Early Saturday, Israel’s military announced “precise strikes” on Iranian military targets, citing them as a direct response to “months of continuous attacks” from Tehran. The strikes, now confirmed as complete, reportedly targeted specific military facilities in Iran. According to Iranian sources, two soldiers were killed in the operation.
Iran’s state television confirmed that several powerful explosions were heard in and around Tehran, though no official statement has been issued regarding their source. Later, additional explosions were reported, with Iranian state media attributing them to activated air defense systems.
Fox News reported that the White House was briefed shortly before Israel proceeded with the air strikes.
