A friendly advice for our followers in the Middle East or those with acquaintances (family, friends, business partners) in countries under the tutelage of US Army CENTCOM:
— Maintain maximum caution in the coming days given the volatility of the situation currently seen in the region and, so to speak, try as much as possible to stay away from areas with CENTCOM/NATO military bases in the region
We say this especially after tonight's events, which are probably just a foreshadowing of something much bigger that could (that is, a possible possibility not a something 100% sure to happen) happen in the coming days.
The possibility of an escalation beyond the limits previously seen in any modern era is real and, so to speak, should not be underplayed as "happener hype" or similar copes of the type.
We say this not to cause panic or fear, but because we care about the integrity of those who follow us in the region.
Forewarned is forearmed
Better safe than sorry

▶️The price of Brent crude has risen to $97.07 per barrel, while American WTI crude has risen to $92.28. In the past week, Brent has risen by 7.8%, while WTI has risen by nearly 10%.
▶️On Saturday, U.S. forces attacked three Iranian oil tankers, one of which was stationed near the island of Kharg, a key center for Iranian oil exports. In response, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced attacks on three oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and three more U.S. ships.
▶️In this context, traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has sharply declined. Over the past 10 days, an average of only 10 cargo ships have transited the strait per day – the lowest level since May.
The WHO now states on its website:
Vaccination against COVID-19 can trigger multiple sclerosis through cross-reactive CD4+-T cells that recognize the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and myelin peptides.
In other words: Your own immune system destroys the nerve pathways and then attacks your brain and spinal cord.
