges, speeds, and altitudes, deliberately complicating Israel’s interception efforts. The missiles’ short flight time—mere minutes—put immense logistical pressure on Israel’s defences and left many targets unprotected.

Israeli media confirmed the launch of three successive missile waves, with multiple missiles striking central Tel Aviv. Dozens of Israeli civilians were injured, and widespread damage to buildings and vehicles was reported. The Ministry of Health placed hospitals on high alert.

“True Promise 3” and Iran’s Tactical Evolution
According to Al-Falahi, Operation “True Promise 3” demonstrates a noticeable evolution in Iranian military doctrine compared to previous responses. This time, Iran deployed hypersonic missiles—capable of descending from space at tremendous speed—with warheads exceeding 500 kilograms, drastically increasing their destructive capacity.

While some defensive interceptor missiles fell back into Israeli cities causing minor damage, the real devastation came from Iran’s ballistic missiles, which hit their targets with direct, calculated precision. This explains the total collapse of several buildings and destruction of entire floors in Tel Aviv.

The IRGC confirmed that the strike targeted dozens of critical sites in retaliation for the Israeli assassination of senior Iranian commanders and nuclear scientists. Tehran vowed to continue striking if Israeli aggression persisted.

Despite recent blows to Iran’s military leadership, Al-Falahi said the fact that Iran still delivered such a strike reflects its unshaken resolve to establish a new deterrence equation. He added that future Iranian responses may become even more accurate and focused once command structures fully stabilise following Israel’s earlier decapitation attempts.

A Regional Shift and Foreign Involvement
Interestingly, Israel was not alone in defending itself. According to Al-Falahi, U.S. and French military assets assisted Israel in intercepting some of the missiles—a sign of how seriously the Iranian operation challenged regional security dynamics.

American officials confirmed that U.S. forces participated in defence operations during the missile wave. Meanwhile, Israel hinted it may retaliate by targeting Iranian civilian infrastructure, including economic and energy sites. Tehran, in turn, warned that any such action will trigger a harsher response.

Shrinking Israeli Target Bank
Al-Falahi noted that Israel ordered its population to remain in shelters for extended periods—revealing its concern that more waves could follow. Prime Minister Netanyahu echoed this, claiming Israel had struck Iranian nuclear centres and senior commanders—but also admitted military operations were ongoing.

However, Al-Falahi warned that Israel’s “target bank” is shrinking. After striking nearly 300 sites, further Israeli escalation would likely focus on nuclear facilities in Arak, Fordow, and Isfahan. He added that Iran may preemptively relocate its nuclear infrastructure to avoid a future surprise attack.

Iran Preparing for Prolonged War
Al-Falahi stressed that Iran is clearly preparing for a long-term war of attrition, with expectations that upcoming operations may involve low-altitude drones, which are harder to detect and can bypass Israeli radar. This would allow Iran to strike strategic targets deep inside Israel, exploiting gaps in Israeli military coordination.

He warned that continued Iranian strikes could corner Israel, making it difficult to maintain the current pace of escalation. Internal pressure, rising casualties, and economic cost may eventually force Israel to accept international mediation, a possibility floated by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

As Netanyahu threatens continued responses, he has attempted to rally the Iranian public against their leadership. However, Al-Falahi dismissed this tactic as psychological warfare, predicting it will fail—especially after Israel’s inability to stop the Iranian missile onslaught.

If the U.S. Intervenes, the Conflict Will Widen
Finally, Al-Falahi cautioned that direct U.S. involvement in strikes on Iranian territory would likely escalate the conflict regionally. Tehran may then open new fronts, expanding the battlefield and drawing in additional actors—something that would not serve regional stability nor U.S. interests in the long run.

SoftSport:
Obi’s claim is not true, Tinubu did not borrow more than the last three presidents and to be fair, he’s really trying his best to fix the economy and move the country forward.

Tinubu borrowed $9.9 billion sincr coming on board but he has paid more than $12 billion debt.

Gboom:
Most Nigerian musician earnings are hyped, not real figures, and the earnings is not totally theirs. Even to pay the band boys is difficult for them at times after touring abroad

Osimhen has his football lifespan spelt out for him.
Musicians do not mostly have lifespan like footballers. They can be there almost forever and will continue to collect royalties for their songs till they die.
Footballers don't have that privilege,reason they dont spend like musicians.

Liar.
Tinubu didn't say that rubbish.
Tinubu never said that.

franchasofficia:
Late Ooni of Ife Oba Sijuade also told same story before my eyes.


Tinubu's brand of ethnocentric politics is destroying the previously good nature of Yorubas and they don't know. To them, everything today is a tribal battle or supremacy battle with the Igbos.


Any Yoruba that doesn't believe this should go back and read the history and story of Moremi and why she is highly celebrated in Ile Ife till date.


Instead of them to go back to history and ask questions from the custodians of Yoruba culture like the Ooni of Ife, they prefer to be cursing Igbos and throwing tantrums around, na them sabi my brother

It is Ugbo not Igbo:

The Olugbo of Ugbo in Ondo State, Oba Frederick Obateru Akinruntan, has said Ile Ife in Osun State, regarded as the cradle of the Yoruba people, belongs to his fathers who had settled there long before Oduduwa and his entourage came to settle in the ancient town.

Oba Akinruntan, who spoke on Saturday during the finale of activities to mark his 11th year on the throne, said Obamakin Osangangan, his progenitor, was the first ruler of Ile Ife.


He said empirical and historical facts abound to support his claims, adding that anybody with contrary opinions or facts should openly come out to challenge him.




On his people’s view of Moremi, regarded as an heroine in Ile Ife, Oba Akinruntan stated that she betrayed his people.

“She exposed the secret of our war tactics to Ife people. To us she is a betrayer, however, whatever points directly at somebody may have its back against another,” he noted.

On the development strides in his kingdom since he came to the throne, the Chairman of the Ondo State Council of Traditional Rulers said opening up the place for development and ensuring peace and harmony were his achievements.

Afrowits:
Lol. I love ur response. They always want to feel that they are better than others or they are in competition with other tribes. There was never a time in History where the Igbo we're mention in any of our Yoruba History and I just keep wondering how and where did they get all this their false narrative of history from.

Only God knows where they got their history from after they have claimed to be Jew and rejected through DNA, the next best thing to them is claiming Ile Ife.

Gboom:
No musician in Nigeria can match the income of Osimhen
How many Nigerian musicians make 50k dollars a week from streaming on social or once in a while show

And for how many years compared to musicians like Wizkid,Davido,Burnaboy etc that can make $1million in a day.
It was recently reported that Davido did a wedding show in India for $10 million dollars.
Musicians do not mostly have lifespan like footballers. They can be there almost forever and will continue to collect royalties for their songs till they die.
Footballers don't have that privilege,reason they dont spend like musicians.

This is all Osimhen has made uni his pro career:

2017-2018: Approximately €232,000 per year at VfL Wolfsburg.
2018-2019: €189,000 per year at R.C. Sporting Charleroi.
2019-2020: €1.3 million per year at LOSC Lille.
2020-2021: €5.7 million per year at Napoli.
2021-2022 and 2020-2021: €5.7 million per year at Napoli.
2022-2023: €4.8 million per year at Napoli.
2023-2024: €10.7 million per year at Napoli.
2024-2025: €8.4 million per year at Napoli.
2025-2026: While there are reports about his current salary at Galatasaray, specific figures are not readily available. There are reports that he's on a salary of €21 million per year at Galatasaray.

Satya1:
Igbos the most intelligent black people
Hate it or love it . The igbo is on top

lol
People that learnt how to wear clothes in 1920.
How can you even write that kind of nonsense.
Yorubas have never walked naked and they had their Oyo Empire in 1300 CE.

How possible can it be for people walking naked to found Ile Ife which is the source?
No be madness be dat?

lol
This Yoruba Igbo wahala again.
Can't Igbos face their region for once?
What is this with Igbos and covetousness.Abi na curse?

Rubber snake...mtchewwww.
That is surely a doll rubber snake.

Gboom:
Surely, not a Nigerian or African musicians

Yes,Nigerian musicians of course.
Name one footballer that is richer than our musicians.

KingAzubuike:
Same $300k na weytin many footballers dey earn in a week or max 2 weeks. This life is just somehow.

Musicians earn more than footballers generally.

That is almost half a billion naira.
$300,000 is equal to #461,964,000.

Tradepunter2:
Wrong the horn is nothing compared to the tusk of certain seal lion species the polar bear encounters.... You guys always forget intelligence.... Polar bears have the highest intelligence that's why humans are part of their diet..... Gorilla will inflict some damage with grabbing and biting... But will eventually die....

In a confrontation, rhinos would likely be victorious against polar bears. Rhinos possess a significant size and weight advantage, along with a powerful horn and strong, durable body, making them a formidable opponent.

Polar bears are powerful predators, but their size and strength are still likely insufficient to overcome the rhino's armor and weaponry.
Rhino tops anyday.

The rhino likely has the best chance of surviving. Its size, thick skin, and powerful horns make it a formidable opponent for the other animals. While the polar bear is also strong, the rhino's ability to charge and inflict serious damage gives it a significant advantage.

Igirigimercenar:
. They are here

The bad belles

You go explain tire!

Some people want to be successful through the back door by using fake stats just like they used fake WAEC ranking for more than 10 years until people inquired from WAEC and WAEC said they do not rank because they are in 5 African nations.
They have never ranked.
If reality negates stats,then the stats are fake.

Ofodirinwa:
This is an accumulation of several metrics (educations, life expectancy, health care, standard of living, GDP, development)
Are the results what you expect?

Some stats are just off the rail at times.
The highest HDI is surely amongst the Yorubas and this is very apparent in the achievements of each region.

Yorubas control almost all sectors of the economy both in Nigeria and as Nigerians abroad.

Young man, provide stats in education and stop making unnecessary noise

This is the highest level of Stats from NUC...
SW has always led in Education since time immemorial.

davodyguy:
The was some of these illiterates bastardised the word billionaire.

Same way they claimed Someone from the East is richer than $34b, when Dangote the richest in Africa doesn't even have $30b

There is no Igbo person that is worth $1 billion.

YourKarma:
Gibberish. Provide the stats to back-up your words, don't be regurgitating crap for me. Provide 1 stat where the SW is higher than the SE in Education.

Lest I forget, there's a new stat on FP; cities with best economy in Nigeria. Lagos is the only SW city in the top 10 while 4 SE cities occupy the top 10

See eh, the SW is in decline. That's the honest truth whether you choose to admit it or not. Since after Pa Awolowo, the other leaders in SW have focused on dragging y'all back but you're blinded by parochial sentiments to know this. Tinubu is doing an equally marvelous job at this.

Remember, the SE region was destroyed during the civil war and everyone who had money in the bank in SE was given 20pounds no matter the thousands or millions they had in the bank back then. Those guys started from zero but look at where they currently are.

If e easy, do am

Yet night buses to the SW from SE is an everyday event.
Name one SE business that is up to even 48 years.
You don't have any.
I can name Yoruba businesses that are more than 100,90,80 years and still active.

Name one single tangible business SE people have abroad.
None except powder.
I can name 10 Yoruba businesses abroad and their links.
Almost in all spheres of life,SW trumps SE.

PHIPEX:
Full ignorance on display. Lieraracy is measured by primary school attendance. Those in shops are already done with schools. That's why they easily outsmart you in figures and logic.

Compare their IQ with the almajiris on the street

Look at stark ignorance.
The definition of illiteracy and how it is measured can vary across countries and regions, leading to different interpretations of literacy rates.
While primary education is a vital component in the development of literacy, illiteracy is not solely determined by it. Other factors, such as socioeconomic conditions, language proficiency, and the ability to apply literacy skills in real-world contexts, also play a significant role. This is where you would know that SW people are more educated than SE because they have been,able to apply their education to achieve more by having highest number of lawyers,doctors,engineers,ICT gurus etc.
They excel even abroad more than the SE people.

PHIPEX:
5mins research would have saved you from globalising your ignorance. What's the population of Oyo and SE? Continue to hid under your massive failures while the North catches up with you

Continue with your delusion.
The North has already pushed SE into the latrine educationally.


https://www.nuc.edu.ng/

According to the NUC website which can be accessed seamlessly by any interested researcher,there is now a shift and a takeover by the Northerners as the Igbos are pushed off the sidewalk of Professorship into the 3rd position in the rank of who has the higher number of Professors between the two educational gladiators.

SW still continues to be the stallion and champion of Education in Nigeria as the number of their Professors is almost triple that of the Igbos according to the Directory of full Professors in Nigerian Universities.
Kudos to the gallant Igbos just as the Northerners are also heralded into the second position of Professorial hierarchy in Nigeria.
Welcome..

PHIPEX:
Keep deceiving yourself. How many Igbo kids have you seen out of school in Lagos?

Is your region the only one accommodating others?

Millions of them in those 2×2 shops not going to school are what?
Add that to those under the bridge and those that do not have any bearing at all.

YourKarma:
LOlz. you sent a link to the NUC website? hahahah

SHow me read data, not sentimental bullshit. The era where y'all pedal lies as truth is over.

Literacy rate determined by percentage showing the one of 2021 takes into account the population.
If 3 people out of 4 are educated in the SE.
6 out of 9 are educated in SW.
The percentage goes to the SE with only 3 educated people but SW has more educated people with 6,,the remaining uneducated people are usually the Nwaboys and Almajiris.

This is how we know an educated region:

SW 99% of the youngest PhD holders in NIGERIA.
SE has none...

Here is a list of the youngest PhD holders in Nigeria. The oldest is just 26.

1. Dr. Olabisi Adeyemi, 26



This young intellectual earned her PhD in Botany from the University of Lagos. Though she had maintained a track record of academic success right from her secondary school, she acknowledged that having a PhD at her age, and the record of being the best graduating PhD student, did not come easy.

Born in Lagos Island local government of Lagos state, Dr. Adeyemi attended Girls’ Academy, Lagos Island where she was the best student in WAEC, with seven distinctions. She proceeded to University of Lagos and graduated with a first class degree in botany in 2006. She completed her PhD in record time in 2012.

2. Dr. Opeyemi Shodipe, 25



This young Nigerian scholar received her bachelor’s degree at 19 from Babcock University. After the mandatory NYSC programme, she entered for a masters at University of Ibadan, graduating best in her department.

She capped it with a well-deserved doctorate degree in information science from her alma mater, Babcock University when she was 25.

3. Dr. Salihu Dasuki Nakande, 25

Born in October 1987, he is one of Nigeria’s youngest PhD holders, and arguably the youngest in northern Nigeria. He graduated with a first class degree in information technology from Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU), North Cyprus at 21.

Dr. Salihu completed his Master’s degree at Brunel University, UK. He capped it with a PhD from the same university in 2012.

4. Dr. Olaoluwa Hallowed Oluwadara, 24



Acclaimed as one of Africa’s youngest PhD holders, Olaoluwa is a spectacular Nigerian intellectual and scholar, because of his achievements. He entered university for a bachelor’s degree at 15. He earned two B.Sc degrees in mathematics and physics, from University of Bangui, Central African Republic (CAR), run simultaneously. He received his master’s degree from the same university.

He crowned it with a PhD in mathematics at the University of Lagos, Akoka, where he was the best graduating PhD student. Dr. Olaoluwa H. Oluwadara won University of Bangui’s all-time best student award from the department of mathematics, best BSc student award in physics, 2007 and best MSc awards in physics and mathematics respectively in 2008. He currently is a research fellow of the Mathematical Analysis and Optimisation Research Group.


5. Dr. Nkemehule Karl Omebere-Iyari, 22

Dr. Omebere-Iyari, received his PhD in chemical engineering from University of Nottingham, UK, in 2006, then aged 22. This amazing Nigerian, an old student of Kings College, Lagos had 8 As in his WAEC result at age 16.

He was the best graduating student in chemical engineering that year. With a university scholarship, Omebere-Iyari wasted no time, and pursued his PhD. He received a EU grant of €17,000 every year, and finished his doctorate in the record time of three years, specializing in multi-phase flow. Omebere-Iyari has distinguished himself as an exceptionally gifted Nigerian.

Since graduation, he has worked with many multinational corporations such as Shell, Halliburton, etc. He earned an MBA with distinction from INSEAD/Wharton, and is a member of many professional groups.

6. Dr. Romola Adeola, 26



26 year-old, Romola Adeola recently made headlines when she set a record in being the youngest person to obtain a Doctor of Laws degree (LLD) in the 30-year history of the Centre for Human Rights at the University of Pretoria.

She is also the second youngest person to achieve this in the Faculty of Law, University of Pretoria since its establishment 107 years ago.

She distinguished herself by completing the LLD in under 3 years. This record is in keeping with a pattern of excellence which Romola has maintained since her undergraduate years at Lagos State University (LASU) where she was awarded the Taslim Olawale Elias Prize for the Best Student in International Law.
