Reposting this here because I have no doubt that this event will have an enormous impact on regional geopolitics going forward. Israel's intelligence and strike capabilities are growing. They are targeting Iran's allies.

Engagement
8 posts held, back to 20 August 2025 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 8 posts for this entry, the most recent from 31 August 2025. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Lifetime counters from Telegram’s own channel header, read 8 August 2026 — not the date at the top of this page, which is when the subscriber count was last read. A count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints these counters in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈142,000 means somewhere between 141,500 and 142,499.

Measured directly from 2 videos with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.
Reaction mix
22 reactions across 7 posts, in 7 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 31.8% of them.

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 7 of the 8 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 22reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 8 most recent posts we hold, published 20 August 2025 to 31 August 2025, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

It is my opinion that the sooner this 'second round' will occur, the greater Iran's disadvantage will be. More than two months after the conclusion of the first Israel-Iran war, Iran still has not been able to effectively curb the massive network of mossad agents operating within its borders. I.e. incidents of sabotage and explosive infrastructure are still occurring from time to time. Until this problem is curbed …

Also of note in global geopolitics is the fact that senior Israeli officials, such as the (former) Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant, are openly talking about a second round against Iran. Israel must kill Khamenei in next round of Iran war, ex-defense chief says

UPDATE: lostarmour.info claims 560 Geran-2/Gerbera UAVs, 12 ballistic missiles were used. No word on the number of cruise missiles. This makes the strike one of the largest to date, although not definitively the largest. While the AFU, as is typical for them, claims to have shot down ~95% of everything, the attached footage is just a fraction of what was filmed in just the city of Odessa.

Looks like tonight's drone/missile attack on Ukraine was again one of the largest. Ukraine is claiming 510 UAVs, 6 ballistic missiles, and 32 cruise missiles shot down (meaning that the actual number of munitions used is considerably higher).

The Russian Air Force just received another batch of Su-35S multirole fighter jets.

Russian hackers claim to have broken into an AFU internal database, and retrieved terabytes of sensitive information. Among these are statistics pertaining to AFU losses. According to this source, the total losses in KIA and MIA amount to 1 721 000 personnel. Breakdown by year: ▪️118 500 — in 2022 ▪️405 400 — in 2023 ▪️595 000 — in 2024 ▪️621 000 — in 2025 (so far) The information originates from @RVVoenkor, and h…

Showing the 8 most recent of 8 posts we hold for @TheVoiceOfTheEast. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Forward network
Republishes
Channels on the register whose posts this channel has forwarded.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
Mentions
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
