    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, in an interview with Channel 13 of Israel regarding the war with the Islamic Republic and the deadline he has set concerning the Islamic Republic's nuclear facilities, stated that the consequences of this action will soon become clear.

    Referring to his 48-hour deadline for the Islamic Republic to open the Strait of Hormuz, he added: "You will soon find out what will happen with that deadline regarding the nuclear facilities - the result will be very good."

    Trump continued: "Iran will be completely destroyed, and this [action] will yield good results."

    He also strongly criticized NATO and its behavior towards the Tehran regime over the past decades, saying: "NATO countries do nothing, and this is shameful."

    Trump stated that the Islamic Republic is now facing a punishment it has deserved for 47 years.

    At 23:03 on April 2, 1405, a hypersonic missile was launched from Bidganeh, Malard.
    It seems that the missile failed.

    Hello, a missile was launched from Bidganeh, Malard, and exploded in the middle of the way, caught fire, and fell down. It wasn't the sound of a fighter jet or a bomb; it was the sound of the missile's engine and its explosion in the air.

    The sound that came at 23:05 was not from a fighter jet. They shot a missile that failed and fell.

    From Bidganeh, Ferdowsi, they launched a missile that went into the air and then fell; I don't know if it was shot down or if it fell by itself.

    Ferdowsi sounded like the sound of a missile launch. As usual from Bidganeh, but at the times that friends mentioned, we also heard the sound of two explosions.

    The missile that launched from Malard Bidganeh fell in the middle of the way and came down, and there was also a faint sound of an explosion.

    Just a few minutes ago, a missile was launched from Bidganeh and then fell down around 11:10 PM on the second of Farvardin.

    The missile that launched at 23:05 from Bidganeh either didn't go up and came back down or a piece of it separated because something bright returned downwards.

    Is there anyone from Ferdowsi, Karaj? What is that sound?
    Ghaem Power Plant, Ferdowsi, Karaj.

    Ferdowsi has some terrifying sounds coming. It's really strange. If it's the sound of a missile, it hasn't been like this before.
    I think they shot two or three in a row. Around 11:25.

    For tonight in Karaj, at 11, first a missile was launched from Bidganeh, which was unsuccessful and fell.
    5 to 10 minutes later, a terrifying sound like a fighter jet came from Ghaem Power Plant, and everyone thought it was a fighter jet.
    It was the sound of its exhaust; since we are close to it, we are sure of it.
    After that, a strong smell of sulfur and smoke came, and there was no explosion.

    The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran announced in a statement on Sunday evening, April 2, that "the Strait of Hormuz is not closed and maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz has not been halted," but that traffic is subject to "considerations arising from the state of war."

    The statement noted that any vessel belonging to or associated with the United States and the Zionist regime and their supporters does not have the right to "normal passage," and preventing their movement is certain.

    Non-hostile ships belonging to other countries can benefit from safe passage, provided they "do not participate or cooperate in aggressive operations against Iran" and comply with safety regulations in "coordination with the competent authorities of Iran."

    The Iranian Foreign Ministry stated that the responsibility for any insecurity lies with Washington and Tel Aviv, and the return of sustainable stability to the region depends solely on "ending military aggression and terminating threats" and "full respect for Iran's legitimate interests."

    21:27 It’s unclear what they are hitting in Bandar Abbas. First, there was the sound of a fighter jet, then a wave and shaking! No explosion sound! I think they hit somewhere in Bandar Abbas with a bunker buster.

    Minab is also being hit badly tonight.

    At 9:32, they hit Bandar Abbas near the air force base; I don’t know what it was, but the ground shook and there was a strange wave, and apparently some windows in the Towhid neighborhood broke.
    I just asked the kids who saw it; they say the fighter jets dropped bombs and hit it several times.
    The explosion wave was felt as far as Golshahr.

    In Bandar Abbas at 9:35, there was an explosion that shook the house like an earthquake.
    They say they hit the airport.
    People at the pier said the fighter jets flew over them.

    Hello. In Bandar Abbas at 9:27 PM, there were three explosions in a row, and the ground shook violently. They say they hit the airbase in Bandar Abbas, but I’m not sure.

    At 21:30, the sounds of explosions were continuous and terrifying; I think they used bunker busters on Bandar Abbas.

    The windows and doors shook all the way to Minab beach.

    In Bandar Khomair, Hormozgan, there was an explosion that shook the ground.
    The power went out; we thought they hit the power plant, but it was restored.

    The message stated that the Islamic Republic will target any source that it claims is "the origin of threats against territorial integrity" and has warned against the repetition of any such actions.

    Mohammad Reza Aref, the First Vice President, also reacted by saying that an attack on Iran's infrastructure would lead to a "widespread blackout in the region" and emphasized: "We will determine when and how the end point of the war will be."

    The President of the United States threatened early Sunday morning that if the Iranian government does not "fully and without threat" reopen the Strait of Hormuz within "48 hours," the U.S. will "destroy" Iran's power plants, starting "with the largest power plant."

    The Financial Times has reported that since the start of the war between the U.S. and Israel against the Islamic Republic on February 28, the market value of 20 major airlines worldwide has decreased by about $53 billion. The newspaper states that the aviation industry is now facing its most severe crisis since the COVID-19 pandemic; a crisis exacerbated by disruptions at Gulf hub airports and grounded flights.

    According to the report, airline executives have also warned of a potential fuel shortage, as the war enters its fourth week. The Financial Times noted that the price of jet fuel, which accounts for about one-third of airline costs, has doubled since the war began, and this could lead to an increase in airfare prices.

    Other reports also indicate that the sharp rise in fuel costs and flight restrictions in the region have put significant pressure on airlines, forcing some to reduce capacity, cancel flights, and reassess their operational plans.

    ⚡️Government sources of the Islamic Republic reported the appointment of an acting head of the Ministry of Intelligence following the removal of Esmail Khatib.

    Seyyed Mahdi Tabatabai, the Deputy for Communications and Information at Masoud Pezeshkian's office, claimed in a message on the social media platform X that immediately after the death of Esmail Khatib, the "order for the acting head of the Ministry of Intelligence" was issued by the President and communicated to the relevant authorities.

    He stated that "information regarding this matter will be provided in due time" but refrained from mentioning the name of the acting head of the Ministry of Intelligence.

    The lack of publication of the new acting head's name is likely due to fears of him being targeted by the Israeli and American military.

    The removal of the minister and senior officials of the Ministry of Intelligence is not limited to Esmail Khatib; in recent days, senior officials of this repressive institution, including Jalal Pourhossein, head of the espionage section, Yahya Hosseini Panjaki known as Hamidi, Deputy for Internal Security of the Minister of Intelligence, Mohsen Mahdavi Kalateh, another Deputy Minister of Intelligence, and Mohammad Basiri, have been killed following attacks by the Israeli military.

    According to Reuters, based on industrial and energy data, the "Damavand Power Plant" (Shahadaei Pakdasht) near Tehran, with a capacity of 2868 megawatts, is the largest power plant in Iran.

    According to a report by "Mehr" in November 2025, this power plant, which was launched in 2005, supplies 43 to 50 percent of Tehran's electricity needs. Therefore, if targeted, the likelihood of widespread blackouts, especially in the capital and surrounding areas, is very high.

    Reuters wrote that after the "Damavand Power Plant," the Kerman Power Plant in the southeast with a capacity of 1910 megawatts and the Ramin Thermal Power Plant in Khuzestan province with a capacity of 1890 megawatts rank next among the largest power plants in Iran.
