โ€” ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท/๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Ismael Baqaei, on X:

'A video of a violinist playing a love song amidst the thunder of Israeli missiles over residential areas of Tehran.

Here is Iran: proud, courageous, civilized, artistic, dynamic, peace-loving, patriotic, loving life, and determined to defend a land that has never bowed down in the face of countless hardships and hostilities.

For Iranians, Netanyahu's aggressive war is reminiscent of Saddam Hussein's imposed war on Iran in the 1970's.

We are all determined to defend our beloved homeland and our dignity with all our might, against a genocidal enemy whose expansionist and warmongering ideology knows no bounds.'

'Fascinating' for a lack of a better word, to see how the different missiles hit. You can see the Iron Dome struggle with the faster (ballistic?) missiles that just call to the ground in less than a second.

The Bazan Group, which operates the Haifa power plant and oil refineries, reports major damage to the power plant. Operations at all of the company's refineries and subsidiaries have been paralyzed. Iran's blow was severe.

Well it's break time at work.

Sadly Israel has conducted yet another massacre at the food point in Gaza, killing at least 74 people. I feel like with the whole Iran attacks the focus is shifted from their genocide and it allows them to do more attacks unnoticed.

A lot of countries are also evacuating their citizens from Iran and/or Israel so they seem to be treating it rather seriously.

Iranian lib free-associates bombing Iran with Iranian freedom. Is this the best we can really expect from Le Resistance Americana?

Apartment buildings, car bombs, and now TV stations. Israel's modus operandi appears to be attacking everything but military targets. https://www.gbnews.com/news/world/israel-iran-war-state-tv

They want Iranians to live in fear of bombs dropping on them anywhere, at any time.

And NOW red lines exist. I seem to remember that being part of discourse a couple years ago, and the Zionazis and the westoids agreed they didn't exist

These are the most vile, dishonest and cynical narrative managers that ever existed.

At least four waves of missiles were fired at Israel from Iran today, but not many in total โ€“ about 10 or so maximum.

Having monitored these missile launches for the past week, there seems to be a slight change in tactics: less missiles but much more disruption, launched over different periods of time.

Today, raid alert sirens sounded for up to 40 minutes in parts of Israel. One damaged an electricity substation, knocking out electricity to 8,000 residents in the Ashdod port area. Itโ€™s now been restored.

And this is coming at a financial cost to Israel. According to the tax authority director, so far, 40,000 claims for compensation have been made by Israelis, totalling $1.3bn. Thirty buildings will have to be demolished.

โ€œWeโ€™ve never seen so much damage,โ€ says the tax director.

People who keep posting 'explosions in Tehran', 'explosions in Esfahan', etc. are literally just reposting from Iranian channels who are hearing AD being activated against drones.

As stated many times in the past few days, the VAST majority of attacks on Iran are not being carried out by Israeli fighter jets, but one-way drones or quadcopters. AD is active almost every night which causes the sounds.

The only areas consistently subject to real and intense Israeli airstrikes are Tabriz, Kermanshah, and occasionallly Tehran.
