Though this is a good news but it's already an old news. The latest news is that, a clandestine base in the UAE was just destroyed by Iran.

Hala Iran.

Iran has Russian Intel and backing. So the war continues despite Iran not really having a national leader.

Same way the West is making it difficult for Russia to win Ukraine easily by their support with funds and ammo, same way Russia is aiding and siding Iran so that US will not have a quick victory like DT expected.

White people are something else abeg.

They will support a villain so far as they are protecting their interests in other people's countries cry

For those that may not know, this aircraft was parked at an Airport in Saudi Arabia, not that it was shot down flying in Iran's airspace.


I love what Iran is doing of late since US and Israel paused military attacks on Iran based on Trump's 11 day ultimatum.


When they resume with full force and wrath, I don't want to hear Israel or US is committing genocide in Iran. The people clapping for Iran now should also remember how Iran have been messing around bombing their fellow Gulf neighbors.



UAE government have already revoked over 10,000 permanent resident permits issued to Iranian people many years ago and also canceled the gold visa for Iranians.

Make Una continue clapping for Iran and cheering Iran to doom shocked cheesy

I asked you again, mention a single country Iran has ever attacked.

Will you dold your hand and watch especially one that has been sponsoring violence everywhere. Who is bankrolling hamas, Hezbollah houthi etc. who?? Stop forming ignorance. The hatred you people have for Israel is a satanic one. Make una amend una ways. Except perhaps you support Iran cus it's a Muslim country cus of your religion 😏😏😏

Hala Iran.
Russia is certainly giving Iran intel. I think it is payback time for all the intel they gave and is still giving to Ukraine. If the U.S attempts a ground invasion, they may succeed, but..... Half of their invading forces will be wiped out. Iran is a very big country and it is not going to be easy to occupy them.

Get your facts right. US and Israel didn’t pause anything. They are still bombing Iran till this moment. It’s only that attention is more focused on Iran bombing Israel because of their mouth.

US and Israel know Iran has moved most ammunition’s underground more than 30 years. That’s why they keep bombing everywhere.

They bombed a steel company a few days ago because they believe without steel, Iran can’t make those drones. Meanwhile, Iran has hundreds of thousands of those drones underground.

B2 don bomb tire but Iran keeps sending its little missiles. US sef know say dem don meet their match.

I bet you, Israel and the US can’t sustain the war for another one month. They will run out of interceptors. That’s a fact! It will now be a free fall for Israel. That’s why the US is rushing to get a ceasefire deal.

I pray iran doesn’t listen because I still wan check something.

Israel has been throwing bombs. That's what they do. Iranians don't flinch for bombs. Isreal is run when they hear sirens. The mindsets are different. Avoid patient and quiet people. Iran has been extremely patient with the bullying. They were left with not choice. Israel and US would have attacked even if Iran publicly called them master. That has always been the aim. Destroy Iran so Israel becomes the king of the middle east. Iran never bent to western interest which was destruction of the Palestinians. Respect.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15688639/Dramatic-photos-destroyed-US-Air-Force-planes-Iranian-missile-attack-left-troops-seriously-injured.html
Fake news!
1. The Photos are From 2009
​The images shown in the post are not from a 2026 Iranian missile strike. They actually depict a U.S. Air Force E-3 Sentry that caught fire during takeoff at Nellis Air Force Base (Nevada, USA) in August 2009. The aircraft's tail number, 81-0005, matches the 2009 incident.
​2. Fake Source URLs
​The URL provided in the forum post is designed to look like a legitimate Daily Mail link, but it is fabricated.
​The article ID 15688639 does not correspond to a current report of an Iranian attack.
​Major news outlets like The Telegraph or Daily Mail have not reported on any such "precision strike" on Prince Sultan Air Base in March 2026.
​3. Contextual Clues
​The Date: The forum timestamp says March 29, 2026. However, the photos are nearly 17 years old.

For the school that was bombed, no sane human will be happy that kids future was cut short, and nobody was celebrating that the school was bombed unlike those that was celebrating that innocent women, kids and elderly was kidnapped on Oct 7th

ElevationD:
Take a look at the map of the Middle East. That map should show you the sizes of the countries there. Carefully look at the sizes of Israel, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Iraq. Add Jordan to it, leaving out the rest.

If since 1948, Israel has not been wiped away from the map of the world and so far have expanded the size, where is your hope? A small Israel, systematically inflicting destruction on a mighty Iran and seven armed proxies.

That’s how you all praised Hamas. Now Hamas has become extinct, just as Hezbollah is going extinct.

While you focus on an American aircraft, why not tell yourself the truth that internet in Iran is restricted due to propaganda, not letting the people share the true stories of the massive scale of destruction happening there?

While you rejoice and bear some false hope, do not forget that if presented with an opportunity to visit either the USA or Iran, you will without delay choose the USA and even beg for their citizenship.

Before the war, the Iranian Air Force had around 400-600 aircraft, with approximately 300-400 being combat-capable. Here's a breakdown of their fleet before the war:

Combat Aircraft: 286, including F-4 Phantoms, F-5 Tigers, F-14 Tomcats, MiG-29s, and Su-24s
Helicopters: 160, including Bell 214s, AB206s, and AH-1Js
Transport Aircraft: 81, including C-130s, Il-76s, and Boeing 707s
Trainers:88, including PC-7s, MFI-17s, and Yak-130s

Some notable aircraft in their inventory include:
F-14 Tomcat: 41, with 27 operational
F-4 Phantom II: 63, with 47 operational
MiG 29: 30, with 24 operational
Su-24: 30, with 23 operational

Ask yourself where the aircrafts are now located? The answer? Iron kwaden. By the way, how many were able to fly and fight? Why are they not able to carry out bombing missions in Israel and against US interests in the Middle East? Their new found address is iron kwaden empty lands.

They are all destroyed.
How would they be replaced? No one knows. Their economy would finally in tatters after the war and rebuilding would be near impossible. All their investments in other Middle Eastern countries would be seized to be used to fix damages caused by them.

Where would you be by then? On Nairaland shinning your eyes with no solution.

That said, we must feel some pity for the innocent and decent Iranian citizens put under lock and key by the vicious Mullahs. One hopes that they find some strength to fight and liberate themselves from those who have held them bondage for forty seven years. Our sympathy goes to their women, those who are labeled as slaves and are treated as so. May they all be saved.
Ode ni e. That’s to tell you that Iran is not interested in wiping off Israel. It’s guilty conscience that’s worrying Israel.

You and I know that nearly all munitions being used in attacking Iran come from the West, especially the US. So who is Iran fighting.

In June last year, all Gulf countries helped Israel to intercept missiles from Iran. That’s more than 7 countries.
Imagine 50% of those missiles were able to find their ways to hit Israel. What’s going to be the result?

In this war also, those countries still came out to help the US and Israel. That’s why Iran is trying to neutralize those US bases being used by Israel and the US.

It may only take time, Israel will still get wiped out. It may not be from Iran. It may be from those countries helping it today. Just expect that only Al-aqsa area will be left untouched.

Does Iran have any fighter jets. Asking for a friend.
Hezbollah fires rocket at Israel, is a big news for u, hamas fires na news, Iran fires missiles at planes expected in a war.
By the way I thought Iran has destroyed all American planes, bases and aircraft carrier already (in your dreams).
Even boko haram fires missiles.
Meanwhile Iran has no defenses against Israeli bombers turning Teran into GAZA 2

The US and Isreal killed Iranian leaders, but Iran has refused or is scared to kill Trump and Net, but innocent civilian neighbors and civilian Israelis. Is that good?

If Iran keeps going for civilian, then I have no choice than to pray for the worst.

That’s what you keep regurgitating. The world has moved on. Wake up and smell coffee, man!
It has turned to economic war.

The intelligence Israel used in hacking their phones and CCTV cameras os not their again. All spies have run away. Iran soldiers have thrown away all western phones they are using because lots of malware on it.
