U.S. Central Command says U.S. forces struck three Iranian crude oil tankers on Sept. 5 after the IRGC launched ballistic missiles toward two U.S. Navy warships operating in the region.
CENTCOM said an aircraft carrier and guided-missile destroyer evaded multiple Iranian attacks without American casualties. The strikes disabled the M/T Downy off Kharg Island and M/T Stark 1 near Jask, while the unladen M/T Kylo, also known as the Noxen, was struck at multiple critical points and rendered inoperable after its crew was ordered to abandon ship.
CENTCOM described all three tankers as part of a multibillion-dollar shadow network funding the IRGC and its regional proxies. Adm. Brad Cooper said the strikes were intended to impose an economic cost on Iran for attacking U.S. warships and warned that the U.S. could target Iran's oil fleet if necessary.

The South Korean government announced yesterday that options, including military efforts, are under review to support freedom of navigation efforts in the Strait of Hormuz. While parliamentary approval is still needed, per local news outlets, committed assets could include mine detection and clearing systems, patrol aircraft, and support vessels.
This comes amidst prior cancellations of joint South Korea-U.S. military exercises, the Trump administration’s public and private efforts for South Korea to get involved with the situation in the Middle East (Hormuz), and U.S. President Donald J. Trump’s public overtures to North Korea.

Per reporting on the release, the remaining mariners were “forced to disembark their crews and ⁠were placed in ⁠the hands of US operatives.”

The Financial Times reports that Russia has been secretly helping Iran develop supersonic cruise missile technology since 2023, in what could become one of Moscow’s most significant military technology transfers to Tehran.
The program, known as C430L, involves Russia’s state arms exporter Rosoboronexport and NPO Mashinostroyenia, with Russian missile engineers traveling repeatedly to Iran and analyzing Iranian ramjet flight-test data. The technology could eventually enable Iran to field faster, low altitude anti ship and land attack cruise missiles that would be significantly harder for U.S. and allied defenses to intercept.
Iran has already built and flight tested the ramjet propulsion system, but the FT found no evidence that a Russian assisted supersonic cruise missile has been deployed. The leaked correspondence indicates the program remained active into June 2026, including discussions about a next phase, although it is unclear whether that phase has begun.
The development is particularly significant for U.S. naval forces in the Middle East: Iran has demonstrated an ability to threaten American bases with drones and ballistic missiles, but has so far been less successful against U.S. naval assets. A mature ramjet powered anti ship missile could give Tehran a substantially more capable weapon for targeting ships in the Gulf and surrounding waters.

According to German authorities, today, the same day that Germany is expected to publicly connect Russia to a last explosive drone incident in Leipzig, the Jänschwalde power station in Eastern Germany came under attack from ‘rockets’ causing a brief interruption of power supply to surrounding areas, which has since been restored. According to German authorities, additional explosive devises were found nearby, with speculation being that the devices paired with the rockets may have been meant to cause widespread power outages. While the facility has been targeted by activists in the past, the incident falling on the same day that prior attacks are meant to be publicly connected to Russia is notable.

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping met today on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan today, amidst reports that Russia may be seeking to escalate in Ukraine. The SCO, championed by China, is primarily a multilateral economic cooperation organization, but similar to BRICS, both China and Russia have used SCO summits to promote an alternative global governance model to that of the United States’.
We’ll have some follow-on updates on the SCO as the day goes.

“We have very little help from other countries, and we help other countries; we spend billions and billions of dollars helping NATO and other countries, South Korea as an example. We help them, but when it came to helping us, I didn't push hard; I just asked, "Would you like to participate?" And they all said, no, thank you. And I said, I'm going to remember that to myself”

The Department of War has confirmed that at least seven U.S. military commissaries experienced refrigeration issues this week, affecting facilities at Fort Irwin, Holloman AFB, Naval Station Newport, Little Rock AFB, F.E. Warren AFB, Robins AFB, and Fort Huachuca. Photos from Fort Irwin were shared on social media.
The disruptions have forced some commissaries to restrict sales to dry goods, while refrigerated and frozen products have been removed or discarded. Fort Huachuca reported that its entire frozen-food inventory was spoiled after freezers entered defrost mode.
The Department of War said the Defense Commissary Agency is relocating products to alternative temperature-controlled facilities and taking precautions to prevent additional losses and maintain food safety.
The cause of the refrigeration failures remains unknown. While some online speculation has pointed to a coordinated cyberattack or deliberate disruption of network-connected refrigeration systems, no official evidence currently supports that theory. The department has declined to speculate on the cause or confirm whether the incidents are being investigated as a coordinated event.

According to the Telegraph, citing a U.S. official, the U.S. is mulling bringing its support for the UK’s sovereignty over the Falkland Islands under review if they do not meet spending requirements, specifically NATO’s 5% defense spending targets. The update comes amidst deputies between Argentinian President Javier Milei and the Trump administration and the renewed U.S. push to have NATO members states shoulder a significantly larger portion of the financial, industrial, and force posture burden within the defense treaty framework. However, as noted in the Telegraph article, the UK’s new defense spending plan falls short of their own targets, let alone those set out by NATO.

Federal authorities are preparing potential charges against a U.S. servicemember accused of making more than $1 million in profits from Polymarket bets tied to military operations, according to people familiar with the investigation.
The servicemember, who has been under scrutiny since the spring, allegedly made successful bets involving the timing or outcomes of U.S. military strikes in Iran and Venezuela. The case is part of a broader federal investigation into whether military personnel used confidential information to trade prediction-market contracts.
A separate investigation involves a KPMG employee accused of betting on whether a public company would beat quarterly earnings expectations, potentially using nonpublic information obtained through their employment.
Charges in both cases could come this fall, although prosecutors have not made final decisions. The investigations involve the Justice Department, federal prosecutors in Manhattan and Washington, and the CFTC.
The cases are part of a broader effort to determine how existing insider-trading and financial-fraud laws apply to prediction markets such as Polymarket. Previous prosecutions involving alleged insider trading on the platform are already facing challenges over whether those laws apply to prediction-market contracts.
Notably, the servicemember has not been charged at this point. The allegations remain under investigation.

U.S. Air Force F-16s on combat air patrol for the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) intercepted all five aircraft and safely escorted them out of the restricted airspace.
The TFR was established for the president's visit and covered a 30 nautical mile area around Houston, with tighter restrictions within 10 nautical miles. The inner restriction prohibited general aviation operations at Hobby, Ellington and La Porte during a 10 a.m.–2 p.m. window today for general aviation.
NORAD says the number of recent TFR violations in Texas is concerning and reminded pilots that checking active NOTAMs before flight is essential.

The U.S. military is facing a major shortage of advanced air defense interceptors in Europe, particularly Patriot missiles, after large quantities of U.S. stocks were shifted to the Middle East during the war with Iran.
A U.S. defense official in Europe told AP that American forces there do not have enough Patriots to defend against a sustained Russian ballistic missile attack and would have only limited capability against even a single such strike. A NATO official confirmed that Patriot inventories among U.S. and allied forces in Europe are low, although NATO disputes the characterization that the situation is “beyond critical.”
The shortage has several causes. The U.S. transferred roughly 600 Patriot interceptors to Ukraine during the Biden administration, but the Iran war has accelerated consumption. CSIS estimates that about 1,500 of the U.S. inventory of roughly 2,330 Patriots have been expended during the Iran conflict.
Europe has few immediate substitutes for Patriot against advanced ballistic missiles. France and Italy's SAMP/T provides another capability, but its current version has a shorter range and the newer SAMP/T NG has not yet been combat tested.
Production is expected to improve, but not immediately. NATO expects Europe's first Patriot production facility, in Germany, to begin deliveries potentially in early 2027. U.S. production is also being expanded, with a goal of reaching 2,000 Patriot missiles annually by 2030.
There is no indication that Russia is preparing an imminent attack on NATO, and Russia itself faces significant constraints from its ongoing war in Ukraine. However, the depleted inventories create a temporary vulnerability while the U.S. and European allies work to rebuild missile stocks.
