buildings still ablaze in the early hours of the morning while others are on the brink of total collapse The Iranian capital came under Israeli strikes overnight with explosions and thick clouds of smoke rising into the sky over Tehran Strikes also hit the city of Natans in the middle of the country home to Iran’s main uranian enrichment site Israel sent out a clear message Its aim is to target Iranian nuclear and military sites Moments ago Israel launched Operation Rising Lion a targeted military operation to roll back the Iranian threat to Israel’s very survival For decades the tyrants of Thran have brazenly openly called for Israel’s destruction They’ve backed up their genocidal rhetoric with a program to develop nuclear weapons The latest Israeli strikes on Iran have claimed to the lives of several high-ranking officials Among them is Hussein Salami the head of the Revolutionary Guard and General Muhammad Bahri the chief of staff of the Iranian armed forces They come at a time when Iranian nuclear negotiations between Tehran and Washington have stalled but are due to pick up again on Sunday The United States had already hinted on Thursday that Israeli strikes could be imminent but the White House claims that it’s not behind this operation We are not involved in strikes against Iran Israel advised us that they believe this action was necessary for its self-defense The administration has taken all necessary steps to protect our forces and remain in close contact with our regional partners Let me be clear Iran should not target US interests or personnel Iranian airspace was immediately closed and no flights are coming from Tel Aviv airport either as Israel says it’s preparing for a retaliation and has declared a state of emergency
Israel launched widescale strikes against Iran on Friday, saying it targeted nuclear facilities, ballistic missile factories and military commanders during the start of a prolonged operation to prevent Tehran from building an atomic weapon. Iran had launched about 100 drones towards Israeli territory in retaliation, which Israel is working to intercept.

Finally Iranian people will be free from oppression
Iranian people need freedom now
This world is crazy how can you have nuclear and you don't want others to have it!
Islamic world claims Iran is the most powerful country to protect it's religion.
It was only a matter of time and we should all be afraid that the next one destroys all of humanity on the planet. How flaming stupid can they be?
Irans air defence system was sleeping while raising lion operations was busy waking up people in Tehran
Long overdue. Iran has openly admitted that they are supporting groups, which want to destroy Irael.
Iran will have less time and resources helping Russia's war on Ukraine.
Even the US was so scared of iran that it distanced itself from Israel. Mr. Yahoo will likely have sleepless nights 😂
no country should be allowed to hit nuclear sites this is just to dangerous
The iranian says back then it was "iran dome" 😂😂 where is iran dome now???
Stop the Fabricated lies
Who are Iran's friends? Russia and China? Can they and will they help Iran? Well Russia is busy with its own war. And China, are they afraid to help Iran? Or are they afraid that if Iran falls they are next? And how can they help Iran? Could they manufacture 1000's of missiles, radar systems, etc. stamped made in Iran or made in Russia? Could China supply complex state of the art weapons, with AI chatbots that speak fluent Persian? so Iranian soldiers don't have to operate the leading edge weapons with Chinese instructions?
