On 12 June, Israel launched a missile attack on Iran’s nuclear installations under Operation Rising Lion. In retaliation, Iran started attacking Israel’s capital, Tel Aviv, and surrounding residential areas. Continuous attacks have been going on from both sides for the last 100 hours. There has been a large-scale loss of life and property, which has made the situation in the Middle East even more dire.
Israel selectively targeted Iran’s nuclear installations and military installations under Operation Rising Lion. Israel carried out this attack in protest against Iran’s nuclear program.
Iran launched hundreds of ballistic missiles and drone attacks on Israel under True Promise 3 since 13 June, in which cities like Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Rehovot were targeted. Israel damaged Iran’s major nuclear enrichment center, Natanz, which is the most important part of Iran’s nuclear program.
Israel killed many senior Iranian commanders including Iran’s Chief of Staff Major General Mohammad Bagheri, Commander-in-Chief of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps General Hussain Salami, Chief of IRGC’s Aerospace Force Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, Deputy Commander of Iranian Army General Ghulam Ali Rashid, Deputy Head of Intelligence Department General Ghulam Reza Mehrabi, Deputy Head of Operations Department in the General Staff of Armed Forces General Mehdi Rabbani, Chief of Intelligence Organization of RGD Mohammad Kazmi and Deputy Commander of Iranian Army Major General Ali Shadmani.
Along with this, Israel killed more than 9 nuclear scientists, besides many senior army officials of Iran. This is a big blow to Iran’s military and nuclear leadership. Israel destroyed more than 120 surface-to-surface missile launchers of Iran and the headquarters of the Kurdish Force, which weakened Iran’s counter-attack capability.
The destruction of an Iranian refueling plane at Mashhad airport and the attack on Quds Force bases in Tehran show Israel’s long-range military capability. Israel’s air defense systems such as Arrow, David’s Sling and Iron Dome intercepted most of Iran’s more than 100 missiles and 300 drones, only a few missiles could penetrate Israel, causing damage.
The US, Britain and Jordan also intercepted drones and missiles in defense of Israel, which further strengthened Israel’s defense. The number of casualties in Israel was much less than that of Iran. Israel’s precise defense and shelter system ensured the safety of civilians.
More than 200 Israeli fighter jets attacked more than 100 targets in five phases, which shows its military superiority. Let us tell you that 224 Iranians have been killed in Israeli attacks so far, while 1,481 people have been injured. Meanwhile, 24 people have been killed in Israel up to now, even as more than 600 are injured.
Meanwhile, Iran’s ‘True Promise 3’ military operation is going on in response to Israeli attacks. Under this, Iran is firing more than a hundred and fifty ballistic missiles closer to Israel. Iran’s essential aim is to smash Israel’s capital, Tel Aviv. Along with this, Bat Yam, a city adjacent to Tel Aviv, is also being targeted.
