🚨🇮🇱🇮🇷 OVERNIGHT STRIKES INJURE 94 IN ISRAEL, DAMAGE MOUNTS UNDER MEDIA BLACKOUT

Iran launched multiple missile volleys overnight, targeting central and northern Israel.

94 people were treated for injuries, and fires broke out from impacts and interceptor debris, according to Israel’s Health Ministry.

Military censorship is limiting reporting, but cities confirm rising structural damage - including 30 buildings that are unrepairable in Bat Yam alone.

For news that favour Iran, stay tuned to Al Jazeera.

For Western propaganda, you know where to go.

He just wants to hold on to what's left of his prestige. If his citizens perceive him as been weak then his regime is gone. You don't want to show mercy but you fire less missiles each passing day Explain that. The problem with this man is ego.

Israel is never going to allow any of it's close neighbors possess nuclear weapons, back in the 1980s they destroyed Iraq's nuclear program, a program that was financed by France. During the Iraq Iran war, Iraq were being funded by the western powers, including China and Soviet Union, Israel was doing the opposite, helping Iran. They took the opportunity to negotiate for Jews who were living in Iran to return to Israel.

1972,During the Munich summer Olympics terrorist attack, 9 Israeli athletes were kidnapped, 2 were killed by the Palestinian Militant Organization, Israel asked permission from West Germany to rescue their citizens, Germany were claiming experts and refused the offer. During the rescue attempt headed by West Germany, all 9 hostages were killed.
Israel hunted down each one of the kidnappers and killed them.

Isreal vowed never to allow such a thing happen again, so in 1976 When the PLO hijacked a plane full of Israeli citizens, flew it to Uganda. Idi Amin refused handing over the hijackers nor the passengers. Israel planned a secret mission, flew soldiers into Uganda, killed all the hijackers and left with all hostages. Idi Ami killed one of the hostages in retaliation, a old woman that was taken to the hospital before the rescue mission flew in. Israel still negotiated to get her body.

Fun fact, the person that led the mission was Yonathan Netanyahu, the elder brother to Benjamin Netanyahu the current prime Minister. He died in the operation.

Hate Israel all you want, but those guys are going to shed blood before they allow one Jew die in captive any where in the world.
You are 100% correct. I saw the documentary yesterday though they didn't include the part one of the hostages being killed, but they did mention of having 2 casualties and reminiscing their failed mission in Germany.

"Never underestimate a people whose myths are soaked in fire, whose poets chant of vengeance, and whose children are raised on stories of empire."

There is a dangerous illusion being peddled in media and military circles: that Iran-home of the Persians-is some soft target, an easy strike for Israel's military machine. This belief is not only historically illiterate, it's geopolitically reckless.

Iran is not just a country. It is a civilization. A 2,500-year-old empire that has fought, fractured, and reassembled through the jaws of history's bloodiest crucibles.


The Islamic Republic may present as a theocracy-but it functions like a fortress-mentality empire. Its generals study not just Islam, but Tacticus, Khomeini, and Genghis Khan alike. They believe in asymmetry, spiritual warfare, martyrdom, and the long game.

Not a Desert Militia - A Shadow Arsenal

Iran is not Iraq in 2003. It is not Syria in 2012. It is a regional power with:
• Ballistic missiles (2,000+ km range)
• Precision drone warfare (witness Yemen, Gaza, Syria)
• Cyber capabilities rivaling mid-tier global powers
• Undercover paramilitary units across five countries (Hezbollah, PMF, Houthis, etc.)

This is a chessboard, not checkers.


Israel's Iron, Persia's Fire

Yes, Israel is a formidable opponent-nuclear-armed, tech-savvy, intelligence-rich. But here's what Tel Aviv knows (even if Twitter doesn't):

Every Israeli airstrike risks awakening not just Tehran, but an entire Shiite axis primed for existential warfare.

Remember, Iran's concept of war is not victory by territory, but legacy by defiance. They do not fear death-they often script it into their strategic doctrine.

You don't defeat a people who name their missiles after martyrs, or who believe resistance is sacred theology.



Gallantry Beyond Missiles

Persian gallantry isn't just about weapons-it's woven into their art, their language, their resolve. Even today, in the face of sanctions, cyberattacks, and assassinations of nuclear scientists, they stand unbroken.
• In Karbala, they remember Husayn's refusal to kneel.
• In Khaybar, they chant of Ali's return.
• In Gaza, they invest-not just in arms, but in ideology.

This isn't a country trying to win battles. It's a civilization trying to outlast empires.
Storyland. You should have whispered this nonsense into the ears of the Macedonians that crushed the Persian empire.

Similar rhetoric and propaganda. Reminds me of the "the mother of all battles" echoed by Saddam at the onset of the gulf war.

War is not fought online.

Those mad supporters should bear arms and troop into Iran.

Because Khamenei needs all the support he can get right now.

Israel just finished with Gaza and Lebanon.
Iran had all that time to prep their arsenal as Israel promised them a handshake when their Gaza business is done.

I'm very disappointed at their performance so far.

Howhuhhuh? Iran shot missiles from iran and bypassed IRAQ US bases, American aircraft carriers with top of the world anti-missile defenses, Passed through Jordan us/uk bases with defences, cyprus, then got to Isreal and defeated the Iron dome, davids slings defences and still hit their targets least i forget used that their old Tom cats fighter jets to down not one but two f35 modern jets...

COMMON THATS NEVER BEEN DONE.
Re: ' Battle Begins', Iran Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei by Eriokanmi: 10:48am On Jun 18, 2025
Hope the world is hearing this. Tomorrow, nobody should say he stands with iran oo. The entire world is taking note.

By the way, Trump should find a way to end the war. Nothing like peace my people. The innocent don't have to die cos of someone's stupidity. Na so gaza own take start wey Palestine enter istrael, dey kidnap and cut people's throats during their carnival. Whilst all these were happening, nobody said anything, until Gaza became a ghost town as seen today.
