Witnesses Describe Horror Scene After “Double-Tap” Bombing Kills Over 20 at Popular Tehran Square

 

In Iran, the U.S. and Israel are employing tactics used in Israel’s genocide in Gaza, the “War on Terror” and Trump’s recent attacks on alleged drug boats in the Carribean.

As groups of families and others gathered Sunday evening at cafes around Niloofar Square—a middle-class area in eastern Tehran—after breaking their fast for Ramadan, a series of explosions struck the area, leveling several buildings and killing over 20 people, according to witnesses at the scene and later reports from local news sources.

Witnesses who spoke to Drop Site said two explosions hit the area—a smaller strike in the vicinity, followed by a larger one that devastated much of the neighborhood, a tactic known as a “double tap” strike that is used to inflict maximum casualties.

Videos of the immediate aftermath of the attack showed several individuals dead and wounded as well as massive destruction on the street outside. In Cafe Ahla, next to the square, blood and debris soaked the floors. Several patrons who had been sitting there when the attack struck could be seen dead on the floor or with their mutilated bodies still sprawled across their seats.

“We were sitting here around 8:00-8:30 p.m. and suddenly there was the noise and explosion. We got up and a few people ran away. We turned around to get our belongings and we saw that blood was spraying everywhere. Someone’s hand had fallen on the floor, a head had fallen on the floor,” said Shahin, a witness who had been at the cafe and asked to be identified by first name only. “There were scalps torn off, hands severed, a few people were laying here all cut up and two people were martyred.”

As has been the case with nearly all of the bombings in Iran, it remains unclear whether this attack was carried out by the U.S. or Israel. Israel has used “double tap” strikes in Gaza, Lebanon, and elsewhere. In one prominent incident, the Israeli military killed 22 Palestinians, including five journalists, in a double tap strike on Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis in August. The U.S. repeatedly engaged in double tap strikes during the so-called “War on Terror” in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Yemen and, most recently, in a September 2025 attack on an alleged Venezuelan drug smuggling boat in the Caribbean.  (more...)

Liberals supply Iran reasons to target Canadians

 

Canada has defended every country harmed by the conflict except the victim of aggression. It’s part of Ottawa’s longstanding support for war on Iran.

After the prime minister released a written statement and made a public declaration expressing “support” for US/Israeli aggression, foreign affairs minister Anita Anand released two more statements criticizing Iran on Saturday. Late in the evening she posted, “Canada stands with the United Arab Emirates as it defends itself against Iran’s attempts to escalate the conflict.” After it was confirmed Iran’s leader and multiple family members were killed, as well as a 165 at a girls’ school, Anand posted “Canada strongly condemns the targeting of the State of Qatar by Iran. Canada stands with Qatar and all partners in the region in efforts to safeguard security and prevent further escalation.”

On Sunday Anand followed those statements up with a broader condemnation of Iran’s strategy of targeting countries housing US bases used to launch the aggression. She stated, “We condemn the Iranian Regime’s indiscriminate attacks against civilian infrastructure across the region, including in the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and Jordan. These attacks are a dangerous threat to regional stability and civilian safety.”

According to Anand, Iran is responsible for the US/Israeli aggression that has already hit more than 1,000 targets in the country. Ottawa’s support for the war is stronger than many other members of the US-led NATO alliance. Spain and Norway criticized the US/Israeli aggression while UN Secretary-General António Guterres called for an “immediate cessation of hostilities and de-escalation.”  (more...)

Epstein Said Trump Was A CORNERED Rat!

 

Terror and desperation

An enormous crime against Iran

 

Hours before Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s death was confirmed, I told the Drop Site News livestream that the assassination of Iran’s leader would be an enormous crime.

By early Sunday, Iran announced that the United States and Israel had killed Khamenei as well as several members of his family.

They join hundreds of Iranians already slain in the American-Israeli war, including scores of schoolgirls massacred in an unspeakable atrocity at an elementary school in Minab, southern Iran.

Killing Khamenei, the leader of a sovereign state, in an unprovoked war of aggression is a flagrant act of international terrorism.

Right away, President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the perpetrators of this crime, got what they asked for: Iranians poured into the streets.

They were not there to protest their government and overthrow it – as the warmongers had demanded – but to mourn their martyred leader and demand revenge.  (more...)

After a Sports Hall in Iran Was Bombed, Witnesses Describe Chaos and “Continuous Screaming”

 

Several hours after a bomb struck a girls’ elementary school and killed 165, a strike on the town of Lamerd killed teenagers in a gymnasium.

Dozens of teenage girls were attending their regular training sessions of volleyball, basketball, and gymnastics in the main sports hall in Lamerd, a city near the Persian coast, when a missile slammed into the building at 5 p.m. on Saturday. Additional strikes hit two nearby residential areas and a hall adjacent to a school, as the U.S. and Israel pounded targets across Iran on the first day of what President Donald Trump declared as a regime change war. According to local officials cited in Iranian state media, the strikes on Lamerd killed at least 18 civilians and wounded scores more.

“Within seconds of the missile strike, the windows shattered into thousands of fragments. Sports equipment, balls, tables, barriers flew through the air. Black smoke filled the space. The smell of gunpowder made breathing almost impossible. The screaming began immediately, layered with the sound of debris collapsing and concrete falling from the ceiling,” Mohammed Saed Khorshedy, a 29-year-old worker at the gym who witnessed the attack, told Drop Site News.

The facility sits on the outskirts of Lamerd, a quiet city in Fars province, near the surrounding Zagros mountain range, giving the natural landscape an uneven, rugged character. The rectangular building is at a crossroads connecting the city center to Bandar Assaluyeh, an industrial port and energy hub on the Persian Gulf.

The sports hall was poorly maintained, with deteriorating walls surrounded by a low perimeter fence. A high arched metal roof sat atop a reinforced concrete frame and a rubber floor for volleyball and other sports. The missile struck the middle of the roof, destroying a large part of the building. The main court, small spectator stands, changing rooms, and coach’s office were all reduced to rubble.

Hossein Gholami, a 50-year-old elementary school teacher, was returning from work when he heard the blast. His 16-year-old daughter, Zahra, was training in the hall.

“I noticed a strange gathering of people at the corner of the street leading to the sports hall,” Gholami told Drop Site. “The screaming was rising from a distance. A colleague ran toward me, waving his arm, and said in a shaken voice: ‘Zahra, the hall, there has been an explosion.’ I felt as though the ground had split beneath my feet. Everything around me became hazy,” he said. “I ran immediately, and with every step the columns of black smoke rose higher, while the smell of fire and flames entered my nose with force.”  (more...)

Prison Drones, Tumbler Ridge Inquiry?, Druhan's Ambitions, Guest Amy Herdy

 

This week we welcome documentary filmmaker, Amy Herdy, of Cove Tower, based out of Boulder, Colorado. Amy is looking into making a documentary on the NS mass shootings after having read Paul's books on the subject. She discusses the industry, why she thinks no documentaries have been made to date about the shootings, and how she is different from other filmmakers.

Also this week, Paul and Adam discuss the Open AI meeting with federal ministers in the wake of the Tumbler Ridge school shootings. Should there be an inquiry into the school shootings.

Former NS Justice Minister Becky Druhan's seems to harbour ambitions to take on her former leader, Premier Tim Houston. She hinted at those ambitions in an interview she gave with CBC Information Morning, in the midst of Premier Houston's worst week as Premier.

More than a crime, a blunder

 

Sneak attack in the middle of negotiations. Irony overload, as it happened Netanyahu sought protection in Germany. Ayatollah Khamenei didn't run away. Biggest single US atrocity since Vietnam.

When “Behold, I Stand At The Door” Turned Antisemitic | Branham Cult Secrets

 

John and Charles examine a disturbing pattern in William Branham’s preaching, including a repeated analogy that frames “letting in Hitler” alongside “letting in Jesus,” and why that comparison lands as morally shocking. They connect that theme to how “Behold, I stand at the door and knock” was commonly taught, often filtered through Branham quotations rather than a plain reading of Scripture.

John and Charles then walk through “servant theology” and a stratified, pyramid-like afterlife hierarchy described in Message circles, including claims about Jews, non-white people, and “heathens” as a coded category. They also discuss how these ideas were expanded within inner-circle teaching, how they affected families, and why many people inside the movement were never told the full implications.

Promoting genocide is a crime no matter where it happens

 

Many self-described “Jewish” institutions should be considered crime scenes. They are gathering places for those who ought to be prosecuted under the War Crimes Act and are often places where young Canadians are illegally “induced” into joining a foreign military while flouting genocide statutes and charity law.

A La Presse investigation published Thursday into two private Montreal Jewish schools supporting the Israeli military has sparked an important political and media storm in Quebec. Since October 2023 heavily subsidized private schools Herzliah and Bialik have had at least 14 different visits from active or former Israeli soldiers.

But these schools are but two of a hundred or so self-described Jewish institutions promoting the politics of Zionism that have platformed individuals who should be investigated under Canada’s War Crimes Act and Crimes Against Humanity. That statute begins, “Every person who, either before or after the coming into force of this section, commits outside Canada (a) genocide, (b) a crime against humanity, or (c) a war crime, is guilty of an indictable offence and may be prosecuted for that offence in accordance with section 8.”

Alongside self-described Jewish schools, synagogues, camps and community centres regularly host Israeli soldiers who’ve participated in the holocaust in Gaza. Last month former IOF combat soldier Guy Hochman, a comedian who jokes about committing war crimes in Gaza, performed at the Prosserman Jewish Community Centre in Toronto.  (more...)

Palestine, Epstein and the System of COMPLICITY — UN Insider Speaks Out

 

"Israel is getting rid of the Palestinians in the most sadistic way this century could afford. And, it's shocking that no one stops it."

In this Zeteo town hall, Mehdi Hasan sits down with UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories Francesca Albanese who’s had a disinformation campaign waged against her by pro-Israel groups. The smear campaign against Albanese came in the form of a doctored video spread by pro-Israel groups trying to paint her antisemitic.

They also discuss Donald Trump’s ‘Board of Peace,’ her life as a sanctioned official and the link between Jeffrey Epstein and the collapse of multilateralism.

Carney says yes to US, Israel breaking international law

 

Mark Carney has fully endorsed Donald Trump’s bid to balkanize Iran on behalf of the genocidal Jewish supremacist state and a US empire that insists on ruling the world. Tens of thousands will likely be killed unless Iran can deliver a decisive blow to US and Israeli interests in the region.

In a statement posted to X Saturday morning, Carney and foreign minister Anita Anand said “Canada supports” the US/Israeli violation of the UN Charter. The statement endorsing the unprovoked attack was just the latest example of the Carney government’s subservience to the US empire’s ‘might makes right’ policy around the world.

The written statement was odious but the prime minister’s declaration at an event in India was even worse. Carney declared, “Canada reaffirms Israel’s right to defend itself and to ensure the security of its people.” In an initial Israeli attack upwards of 100 were killed in a strike on an elementary school in Minab, southern Iran. Information on the horrific crime was already circulating widely when Carney made his declaration.  (more...)

“Small Children Who Knew Nothing of Politics or Wars”

 

A scene of devastation in Minab, Iran, as parents waited to know the fate of their young daughters after the bombing of a girls' elementary school killed over 100.

Mohammed Shariatmadar stood outside the wreckage of the Shajareh Tayyiba girls’ elementary school in Minab, in southern Iran on Saturday morning, unable to process what he was seeing. His six year-old daughter, Sara, a second grade student, was among dozens of girls killed when the school was bombed in the first few hours of the war launched by the U.S. and Israel on Iran.

In the immediate aftermath of the strike he remained standing in the shade of a cracked wall, staring at the ground and ignoring the commotion around him. He didn’t approach the building, which had been sealed off, but he didn’t move away either. His hands knotted together, then separated, then knotted again, in a repeated motion. Every time a paramedic emerged or an ambulance moved, he quickly raised his head, then returned to staring at the ground. He asked no one a direct question. He was only waiting for his daughter’s name to be called.

When families were finally directed to a gathering point to receive the bodies of their children, he slowly moved forward. When asked if he needed help, he shook his head silently and waited for his daughter’s body to be brought out.

“I cannot understand how a place where innocent children learn can be bombed like this,” Shariatmadar told Drop Site. “We are talking about small children who knew nothing of politics or wars. And yet they are the ones paying the highest price.”

Some 170 students were inside the building attending morning classes when the missile struck. At least 108 people were killed, according to the public prosecutor’s office in Minab, many of them schoolgirls between seven and 12 years old.  (more...)
