Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

[Saithan]

Sorry, but rogue elements in Iran with enough access could do it. Also I would not rule out that Israel and others has moles in Iran and possible high enough in the hierarchy to pull it off.

I'd keep my guard up and deploy AD systems and other systems to try catch any additional launches.

It's quite pathetic how our government doesn't have AD systems in place and rely on NATO.

In his press conference Trump answers that this will be over "very soon" in response to a question. I can see that the US may soon have more or less destroyed Iran's defensive capability. I don't see Iran's offensive capability through drones being destroyed. When the US declares that the war is over I fear it may be over as far as the US is concerned but not as far as the regime and IRGC are concerned.

That is same as Russia-Ukriane, if Russia say they had destroyed the Ukriane millitary capability, what would you think? Even there has been 4 years from the beginning of the war.
If US decided to end their 'special military operation', I would not feel surperise, that is a clever action, the more clever things is not to make it happen.

Footage shows Iranian air defenses of unknown types striking Israeli Hermes-900 heavy UAVs near Tehran and an American MQ-9 Reaper UAV over Bushehr. Other shots of these drones being shot down in Iran are also shown. To date, 11 American MQ-9 Reaper reconnaissance and attack UAVs have been lost, according to CBS News, citing two US officials. Experts estimate the cost of each MQ-9 Reaper UAV to be approximately $30 million.

Given the general carelessness I observed in Iran during peacetime, anything is possible. Otherwise, how could enemy agents, in groups of two or three, assassinate ten high-ranking generals right in their beds in just 10 minutes, aiming Spike anti-tank missiles directly at their bedroom windows or at ballistic missile launchers?
I know the Iranians a little, so I think anything is possible.

Why is mossad headquarters next to residential area?

One of Mossad's largest headquarters is located inside a shopping mall. A former Mossad agent wrote this in one of his books.

One can be of course against US-Israel attacks against Iran, but the way some people act, going as far as to deny their own ministries, is amazing to me. This is done even on television.

Good job being unpaid propagandists of Iran.

This is the same Iran and IRGC that commited a genocide against Syrian civilians. And all the while hiding behind the guise of Shia Islam. Did Imam Husayn ibn Ali gave these charlatans the right to use his name while massacring Arab civilians? Is it not in fact a sin? How can you look at Hasan ibn Ali, and say that these charlatans represent him? And some brain dead people in Turkey even support them acquiring nuclear capability.

There is a fraction in Iran who hates the Mullahs to the bones. They want to rather see Iran burning than in the hands of Mullahs. These fraction could try to drag Türkiye in to the war. Maybe.

Their transgressions are not in doubt, but I think from a strategic point of view it is valuable to have a stable and sturdy Iran.

If Iran were to fall the next in line would be Turkey, and Pakistan. We need to make sure that sequence is frozen, and keep in mind that the Jews will never rest in the pursuit of Greater Israel.

They have assumed the mantle of being Israel's primary antagonist, and we should value the breathing space that generates.

The main, ultimate target (hedef) is China!
Probably after Russia.

A "stable and sturdy" Iran tried imperialism cosplay and even supplied weapons to Pkk. You do realize they have blood of Turkish soldiers on their hands?

Or perhaps you would have preferred Irgc on your southern border?

Edit: You are Pakistani, nvm. I think Pakistanis are simply unable to see the situation for what it is, apart from the "Ummah brotherhood" perspective, which makes no sense because Iran was never and did never try to be a part of Ummah. Unless you think massacre of Syrian civilians was one such thing.

Now Iran’s imperialism plans crumbled because Israel decided to act. Would you have preferred Irgc on your southern border?

Edit: You are Pakistani, nvm. I think Pakistanis are simply unable to see the situation for what it is, apart from some sort of "Ummah brotherhood", which makes no sense because Iran was never and did never try to be a part of Ummah.

No I follow the topics of the region closely. I am aware of what you speak. Better not to make presumptions.

Iran is obviously deeply sectarian (perhaps even ethno-supremacist in an inconspicuous manner) and it pursues a politics of that nature, which consequently impedes it from being able to have the same friendliness as other surrounding countries, or to take it even closer to the truth, which inspires it to actively pursue hostile policies and actions,. However, what exactly is your perspective of Israel's agenda in the region conversely? And (assuming you are not in denial of the obvious in regards to Israel) who do you think is more capable of actually realizing their agenda?

On the one hand we have a country which does not even possess a basically functional military, and on the other hand we have a country that has a superpower at its beck and call, the international economic system at its beck and call, nuclear weapons, advanced hardware, sophisticated intelligence, and has already successfully topped numerous states in the region. I welcome you to argue your case as to it being an inferior threat according to realistic considerations.

US has two missile systems in the Iran theatre that can achieve this: ATACMS and PrSM.
ATACM has a 300km range with a single rocket launcher and is good for stationary targets. After 2016 there was a program to make ATACMS that can hit moving sea targets. But it was later shelved. So if the Iranian naval assets were stationary, ATACMS could have done the deed.

PrSM increment 1 has a range of 500km with dual rocket launcher. It can now hit moving sea targets as tested in 2024 during SINKEX exercise in the Pacific with the help of drones and high altitude balloons.
Increments 2-4 missiles will have up to 1000km range. This will give better stand off distances to the launchers.

Türkiye was thought to have a program to produce a 500km range Bora missile that can hit sea targets. But it still hasn’t materialised. It is now rumoured that Tayfun may have a version with that capability. (the last test in October 2025 involved hitting a sea target. But it wasn’t specified as a moving one). So the time will show. Current Tayfun missiles have GOLIS guidance (Go onto Location In Space). In other words only good for stationary targets. Tayfun in its last test managed a 750km range with a CEP accuracy of better than 10m.

Türkiye tests Tayfun ballistic missile, potentially extending its range

Roketsan conducted a test firing of the Tayfun ballistic missile on 3 February. The missile was launched from Rize-Artvin Airport on the Black Sea coast, heading west....

According to below article, Tayfun bl-4 may have capability to hit moving sea targets and with hypersonic speeds at terminal phase as mentioned by the MD Mr İkinci.

Several scenarios are possible:

1. False flag. That is, some third party is launching missiles toward Turkey to draw it into a war with Iran. There could be many interested parties—the United States, Israel, and even Russia. But here's the problem: where did this third party get an Iranian missile? After all, it is an Iranian missile.

Therefore, this theory can be ruled out.

2. Unified command has been lost in Iran, and low-level commanders have seized the initiative "on the ground."

3. The missiles were fired by forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), targeting Incirlik.

The latter theory seems more plausible.

Erdogan made a statement to Tehran on this matter yesterday. It can be assumed that he has full information.

(Geç yanıt verdiğim için özür dilerim. Foruma hoş geldiniz)

I am quite certain that some IDF and US special forces are already on the ground and have taken control of the irgc missile launchers.

In a proxy war like this, it is very likely that both sides will do false flags, propaganda, and disinformation.

Some evidence, such as the Shahed copy and DT's statement about Iran bombing a school, has emerged in the form of a video showing the suspected are Tomahawk.

Who cares about that Ummah crap bro? Its all politics I tell you! As long as Iran can be countered by Turkey (which it currently is), Iam in favour of having a radical Iran that can distract Israel's attention from the Turks until Turkey possess nuclear weapons. It isnt for brotherly love that Turkey is protecting Iran rn but because the current Iran is a useful shield to Turkey from Israel at the moment

I also want to mention that it was Israel that funded the PKK way before the Iranians and this was already proven by the PKK's trash leader, Ocalan, himself! It was Israel that supported the PKK into establishing a defacto autonomous zone for the last 15 years within Syria and they were the ones who forced the US to have an autonomous zone for the kurds established within Iraq.

The moment Iran falls, Turkey is next in line that is 100% sure. The fact that anti-Turkish rhetoric has been on the rise for the last 2 years is a clear indication that the Israeli govt is psychologically prepping its citizens to be involved in a long-standing conflict with the Turks in the future.
Naftali Bennet just said in a recent interview with bloomberg that if the Turks were to ever think of forming alliances with countries in the region then it would be a threat to Israel and we wont stay silent. Furthermore, Israeli defence minister recently posted on X that Turkey is now too much of a threat and that Israel misses the "OLD" Turkey and wants it back
