Israel says its military has carried out “precise strikes” on military targets inside Iran. Explosions were reportedly heard in Tehran, Iran’s capital city.
The attack is part of Israel’s retaliatory response to the barrage of over 180 missiles that the Iranian regime launched into Israel about three weeks ago.
It was not clear what targets Israel struck at the time of filing this story.
A leading Israeli newspaper, the Jerusalem Posts is also reporting that explosions were heard in Syria, Iraq, and the Iranian city of Karaj.
Spokesperson of IDF, Daniel Hagari released a video on X stating, “In response to months of continuous attacks from the regime in Iran against the State of Israel—right now the Israel Defense Forces is conducting precise strikes on military targets in Iran. The regime in Iran and its proxies in the region have been relentlessly attacking Israel since October 7th—on seven fronts—including direct attacks from Iranian soil. Like every other sovereign country in the world, the State of Israel has the right and the duty to respond. Our defensive and offensive capabilities are fully mobilized. We will do whatever necessary to defend the State of Israel and the people of Israel.”
