US-Israelische Militär-Intervention im Iran

[Doppeladler]

In der Nacht auf den 28.02.2026 starteten die USA und Israel massive Luftschläge gegen den Iran. Die Angriffe sind diesmal nicht nur auf das Atom-Programm gerichtet. Für die Zeit nach den Angriffen ruft Trump das iranische Volk zur Machtübernahme auf.

Israels Aktion heißt "Lions's Roar", die der USA "Epic Fury".

Nach den Erfahrungen der Luftschläge gegen das Atomprogramm hat man diesmal offensichtlich beschlossen, am hellichten Tag anzugreifen. Man rechnet offenbar nicht mit einer ernsten Bedrohung für die eingesetzten Flugzeuge.

Die Angriffe gehen weiter und Iran startet Gegenschläge mit Raketen: Neben Israel sind US Einrichtungen am Golf und im Irak die Ziele.

Katar hat mittlerweile eine neue Radarstation mit einem AN/FPS-132 errichtet (Reichweite: angeblich bis zu 5000 km):

Eine visuelle Bestätigung dafür fehlt derzeit.

Der ganze Hafenbereich ist definitiv Teil der Naval Support Activity Bahrain (siehe auch hier das Foto der Einfahrt auf S. 2 mit der Brücke, dem überdachten Tanklager, dem im Bau befindlichen Gebäude und diesem Turm im Hintergrund).

Wenn man nach diesen von CNN veröffentlichten Aufnahmen geht, scheint eher das Gelände eines an die Basis angrenzenden Futtermittellagers getroffen worden zu sein:

Joint E3 Leaders’ Statement on Iran: 28 February 2026

Aus Großbritannien kommen ähnliche Töne wie vor dem Krieg gegen den Irak:



PM statement on Iran: 28 February 2026

As part of our commitments to the security of our allies in the Middle East we have a range of defensive capabilities in the region – which we’ve recently taken steps to strengthen.

Our forces are active and British planes are in the sky today as part of coordinated regional defensive operations to protect our people, our interests, and our allies - as Britain has done before, in line with international law.

We’ve stepped up protections for British bases and personnel to their highest level.

Iran can end this now.

They should refrain from further strikes, give up their weapons programmes, and cease the appalling violence and repression against the Iranian people – who deserve the right to determine their own future, in line with our longstanding position.

That is the route to de-escalation and back to the negotiating table.

Und Deutschland wieder einmal Feuer und Flamme, wenn Völkerrecht gebrochen wird:




















"To defend the American people"?!? "Imminent threats"?!?

The C.I.A. Helped Pinpoint a Gathering of Iranian Leaders. Then Israel Struck.

The killing of Iran’s supreme leader and other top Iranian officials came after close intelligence sharing between the United States and Israel, according to people familiar with the operation.

Shortly before the United States and Israel were poised to launch an attack on Iran, the C.I.A. zeroed in on the location of perhaps the most important target: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the country’s supreme leader.

The C.I.A. had been tracking Ayatollah Khamenei for months, gaining more confidence about his locations and his patterns, according to people familiar with the operation. Then the agency learned that a meeting of top Iranian officials would take place on Saturday morning at a leadership compound in the heart of Tehran. Most critically, the C.I.A. learned that the supreme leader would be at the site.

The United States and Israel decided to adjust the timing of their attack, in part to take advantage of the new intelligence, according to officials with knowledge of the decisions.

The information provided a window of opportunity for the two countries to achieve a critical and early victory: the elimination of top Iranian officials and the killing of Ayatollah Khamenei.

The remarkably swift removal of Iran’s supreme leader reflected the close coordination and intelligence sharing between the United States and Israel in the run-up to the attack, and the deep intelligence the countries had developed on Iranian leadership, especially in the wake of last year’s 12-day war. The operation also showed the failure of Iran’s leaders to take adequate precautions to avoid exposing themselves at a time where both Israel and the U.S. sent clear signals that they were preparing for war.

The C.I.A. passed its intelligence, which offered “high fidelity” on Ayatollah Khamenei’s position, to Israel, according to people briefed on the intelligence.
