A lot of people don't realize just how exposed Iran is right now. The Israeli Air Force has been operating freely in their airspace for hours, hitting critical targets with terrifying precision. We're talking explosions in central Tehran, key scientists taken out, even their Defense Ministry struck. And yet, despite all this, the regime keeps pumping out propaganda like nothing's happening. Lol

No amount of lies can change the facts. Israel’s strikes are surgical and devastating, for Tehran.
So far Iran’s only answer is to blindly fire rockets and hope for the best. When the dust settles, the world will see the damage. And no amount of lies will cover up the truth. 🇮🇱🇮🇱

Israel is targeting specific military equipment, assets and scientists to stop the further development of nuclear capabilities in Iran.

Iran on the other hand is firing in all directions like a boxer who got a surprise TKO punch and is struggling to figure out what just hit them

Extensive strikes in Tehran after IDF warns Iranians near arms plants to evacuate

5 car bombs said to detonate in Iran’s capital, more nuclear scientists killed; IDF says it is hunting ballistic missile launchers aimed at Israel, and striking nuclear targets

There is fire on the mountain, run, run, run
Life sweet

Irannnnnnnnnnn
Ok oooooo

Iran’s IRNA news agency reported that five car bombs were detonated in Tehran. The report blamed Israel for the attacks.

Two sources in the Gulf told Reuters that at least 14 Iranian nuclear scientists had been killed in Israeli attacks since Friday, including by car bombs.

The names of nine of the scientists were published by the IDF on Sunday, and it said many of them were successors to Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the “father of the Iranian nuclear project,” who was allegedly assassinated by Israel in 2020.

The Israeli Air Force overnight bombed several Iranian ballistic missile launchers, along with air defense systems and radars, the military said, attaching footage of the strikes.

According to the IDF, some of the launchers that were struck were used to fire missiles at Israel overnight, in barrages that killed at least 10 people.

The IDF said it would continue to “hunt down” ballistic missile launchers in western Iran to prevent attacks on Israel.

Air defenses and radars were also struck “as part of the IDF’s aerial superiority in Iranian airspace,” the military said.



Additionally, some 80 targets in Tehran were hit overnight, according to the IDF.

The targets in the Iranian capital included fuel depots, the Iranian defense ministry headquarters, the “headquarters of the SPND nuclear project,” and other targets related to Iran’s nuclear program.

IAF fighter jets also hit gas infrastructure near Bandar Abbas. The military said the fuel and gas sites were used by Iran for military purposes and for its nuclear project.


On Saturday, jets attacked two fuel depots in Tehran, while Iranian media reported a “massive explosion” following an Israeli drone strike on the South Pars gas field.

The semi-official Tasnim news agency said production of 12 million cubic meters of gas was suspended following the South Pars attack, which resulted in a fire that the Iranian oil ministry said was later extinguished.

Oil fields — crucial to Iran’s economy — were not targeted in the first round of strikes, but a senior Israeli security official warned on Friday that if Iran were to target Israeli population centers with ballistic missiles — which it then did — Israel would target regime leaders and state infrastructure such as oil refineries.

In all, since early Friday, the IDF said it hit 720 separate assets in some 250 strikes in Iran.


Iranian media said Sunday that Israel attacked a facility affiliated with Iran’s defense ministry in the central city of Isfahan.

“One of the centers affiliated with the Ministry of Defense in Isfahan was attacked, and possible damages are under investigation,” ISNA news agency reported, quoting deputy provincial governor Akbar Salehi.

Iranian media also reported strikes on the Shiraz Electronics factory in the city of Shiraz, a company that produces radar and electronic equipment for the Iranian military, according to a US-based watchdog. According to CNN, the facility was destroyed.


Iran claimed Sunday it had arrested two individuals it accused of being members of the Mossad spy agency in Alborz province while they were preparing explosives and electronic devices, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported on Sunday.

Israel and Iran trade threats
After the IDF warned Iranians to evacuate military facilities in Iran, Defense Minister Israel Katz said Sunday the military “will strike the sites and continue to peel the skin off the Iranian snake in Tehran and everywhere, stripping it of nuclear capabilities and weapons systems.”

“The Iranian dictator is turning Tehran into Beirut and its residents into hostages for the sake of his regime’s survival,” he added.

Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi said that the attacks on Israel will only end once Israel halts its military campaign against the Islamic Republic.

“We are defending ourselves; our defense is entirely legitimate,” said Araghchi in a meeting with foreign diplomats, adding that “this defense is our response to aggression. If the aggression stops, naturally our responses will also stop.”

He said that the Israeli strikes on the offshore South Pars gas field Iran shares with Qatar were “a blatant aggression and a very dangerous act.”

“Dragging the conflict to the Persian Gulf is a strategic mistake, and it aims to drag the war beyond Iranian territory,” he said.

Conflict to take ‘weeks, not days,’ officials say
The conflict with Iran will take “weeks, not days,” according to American and Israeli officials quoted by CNN.

The officials said the operation has the White House’s implicit approval, with an Israeli official cited as saying the US president is on board with the weeks-long timeframe.

A US official was quoted as saying, “The Trump administration firmly believes this can be solved by continuing negotiations with the US,” with the exact length of the conflict dependent on Iran’s actions.

Years of hostility between Israel and Iran exploded into open conflict early Friday morning when Israel launched a major offensive against Iran and its nuclear program, hitting nuclear sites, missile bases and top military officials.

Israel said it had no choice but to attack Iran, and that it had gathered intelligence showing that Tehran was approaching “the point of no return” in its pursuit of nuclear weapons.

Military officials said that the IDF was preparing for heavy fire from Iran, but asserted that “at the end of the operation, there will be no nuclear threat” from the Islamic Republic.

"And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them." Schmuel L. Jackson

For a balanced update let us get reports from tel aviv,Jerusalem and other isreali cities.

Why are they hiding pictures of destructions there.

There are several reports. Maybe you chose to ignore them. I'm not obligated to feed you with that.🫤

Iran is such a weak country though,they got no response at all.I think only israel is military capable in the middle east

With what's happening in Iran in the last few days, Nigeria Army is more powerful than Iran abeg.

First day of war and all their top generals gets wiped out like chickens.

The mossads have infiltrated Iranian security. The 20 top chiefs of IRGC killed were in a meeting (covertly organized by mossads) after which spotters tracked and confirmed their positions at home and other locations before the assassination took place simultaneously 🤷. Isrealis will soon take over any airfield, that's when the vawulence will start.

Israeli is switching to regime change. Antiriot police stations are being destroyed.

Protests is being arranged.

So Iranian Regime is just another toothless barking dog. Lol. They are filled with hate but lack skills to hurt on a level playing field.

[b]Yeah, that's why they were plummeting Isreal with Sticks and Stones
In fact the stone was so ridiculous that Isreal residents keep kicking it back to Iran with Iron Dome Bat, Oponu.

but they have mean supersonic missiles...give it to them. However, israeli war strategist claimed it was part of the sacrifice they agreed to take. They agreed Israel is going to take hits, but Iran would be decimated by then.

More missiles will still hit israel. Its a pain you suffer for cutting the head of anaconda. You will suffer bruces.

Israel Is doing the Lords work right now.
I don't know why the regime is allowing the idf to be ordering Iranians out of their homes.
This is a shame.

You get the point now....
That's why I often laugh at them islamists here when they start jubilating when Iran score a small point...

hezbollah destroyed the whole of northern israel in 2024...

Israel understand this sacrifice. Muslim jubilating for hitting telaviv is not war objective. Iran has no war objective.

They are just firing back to hurt israel, like a wounded snake. Israel is not trying to hurt iran. They are focused on war objectives.

Pictures I'm looking for are Iran's fighter jets. Seems like scarce commodity.

This is very risky. Even though the Israeli government has made it clear that this war is not aimed at Iranian people but the government. But just imagine if missiles were aimed or mistakenly lands on those gridlock? Mehn, that'll be bloo.dy.
