Iran, Israel Exchange Missile Strikes, Evacuations Hit Tehran, Tel Aviv

The Israel-Iran conflict has escalated sharply with Iran launching its most powerful missile strikes yet against Israeli targets, killing at least 24 Israelis and injuring hundreds, while Israel has responded with extensive airstrikes on Tehran and key Iranian military and nuclear sites. Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps called for residents in Tel Aviv to evacuate, and Israel issued urgent evacuation warnings for northern districts of Tehran, including District 3, which houses government ministries, foreign embassies, and media outlets. Israeli military spokespersons claim to have achieved full aerial superiority over Tehran, enabling strikes on command centers and missile launchers, while Iran continues to prepare for a prolonged conflict, warning the world will soon see new military innovations. The recent Israeli strikes have resulted in significant damage at Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility, marking the first time all three major Iranian nuclear sites—Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow—have been targeted. Civilians in Tehran and surrounding areas are fleeing en masse, with many seeking shelter far from the capital amid fears of further bombardment. Both sides have intensified attacks on military and civilian infrastructure, signaling a deepening and comprehensive confrontation.
