Early this morning, Israeli missiles rained down on Iran’s capital, Tehran, and other key locations across the country.
In a shocking military operation dubbed “Operation Rising Lion”, Israel launched a massive surprise attack on Iran early Friday morning, striking the capital, Tehran, and key nuclear facilities across the country.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared the operation was aimed at “striking the heart of Iran’s nuclear ambitions.” He said the strikes may last several days and called Iran a threat to Israel’s existence.
In response, Iran fired over 100 drones toward Israeli territory, as confirmed by the Israeli army spokesperson Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin. He added that Israel is now on high alert, preparing for further escalation.
One of the most shocking outcomes of the Israeli strikes was the death of Maj. Gen. Hossein Salami, the powerful commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Iranian state TV confirmed the news, calling him the most senior military figure killed since the Iran-Iraq war.
The enemy thinks it can treat us like unarmed Palestinians,” Salami said a day earlier. “But we know real war.”
