Israel Strikes Iran!

In a major air assault, Israeli warplanes targeted Iran's nuclear facilities and top military commanders. The capital Tehran, as well as cities like Tabriz, were bombed repeatedly. Iran’s Chief of General Staff and the Commander of the Revolutionary Guards were reportedly killed.

Iranian state television confirmed that residential areas in Tehran were hit, and among the casualties were civilians, including children.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the attack as part of the "Rising Lion Operation" and stated that Iran poses a threat to Israel’s survival.

Israel has declared a state of emergency, anticipating potential retaliatory attacks "in the near future."

Iran vowed a response and accused the United States of supporting the Israeli assault. The U.S. strongly denied involvement. President Trump stated that he had prior knowledge of the strikes but emphasized that the U.S. played no role.
