"floating at the bottom of the sea"

So you believe sunken ships can't float under water? That they remain exactly in the place they leave the surface?

"In summary, while sunken ships may appear to be submerged, they can float under certain conditions due to the principles of buoyancy and design features that help them maintain their ability to float."

Iran's expert council has chosen Mojtaba Khamenei, the 56-year-old son of the late Ali Khamenei, as the new Supreme Leader.

The Iranian opposition-affiliated Iran International television channel claims that Mojtaba Khamenei is a creature of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the most radical element of the Iranian elite that effectively controls the country.
The IRGC traditionally opposes any compromise with the United States, advocating "war to the bitter end."

The election of a new Supreme Leader has not yet been officially announced.

In recent days, the Israeli Defense Ministry has noted a significant decrease in rocket launches from Iran toward Israel. According to security sources, this decrease is due, among other things, to serious damage to the rocket launchers as a result of attacks carried out by Israel and the United States, military correspondent Itai Blumenthal reported today.

According to data released this evening, there has been a downward trend in the number of rocket launches toward Israel in recent days. About 90 rockets were launched on February 28, about 65 on March 1, about 25 on March 2, and only about 20 on March 3.

NEW YORK CITY — In the wake of U.S. attacks on Iran, Mayor Zohran Mamdani has vowed to launch retaliatory strikes on Bernie's Kosher Delicatessen.

Mamdani stated that after receiving a super-confidential briefing on the situation in Iran, he made the bold decision to direct a forceful response against the deli on 54th Street.

"Bernie will pay for this," said Mamdani. "There won't be a kosher pickle left when I am done with it. Bernie and his kosher deli must answer for the evil actions of the U.S. military against Iran. Prepare to reap the fury, Bernie!"

According to sources, Bernie's Kosher Delicatessen has been in business for 47 years, with a reputation for excellent reuben sandwiches. "Bernie's is awesome. Great pastrami," said local resident Donald McGrath. "I hope they have a miniature Iron Dome or something. It would be a shame to lose the place over a war in Iran."

At publishing time, Mamdani had expanded the assault lines to include all of the regional banks.

Official statement from the Iranian army:

Over the past 24 hours, the integrated air defense control systems of Khatam al-Anbiya (peace be upon him) have destroyed six advanced Hermes drones in the areas of Isfahan, Qasr-e-Shirin, Tabriz, Khuzestan, and the Tehran region.

Since the beginning of the war, 35 advanced enemy drones have been shot down by ground air defense forces, Air Force fighters, and units of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps under the control of the integrated air defense network.
