-International Events-
Persian Gulf: Last night CENTCOM reported the loss of one KC-135 Stratotanker, which crashed in western Iraq. Rescue operations
were conducted immediately, however all six crew members have been confirmed deceased. The incident occurred as a result of a
mid-air collision, which involved another KC-135 aircraft that was also damaged.
Strait of Hormuz: This morning another commercial vessel was struck while attempting to transit the Strait, which resulted in c
atastrophic damage to the vessel. The crew abandoned ship, and several crew members remain missing.
Turkey: Another ballistic missile was intercepted overnight, as Iranian forces continue to target Incirlik Airbase. This is the
third such interception since the war began.
UAE: Overnight drone attacks continued to strike Dubai, with the International Financial Center being struck by a Shahed drone
yesterday evening.
Analyst Comment: Today was also the third day in a row that the UAE has changed their reporting criteria. Social media reports
no longer list the total number of drones that impact within their country, with the daily rollup reports instead stating the n
umber of drones and missiles that were "dealt with". Due to the video confirmation of drones impacting within Dubai overnight,
these reports are now openly misleading, as the number of successful Iranian strikes remains unreported.
-HomeFront-
Michigan: Yesterday afternoon a vehicle ramming and small arms attack was reported at Temple Israel, one of the largest synagog
ues in Michigan. The attack began as a vehicle ramming attack targeting the main entrance to the facility. After the suspect br
eached the entrance, he exited the vehicle and was engaged by security personnel on site, who neutralized the attacker. Initial
reports claim that the suspect also had explosives inside his vehicle, however authorities have not confirmed this yet as the
vehicle caught fire during the incident and burned down a substantial portion of the structure, including the suspect. No one b
ut the attacker was killed during the attack.
Analyst Comment: The suspect in this case has been identified as Ayman Mohamad Ghazali, a naturalized US Citizen originally fro
m Lebanon. Some sources claim that he conducted the attack due to to his family being killed in an Israeli airstrike on a refug
ee camp in Beirut yesterday, however these claims cannot be independently verified at this time. Either way, the suspect attack
ed the 12,000-member synagogue on a Thursday afternoon when almost no one was at the facility, which is an indicator that the t
errorist did not have much time to plan the attack. More information is expected later on, as forensic analysis of the remains
and vehicle debris is conducted.
Virginia: Yesterday a mass shooting was reported at Old Dominion University after a terrorist entered a classroom and began tar
geting students. Local authorities state that a lone gunman entered an ROTC classroom at ODU shortly before 11:00am yesterday m
orning, first shooting the instructor, who has been identified as LTC Brandon Shah. Immediately after the first shots were fire
d, the cadets in the classroom mounted a counterattack, using violence of action to subdue the attacker. At some point during t
he attack one cadet produced a pocket knife which was subsequently utilized in stabbing the attacker to death. The assailant wa
s found dead by police at the scene after being stabbed 22x times.
Analyst Comment: The suspect in this case has been identified as Mohamad Bailor Jalloh, a naturalized US citizen from Sierra Le
one and former National Guard soldier who had previously been convicted of attempting to carry out a terrorist attack. In 2016,
Jalloh was arrested after attempting to procure firearms with the intent to carry out a Fort Hood-style mass shooting, which r
esulted in him being imprisoned in 2017 before he was released in 2024.

Analyst Comments: In the Middle East, local pro-Iranian militia groups such as the infamous Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) h
ave claimed credit for downing the KC-135 over western Iraq last night. However, it's extremely unlikely that the aircraft was
shot down based on the damage that was sustained by the other KC-135 involved in the incident. The damaged tail section of the
surviving aircraft contained no fragmentation or blast damage indicative of a missile strike, which would be expected in the ev
ent of combat damage.
