  • Iran Strikes After Israel's 'Operation Rising Lion'; Barrage Of Missiles Fired Over Tel Aviv

    Iran Strikes After Israel's 'Operation Rising Lion'; Barrage Of Missiles Fired Over Tel Aviv

    Explosions were heard across Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and the occupied West Bank after Iran launched hundreds of ballistic missiles at Israel in retaliation for an unprecedented Israeli strike on Iran's Natanz nuclear facility, which reportedly killed top Iranian commanders. Israel's military named its operation “Rising Lion.” While Iran claimed to have fired hundreds of missiles, Israel stated fewer than 100 were launched, most intercepted or falling short. The U.S. military assisted in intercepting incoming missiles. Buildings in Ramat Gan were damaged, with at least five injured in the Tel Aviv area. The attacks sparked fears of a wider regional conflict, though Iran’s allies, Hamas and Hezbollah, have already been weakened. Global leaders, including the UN and EU, urged restraint. Turkish, Malaysian, and Pakistani leaders condemned Israel’s actions, calling them provocative. The escalation has heightened tensions around Iran’s nuclear ambitions and raised alarm over broader regional instability.

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the Iranian people, urging them to rise against their regime and declaring that Israel had launched a major offensive targeting Iran’s nuclear and military infrastructure. The strikes reportedly killed senior military commanders and nuclear scientists, destroyed a key enrichment facility, and damaged Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities. Netanyahu warned of further action, claiming Iran is at its weakest. In response, Iran launched a barrage of ballistic missiles at Israeli cities, including Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, triggering air raid sirens and widespread evacuations. Explosions lit up the skies, though no casualties were immediately reported. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei vowed retaliation, stating that Israel had initiated a war. The situation marks a significant escalation in long-standing tensions over Iran’s nuclear program, which Israel views as a critical threat. International observers fear the conflict could spiral into a broader regional war across the Middle East.
