Israel at War

The IDF believes it has neutralized the majority of Iran’s ballistic missile launchers during recent strikes, leaving Tehran with an estimated 100 to 200 operational launchers.

The US president says that after such a surrender and the selection of new leadership, the US and its allies would help Iran rebuild and stabilize the country.

Sources tell The Washington Post the intelligence included the locations of US warships and aircraft in the Middle East.

Senior officials in Washington are expressing satisfaction with Israel’s performance and its cooperation with the US in the war against Iran. War Secretary Pete Hegseth said that “when you have an ally with both the will and the capability, it produces amazing results.” According to assessments, the pounding of Iranian forces is expected to continue for another two weeks, while US officials hope it could eventually lead to regime change in Tehran, possibly with the help of Kurdish rebels.

In his first statement since the start of the war, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir said: “We destroyed about 80% of Iran's air defense systems and more than 60% of its ballistic missile launchers.”

According to a report by Sky News Arabia, the Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister said Iran is ready to "abandon its nuclear program on condition that the United States presents a satisfactory alternative offer." This came as President Donald Trump declined to rule out talks with the Iranian leadership.

Baku summons Iran's ambassador after drones strike airport terminal and village, warning Tehran of "appropriate response measures."

Home Front Command warns rocket and drone attacks from Lebanon are set to increase, even as the Iranian front shows signs of tapering off.

Complete air dominance by the US and Israel over Iran enables constant monitoring of the underground launch bases built by the Islamic Republic. As a result, launch attempts are thwarted in advance and strategic bombers destroy the bunker entrances.

Fox News reports that thousands of Iraqi Kurdish rebels have begun a ground attack inside Iran. Kurdish sources deny the report, saying cautious coordination is underway along the border between Iraq’s Kurdistan region and Iran.
