aragchi appeared to confirm that some GBU 57 penetrators which the us used on fordo did not explode

these are the latest upgraded variants
the us delivered it intact to iran

a specialized missile that cost half a billion to develop and isn't exported handed over to the axis due to arrogance




hegemony munitions have always had a concerning failure rate
but it is shocking that there has been no fix

the israelis are threatening the americans that they will sabotage negotiations by unilaterally attacking iran's ballistic missile facilities

this is noise about one of their contingency plans
which is that israel will start the attacks and the us will join in due to their defense pact with israel
when iran retaliates

the yanks will tell the arabs that israel went rogue and they had to honor decades-old commitments to israel




pretty sure that'll destroy negotiations as a viable tool for resolving the nuclear issue
as is israel's aim

yes

but they can't use it
since they have no aircraft large enough to deploy it

they'd almost certainly send the munition to china/russia
or invite the russians and chinese to inspect it within iran

they are also already developing an upgraded ballistic missile incorporating tech in the gbu penetrator
to increase lethality

mahmoud nabavian
member of iran's parliament

Before the negotiations, Trump contacted Iran through a regional country, conveying a message saying 'let us strike two locations in Iran—and you can respond symbolically'

Iran rejected this offer, and replied that any attack would lead to a response in which at least 3000 to 4000 American soldiers would be killed. Furthermore, we would strike every single major company in the region that is U.S.-owned or has ties to America.'

aragchi, foreign minister of iran

'We neither trust the Americans nor rule out the possibility of deception and trickery. We know very well this possibility exists.

In all the meetings, I have said: this might be a deception—let no one be deceived.

Everyone should go about their work and complete their regular tasks as if we are not negotiating at all, whether it is the armed forces, the government, or anywhere else.'

I've explained this before and also the video is self-explanatory. The soldier would be forced to storm enemy positions, strongholds and vehicles and blow themselves up, using a modified tank mine that has been turned into a bomb. If you claim that the soldier doesn't want to die and he'll refuse, why didn't he refuse them strapping a mine to him?
How will someone who's not ready to die be forced to storm strongholds when he would be seen from afar, vehicles when he would be killed before coming close. This is logical reasoning bro. It does not make any sense especially in a warfare whereby drones are monitoring the skies and most battles are done in the open where the buffer zone between enemy lines is almost impossible to walk through undetected. If the bomb works that way you think the soldier won't run into those forcing him to storm enemy lines and not kuku take all of them along with him? If you say it is remote controlled , how will they see the soldier nor knows when he's in position already to press the button and detonate the bomb?

It just doesn't make any sense . The more you try to explain the more S.t.U.P....iD it's making you appear. Just give it up already honestly 😂😂😂

JUST IN:

Iran's foreign minister has confirmed that unexploded US bombs remain inside Iranian nuclear facilities struck in June 2025 including 14-ton GBU-57 bunker-buster bombs that failed to detonate at the Fordow Nuclear Facility.


Extraction will not be easy but it would be a great slap to Uncle Sam if it ends up in the hands of Russia

⚡Rostec will showcase an unmanned rescue boat for the first time at the World Defense Show.

In Riyadh, the latest civilian unmanned robotic maritime system R SAVER 1 will make its debut. It is designed for the rapid delivery of rescue equipment and special gear to the site of maritime emergencies. For example to a vessel in distress or to offshore oil and gas facilities.

The unmanned boat can deliver cargo over distances of up to 800 km at speeds of up to 50 km h. At the same time, the drone can carry a maximum payload of up to 600 kg.

This development will significantly speed up response efforts and the elimination of consequences from emergency situations.

⚡Ukraine's embassy in Moscow charged $71,000 in unpaid electricity bills.

Ukraine unilaterally severed all diplomatic ties with Russia in 2022

Since then, the Ukrainian embassy in Moscow and the Russian embassy in Kiev have remained empty.

⚡Turkey is advancing a political initiative aimed at integrating Hamas into any future Palestinian political framework.

Ankara is holding open talks with Hamas leadership while also applying political pressure on the Palestinian Authority — including through the Turkish Consulate in Jerusalem.

Israeli officials warn that this constitutes 'hostile political interference', and undermines Israeli security interests - Maariv

⚡Senior Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal:

"The world is realizing that Israel is a moral burden, a political burden, an economic burden as well, it's bleeding the money from the United States."

Here is an article and a video of Russian soldiers storming Ukrainian positions using the same modified anti tank mine that they strapped to that African. The only difference here is that the mine is not strapped to the Russian but is instead carried like a bomb.



https://militarnyi.com/en/news/russian-attempted-to-reach-ukrainian-positions-with-tm-62-mine-but-was-stopped-and-neutralized-by-fpv-drone/

You keep saying that this idea of storming strongholds with a modified anti tank mine turned bomb doesn't make sense. Well Russia didn't seem to get that memo either and are employing this "tactic that doesn't make sense" with varying successes and failures as seen in the article and video.

Who knows, maybe having many of their men die like the soldier in the video could make them want to look for alternatives to wasting a Russian's life. And this is where "African disposable soldier" comes in.

Dude makes it seems like using mines as a suicide bomb is something new, The japs did it in WW2, terrorists modified anti tank mines and used it for suicide attacks

A anti tank or anti personnel mine are explosives, which can be modified to be used as anyone wishes
