WASHINGTON (The Thursday Times) — US ne Peer ko Iran ke Qeshm Island par hamla kiya, US ke ahalkaron ne bataya. Yeh pichhle chand hafton mein jaan boojh kar khamosh rakhe gaye mehdood hamlon ke silsile ka taza hamla hai, aur yeh Sadr Donald Trump ke is bayan ke chand ghante baad kiya gaya ke kai maheenon se koi larai nahin hui aur Tehran ke saath muahida ho sakta hai.
Irani sarkari zarae iblagh ne pehle jazeere par kai dhamakon ki khabar di thi, jo Strait of Hormuz ke dahane par waqe hai aur jahan zer-e-zameen missile ka aik bara markaz, behri adda aur samandari pani ko meetha banane ka aik bara plant hai. US Central Command ne fori taur par tabsira nahin kiya, aur Defense Department ne sawalat us ki taraf bhej diye.
Ahalkaron ne kaha ke yeh hamle kai hafton se jari thay aur inhein chhota aur bina elan ke rakha ja raha tha taake Iran ke khilaf bari fauji muhim dobara shuru karne ke kisi irade ka ishara na jaye. Kuch ne inhein difai qarar diya, jin ka maqsad Iran ko strait mein tijarati jahazon par hamle ki azadi se mehroom rakhna tha.
Aik US ahalkar ne kaha ke hamlon ka hadaf "US assets ke khilaf surface-to-air missiles istemal karne wale Irani" thay, aur aik aur ahalkar ne kaha ke yeh waqia "wasee hamlon ka aghaz" nahin hai. Iran ke Revolutionary Guards ne Peer ko is se pehle dawa kiya tha ke unhon ne Qeshm ke junoob mein do US jasoos drones qabze mein le liye aur strait ke mashriq mein aik MQ-9 drone tabah kar diya. Irani zarae iblagh ne bandargah Bandar Lengeh mein bhi dhamakon ki khabar di.
"Hamari Iran ke saath jang hui. Hum jeet gaye," Trump ne Peer ko sahafiyon se kaha. "Mujhe nahin maloom ke aap ise jang kahenge bhi ya nahin, kyunke hum kai maheenon se koi larai nahin kar rahe." Un se poocha gaya ke kya woh Mangal ke midterm elections ke baad Iran par hamle par ghaur kar rahe hain, toh unhon ne jawab diya "nahin". Naib Sadr JD Vance ne usi din kaha tha ke Washington ne muahide ki taraf "kuch pesh raft ki hai".
Gulf ke mulkon ko tayyar rehne ko kaha gaya
US ke ahalkaron ne yeh bhi kaha ke Central Command ne izafi missile difai nizam aur gola barood khitte mein muntaqil kar diya hai, aur Gulf ke mulkon ko midterms ke fauran baad US ke aik mukhtasar, shadeed operation ke liye tayyar rehne ko kaha gaya hai. Aala ahalkaron ne mutabadil pesh kiye hain, jin mein mazeed fazai hamlon se le kar sakht pabandiyan aur Irani tijarat ki zyada sakht nakabandi tak shamil hain, aur intizamia ke ahalkaron ka kehna hai ke sadr abhi in sab par ghaur kar rahe hain.
Iran ki wazarat-e-kharja ke tarjuman Esmaeil Baghaei ne Peer ko kaha ke kisi bhi deal ki zimmedari ab Washington par hai aur Iran ke mutalibat ko munasib qarar diya. Iran ke aala rehnumaon, jin mein Rehbar-e-Aala Mojtaba Khamenei bhi shamil hain, ne khabardar kiya hai ke agar US ne jang ko dobara bhadkaya toh Iran khitte ke andar aur us se bahar donon jagah jawabi karrawai karega.
Qatar ke salis Peer ki shaam Tehran pahunch gaye taake aise deal par muzakrat dobara shuru kar sakein jis ke teht Iran US pabandiyon mein riayat ke badle Strait of Hormuz ko jald dobara khol dega, muzakrat se waqif aik sifaratkar ne bataya. Jang ke poore dauran Pakistan bhi aik markazi salis raha hai.
Tel ki qeematon mein izafa
Hamle ki khabar ke baad Asia ke ibtidai karobar mein tel ki qeematon mein izafa hua. Brent crude taqreeban 0.5% barh kar $105.25 fi barrel par pahunch gaya, aur US crude $96.93 par tha, jabke Peer ko samjhaute ki ummeed par donon mein 7% se zyada kami aayi thi.
