“… The United Arab Emirates (UAE) said a number of people had been injured in an Iranian strike on a key aluminium plant in Abu Dhabi, with significant damage reported by operator Emirates Global Aluminium.

Meanwhile, state-controlled Aluminium Bahrain said two employees were wounded by an Iranian attack on one of the world's largest aluminium smelting facilities.

It comes after Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis entered the conflict on Saturday, raising fears of further economic disruption should they target shipping in the Red Sea.

The group said it had launched a barrage of missiles against Israel targeting "sensitive" military sites, and vowed to continue such attacks. Israel said it had shot down two missiles coming from Yemen.…”
 
Amazing the lack of coverage available for a war in which we’ve dropped a thousand bombs. Feels so disconnected compared to the hour by hour updates in Iraq.

It takes a surprising amount of effort to find reasonably reliable info. The entire region suppresses media coverage and now America does too.

Why? What is the purpose? If they are just trying to take out their nuclear capabilities, why can't that be done with bombs?

Iran has a lot of deep underground tunnels for missile launchers and nuclear research. Absent troops on the ground, you cannot eliminate these facilities (despite Trump’s alleged obliteration).

If I had to guess, I suspect the troops would be used for the Hormuz area, not the nuclear areas.
