Israeli forces have launched preemptive strikes targeting Iran’s regime infrastructure and military facilities, officials confirmed amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.

The strikes, described as preventive measures, aim to neutralize threats posed by Iran’s military capabilities. Explosions were reported in Tehran, with Israeli military sources indicating precise operations against key regime and defense sites.
Netanyahu’s Statement
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that the joint operation with the United States seeks to eliminate dangers from the Iranian regime. “We will create conditions for the Iranian people to determine their own fate,” he emphasized.
Iran’s Response
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps announced the launch of drones and missiles toward Israel in retaliation. Iranian officials condemned the attacks as a violation of international law and an act of invasion. Israel’s air defense systems remain active against incoming threats.
