The Israeli military reported early on Tuesday that it carried out \u201cseveral extensive strikes\u201d on what it said were missile sites and other military targets in western Iran, striking dozens of missile and drone facilities.<\/p>\n
Iranian media reported that loud explosions were heard in the northwestern city of Tabriz, home to an air force base that Israel has repeatedly targeted since it launched a surprise assault<\/a> on Iran\u2019s military and nuclear facilities on Friday.<\/p>\n Three people were killed and four injured in strikes on the central city of Kashan, Iran\u2019s state-run Nour News reported.<\/p>\n A residential building was struck in Tehran, and three people were rescued from the rubble, the reports added.<\/p>\n Israel\u2019s military said Iran had also fired more missiles, reporting that its forces were working to intercept them.<\/p>\n Explosions were heard over Tel Aviv and Jerusalem among other areas. Images showed plumes of dark smoke rising from the site of a strike in Herzliya as emergency services were deployed at the scene.<\/p>\n Israel\u2019s national emergency service said 10 people were injured while running to shelters after air raid sirens sounded in Tel Aviv.<\/p>\n Al Jazeera\u2019s Nour Odeh, reporting from Amman, said the Israeli military censor has forbidden the publication of images and information about Herzliya, classifying it as \u201csensitive\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cThat usually means that it\u2019s either a military, intelligence or strategic asset or site that the Israeli military censor does not want to disclose,\u201d Odeh said.<\/p>\n She added that Iran\u2019s IRGC said in a recent statement that they targeted the \u201cintelligence buildings in Herzliya, the Mossad and the Israeli (Aman) military intelligence, so that claim remains unanswered from the Israeli side\u201d.<\/p>\n Israel claims another slain general<\/p>\n Amid the strikes, the Israeli military claimed that it had assassinated another senior Iranian military official.<\/p>\n General Ali Shadmani was killed in a strike by the Israeli air force in central Tehran through the use of precise intelligence, the military said, describing him as Iran\u2019s wartime chief of staff, \u201csenior-most military official\u201d \u200b\u200band the closest military adviser to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.<\/p>\n Shadmani was reportedly appointed to his new post after Israel assassinated the former commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, Gholam Ali Rashid, on Friday.<\/p>\n Iran did not immediately comment on the claim, which came days after Israel assassinated a slew<\/a> of Iran\u2019s top generals as well as nuclear scientists.<\/p>\n \u2018Evacuate Tehran\u2019<\/p>\n The attacks unfolded in the face of growing calls internationally for the bitter foes to de-escalate.<\/p>\n![\"Police](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/2025-06-17T064916Z_500606722_RC264FAV9H2D_RTRMADP_3_IRAN-NUCLEAR-ISRAEL-1750143910.jpg\")
