IRAN BATTLE PLAN DYNAMICS: In a significant military leadership change, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has removed Lieutenant General Brett Sylvia from his role as head of Strategy, Plans, and Policy on the Joint Staff known as the J5. The Pentagon cited allegations of severe misconduct involving leaked classified information regarding operations in Iran and Ukraine, noting the investigation has been referred to the Department of Justice. The leadership shift occurs as civilian and military leaders assess strategic options and force posture in the Middle East. @JenGriffinFNC details the latest in the shifts.

Trump is reportedly planning to restart war with Iran after the election. Some of us have been briefed on the war plan. And while I cannot disclose any details, I can say this: the plan is insane. It will not achieve objectives and will set off a new cycle of escalation.

Iran has harnessed a military-financial complex of 5,000 agencies to bring in components, explosives and heavy-duty trucks critical to its drone and missile programs. Even during the war, deliveries reached Iran by land, sea and air reut.rs/4z7aCRr

Putin says Russia is in “close contact” with “brilliant” @elonmusk about not “interfering with the each other” in orbit and keeping “discipline and order.” This after Musk said Russia could attack his satellites amid controversy over his decision to limit the service to Ukraine

After their visit to Tehran this week, Saudi officials told the White House that the Iranians are concerned about a possible U.S.-Israeli bombing operation after the midterms, per U.S. official. The Saudis asked Trump not to rush into war and to allow more time for negotiations

“As long as the elections keep coming, Netanyahu remains a caretaker prime minister. Under Israel’s constitutional order, caretakers are fully empowered to launch military operations. Menachem Begin did it in 1981 against Iraq’s Osirak reactor—at the height of an election campaign.” @havivrettiggur thefp.com/p/where-does-benja…

Gen. Ronald Clark, head of U.S. Army Pacific, told a defense conference that his command has prepared the Pacific theater under the assumption China will have the capacity — and possibly the intent — to seize Taiwan by force next year. (from @WyattwOlson) stripes.com/branches/army/20…

New: The U.S. is moving an additional Patriot to the Middle East from Ft. Bliss in Texas in preparation for potential new strikes against Iran. When the U.S. has moved air defenses during the Trump admin, it has done so with plans to use them. wsj.com/world/middle-east/u-…

🚨 FT: Residents of occupied Oleshky seeking evacuation would be taken to Crimea or Russia instead of Ukrainian-controlled territory just across the Dnipro River. This is a terrifying warning sign. Russia is preparing to turn an evacuation into a deportation operation. It will exploit people’s desperation for a propaganda stunt, put them through filtration camps, and forcibly keep them under Russian occupation, where they would remain in grave danger.

🛰 Great news! Ukraine has launched its first satellite for its own communications network Himera, together with Denmark's GomSpace, has launched the Obria Nano satellite into orbit. With its help, Ukraine will be able to develop its own communications infrastructure, relying less on foreign satellite systems. The first test satellite of Ukraine's future sovereign satellite communications network is already undergoing testing.
