    The Israeli army's statement noted that the IRGC's oil headquarters circumvents sanctions and provides "the necessary financial resources to strengthen military capabilities and develop missile and drone programs" from oil sales. This statement highlighted Ashrafi's key role in managing these financial resources and supporting the military activities of the IRGC and its allied groups in the region, stating that the Israeli army's operations against IRGC commanders and leaders of the Islamic Republic will continue.

    Mostafa Tajzadeh added: "The Iranian side should pave the way for a honorable agreement by accepting the democratic demands of the majority of the nation and addressing international concerns about its nuclear activities."
    Mostafa Tajzadeh, the political prisoner, wrote to Donald Trump: "The effort to destroy and turn Iran into hell makes the recent war a completely catastrophic one, igniting the region and once again fueling anti-American sentiments in Iran and many countries around the world."

    On Sunday, Iranian state media and news agencies published images of the wreckage of American helicopters and destroyed aircraft following the "successful operation to rescue the second American pilot from Iranian territory."

    Previously, The New York Times reported that the U.S. military bombed at least one C-130 aircraft after it landed in Iran and evacuated its crew from the site. Iranian media claim that two Black Hawk helicopters were also destroyed during this operation. The Islamic Republic's police had previously announced that the U.S. C-130 was shot down by the police's special forces unit.

    On Sunday, April 15, The New York Times reported on the rescue operation of the American F-15 fighter jet pilot in Iran, citing a senior U.S. military official about the destruction of two U.S. transport aircraft to prevent Iranian forces from accessing them.

    The report stated that after the rescue of the U.S. Air Force officer, two transport planes meant to transfer the commandos and pilot to a safe location were grounded at a remote base in Iran. "Commanders decided to send three new aircraft to the area to evacuate all U.S. military personnel and the pilot. They also blew up two disabled aircraft to prevent them from falling into Iranian hands."

    According to this report, the senior U.S. official described the mission to rescue the pilot as one of the "most difficult and complex" operations in the history of U.S. special forces, considering the mountainous terrain, the injuries sustained by the F-15 pilot, and the urgency of Iranian forces reaching the site.

    Axios reported on Sunday, April 16, citing a senior CIA official, that during the rescue operation of the second downed F-15 pilot in Iran, an initial deception campaign was launched to mislead Iranian forces and officials.

    Barak David, the author of the report, wrote that the CIA spread the rumor that American forces had found the pilot and were conducting a ground transfer of this military personnel from Iran. This U.S. intelligence official stated that the CIA utilized its unique capabilities to search for and locate this officer. He emphasized: "This was a clear case of finding a needle in a haystack; but in this case, it was about a brave American soul in a mountain crevice that was invisible without the CIA's capabilities."

    According to this official, "the CIA immediately informed the Pentagon, the military, and the White House of the pilot's exact location. The President ordered an immediate rescue operation, and the Pentagon executed it while the CIA continued to provide real-time information to support this mission."

    The account attributed to Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, the Speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly, on Sunday, April 16, after the news of the rescue of the second F-15 pilot, described this operation as another failure for the U.S.

    Qalibaf shared images of the wreckage of the destroyed C-130 aircraft near Isfahan, writing: "If the U.S. achieves three more victories like this, it will be completely destroyed."

    The head of Yasouj University of Medical Sciences stated on Sunday, April 16, that in the attack on Saturday night by the "enemy," which occurred in the Koohe Siyah area near the city of Dehdasht in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province, five local residents were killed and eight were injured.

    According to the news agency Mizan, in the continuation of the "enemy's attacks last night" in the Vazg and Kakan areas of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province, four more people have been killed. It is unclear whether these individuals were military personnel or those referred to by the government as "popular mobilization forces."

    Human rights sources have reported the death of Hossein Ghavi (Silavi), a 28-year-old Arab citizen with a disability in Ahvaz, while in the custody of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

    According to reports published on Sunday, April 5, 2026, by HRANA, the Iran Human Rights Center, Hengaw, and Daadban, this citizen, who resided in the Zargan area of Ahvaz, died under "ambiguous" circumstances after being detained in the last days of Esfand.

    Based on these reports, Hossein Ghavi, who had a disability in his leg and earned a living through a tea stall, was arrested on charges of filming bombed areas and sending the footage to foreign media. Local sources told HRANA that IRGC-affiliated forces contacted his family on Thursday to inform them of his death.

    Some of these reports have stated that this citizen died as a result of torture while in custody.

    New post from President Donald J. Trump
    We saved him!

    My fellow Americans, over the past few hours, the armed forces of the United States conducted one of the boldest search and rescue operations in American history for one of our extraordinary pilot officers; an officer who is also a highly respected colonel, and I am now pleased to inform you that he is safe and sound!

    This brave warrior was trapped behind enemy lines in the treacherous mountains of Iran, with enemy forces closing in on him hour by hour, but he was never truly alone. The Commander in Chief, the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and his fellow warrior comrades were tirelessly monitoring his position and meticulously planning for his rescue.

    At my direct order, the armed forces of the United States dispatched dozens of aircraft equipped with the deadliest weapons in the world to bring him back. He was injured during the operation, but he will be completely fine.

    This miraculous search and rescue operation was in addition to the successful rescue of another brave pilot yesterday, which we did not confirm because we did not want to jeopardize the second rescue operation. This is the first time in American military memory that two U.S. pilots have been rescued separately deep in enemy territory.

    We never leave an American warrior behind!

    The fact that we were able to carry out both operations without a single American killed or injured once again proves that we have decisive air superiority and absolute dominance over the skies of Iran.

    This is a moment that all Americans — Republicans, Democrats, and everyone in between — should take pride in and unite around. We truly have the best, most professional, and deadliest military in the history of the world.

    God bless America, God bless our troops, and Happy Easter!

    Three U.S. officials confirmed to the news outlet "Axios" that U.S. special forces successfully rescued the second crew member of the F-15 fighter jet that was shot down over Iran.

    With the completion of this operation, both flight crew members are now in the custody of U.S. forces.

    According to two informed sources, the pilot and the weapons systems officer of the F-15 immediately established contact through their communication systems after ejecting.

    One U.S. official stated that the operation was carried out by a specialized reconnaissance unit with extensive air support, and all forces have now exited Iranian airspace and territory.
    axios Fox News also reported, citing two senior U.S. officials and regional sources, that the second crew member of the F-15E, which was shot down in southwestern Iran, was found and extracted in a rescue operation "behind enemy lines," and he, along with the rescue team, has now "safely exited Iran."

    The governor of Kohgiluyeh has stated that the Black Mountain area of this county was attacked by missiles from the U.S. and Israel an hour ago, resulting in three deaths and two injuries so far.

    Fattah Mohammadi, the political and security deputy of the Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad governorate, also announced the missile attack on the "telecommunications and broadcasting tower" in the Black Mountain area, reporting the death of four citizens and the injury of one person.

    Reports have also emerged of helicopter and jet sounds in the area.

    The Tasnim news agency, close to the Revolutionary Guards, quoted the governor of Kohgiluyeh as saying: "The exact number of the injured and martyrs has not yet been determined, but it seems that the number of martyrs and injured is higher than this." Iraj Kazemi-Joo stated that currently "we are facing heavy traffic of local forces in the Black Mountain area to provide assistance. The injured are being transferred to medical centers."

    Images have been published showing some citizens lining up to inquire about the condition of the injured and to donate blood in front of the Dehdasht hospital.

    Some speculations suggest that search and rescue operations are underway to find the second pilot of the downed U.S. F-15 in the area, which seems to be one of the reasons for the traffic of citizens' vehicles on the roads leading to the site.

    Landeh is a mountainous county in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province, inhabited by the Lore ethnic group. Landeh is located 30 kilometers northwest of Dehdasht, with the Maroun River flowing from the south and the Jen River from the east, and the Black Mountain is located there.

The gray smoke at the back and right is related to the Imam Port petrochemical plant, and the black smoke in the middle is from Fajr 1.'
    Wikipedia: The operational scope of [Fajr Utilities] includes the production and supply of electricity, steam, industrial water, air separation, and wastewater treatment for the petrochemical complexes in the region.

    Another received message that I cannot evaluate or confirm:
    Let me explain about the three major utilities in Iran's petrochemical industry.
    The largest is Mobin Energy, which, like Fajr, is a subsidiary of the Persian Gulf Holding. It supports all the petrochemicals in Phase 1 of Assaluyeh, which are the most profitable.
    The second is Fajr Energy, which supports the petrochemicals in Mahshahr, and the third is Damavand Energy, which supports the petrochemicals in Phase 2 of Assaluyeh, many of which have not yet become operational. They all provide electricity, oxygen, steam, and industrial wastewater. Currently, the most strategic one is probably Mobin Energy. Today, the CEOs of the companies were supposed to meet regarding the shutdown of the Mobin power plant or the continuation of production. If Mobin shuts down, a significant portion of the country's revenue will be lost. Pars, Arya Sasol, Pardis, Zagros, Jam, and Nouri are among the most important companies whose operations depend on Mobin being active.

    The U.S. State Department announced the arrest and revocation of permanent residency for two family members of Qassem Soleimani, the former commander of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The department stated that Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter were arrested by federal agents following the revocation of their permanent residency status at the direction of Marco Rubio, and they are currently in the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

    Hamideh Soleimani Afshar is a niece or sister-in-law of Qassem Soleimani.

    In a statement, the U.S. State Department noted that according to media reports and comments posted on her own social media, Soleimani Afshar is a "vocal supporter of the Iranian totalitarian and terrorist regime."

    The statement added that Soleimani Afshar has praised attacks against U.S. soldiers and military facilities in the Middle East, admired Mojtaba Khamenei, referred to the U.S. as the "Great Satan," and supported the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which is listed as a "terrorist" organization. Posts published on her now-deleted Instagram account were mentioned, indicating that she lived a lavish life in Los Angeles. In addition to the revocation of Soleimani's permanent residency, her husband has also been banned from entering the U.S.
    @VahidOOnLine

    Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State, announced the details of the revocation of residency and the arrest of Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter in a message on the social media platform X.

    Rubio pointed out that they had previously lived a lavish life in the U.S. with permanent residency (green cards), identifying Afshar as a vocal supporter of the Islamic Republic who has celebrated attacks against Americans and referred to the United States as the "Great Satan."

    The Secretary of State of the Trump administration emphasized that the legal status of these two individuals has been revoked and they are currently in ICE custody awaiting deportation. He stated, "The Trump administration will not allow America to become a home for foreign nationals who support terrorist and anti-American regimes."
    @VahidOOnLine

    🔄: Narjes Soleimani, daughter of Qassem Soleimani, the former commander of the Quds Force, has denied any familial relationship with Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter, who were arrested by the U.S. due to their connection. The Jamaran news agency published a statement from Ms. Soleimani in which she wrote that the attribution of the arrested individual in the U.S. is "incredible... because both of her nieces are male, not female." She further emphasized that "to this day, no one from the family and relatives of martyr Soleimani has resided or resides in the U.S."
    @VahidHeadline

    The U.S. State Department announced that Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State, revoked the legal status of Fatemeh Larijani, daughter of Ali Larijani, the former Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of the Islamic Republic, and her husband Kalanter Motamedi earlier this month.

    According to the department, Larijani and Motamedi are no longer present in the U.S. and have been banned from re-entering in the future.

    Hello. It's 12:10 PM on Farvardin 15.
    In Kelardasht, a large number of fighter jets are passing by, and their sounds have been coming for a few minutes. From our experience of the 12-day war and this war, we have seen that those passing from here usually start hitting Tehran and such places in a few minutes. We are warning our acquaintances that if they are somewhere, they should not go out for now.

    💥 #Ahvaz:
    Hello Ahvaz, at 10:44 AM on Farvardin 15, a loud explosion was heard, the house shook...

    Vahid at 10:46, a loud explosion was heard in Ahvaz, it was felt strongly from the Baharestan neighborhood.

    They hit Ahvaz at 10:45.

    💥 #Mahshahr:
    Finally, they hit the special economic zone of Mahshahr.

    It started at 10:10 AM.
    For twenty minutes, they hit all the companies.

    About 20 sounds of explosion waves.
    Mahshahr port,
    towards Imam Port and the petrochemical area.

    Vahid: I’m alive by chance in the middle of the bombardment; they hit the petrochemical area in Mahshahr.

    Vahid: They hit the Mahshahr refineries, please share the news.
    Karun, Marun, Imam Razi, Amir Kabir, Fajr 1 and 2.

    Fajr 1 and 2 petrochemicals,
    Amir Kabir,
    Rajai,
    Takhte Jamshid,
    Marun,
    Karun,
    they hit these.
    I’m an employee of the petrochemical company myself.
    They told me not to come today.

    They are hitting the Fajr petrochemical and the electrical technology of the special petrochemical zone of Bandar Shahpour (Imam Port).
    The fact that they didn’t announce an evacuation is very bad.
    I’m very worried; my brother and cousin work there, and I have no news.
    We don’t even have something called Mahshahr petrochemical. There’s a petrochemical in Imam Port (formerly Iran-Japan petrochemical) and the special petrochemical zone of Imam Port, where there are about ten to twenty petrochemicals (like Asaluyeh) from which one-third of Iran's petrochemical exports come; it seems many of them have been hit.
    My only question is why no evacuation warning was issued for hitting the petrochemicals like everywhere else!

    They hit Mahshahr.
    They hit the utility.
    That is, the place that supplies electricity, water, and gas to the other petrochemical units.
    In Mahshahr, this utility is called Fajr.
    In Asaluyeh, it’s Mobin.
    For now, they hit Mahshahr.

    Please be careful when reporting petrochemical news.
    The part that was hit was the petrochemical utility. That means the facilities section.
    Both the system goes down, and the entire infrastructure is not destroyed.
    It’s like hitting the boiler room and the fuse box instead of hitting the house.

    Vahid: They hit the special zone of Mahshahr at 10:45; they hit it hard, many companies were hit; it was a major catastrophe here.

    💥 #Abadan #Khorramshahr:

    Khorramshahr, explosions started around; it seems they hit Shalamcheh, at 10:40 until now, the sound of 4 explosions.
