Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on June 15 that Israel had killed Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps intelligence chief Brig. Gen. Mohammad Kazemi and his deputy, General Hassan Mohaqiq.
“Moments ago, I can tell you we got their chief intelligence officer and his deputy in Tehran,” the primer told Fox News anchor Bret Baier.
Ahead of Netanyahu’s announcement a violent of waves of Israeli strikes hit the heart of the Iranian capital, Tehran, with reports suggesting that the Ministry of Intelligence building was among the targets. The strikes led to a state of panic, with many civilian casualties reported. Thousands were also spotted fleeing the capital.
The opening strikes of Operation Rising Lion – the ongoing Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear program and offensive capabilities – claimed the lives of some of the Islamic Republic’s most senior leaders, including military commander Mohammad Bagheri, IRGC chief Hossein Salami, and head of the Khatam-al Anbiya Central Headquarters, Gholam Ali Rashid.
In addition to military commanders, at least 14 Iranian nuclear scientists have been killed in Israeli attacks, including in car bombs, since the start of the operation on June 13, according to Reuters.
The names of nine of the scientists were published by Israel on June 14, which said that many of them were successors to Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the “father of the Iranian nuclear project,” who was allegedly assassinated by the Mossad spy agency in 2020.
These assassinations, which represented an intelligence success for Israel, crippled Iran’s command and control chain for hours.
Iran’s offensive capabilities, mainly its missile forces, have already recovered. However, the air defenses of the Islamic Republic are still struggling. It is also unclear if the country is taking measures to fix its operation security issues.

you are talking about the colonists in haifa today or in those under the rubble of tel aviv? hahahahaha
this planet is sick, it has politicians
“shitfront” moderators deleted my comments because they hate that i’m right about iran disappearing into a cloud of smoke like syria and that thousands of years of history will be gone overnight. i bet iranian command is lamenting that they should have fought israel in unison with hamas and hezbollah. instead of allowing israel to kill them off one by one. hell as their nation disappears into a cloud of smoke i bet there is a lot of regrets right now!
netanyahu, is that you?
you know it’s not going well for the little hats when their trolls have to work overnight and despite the volume of drivel they inflict upon us, they still complain their posts are deleted

“first hit then think” that’s the mentality of jews and americans

iran needs to get rid of these chicken shut liberals, israel is planning more attacks, attack them everywhere do not hold back like hizbullah. do not be scared their faith is sealed. do not give them breeding room.
south-front stupid idiots actually really think that iran is going to win this. we will watch iran disappear into a cloud of smoke and just like syria, a thousand years of history will be gone overnight. the “axis of resistance” is over and once iran is dealt with, then we will deal the final blow to the russians!
has it occurred to anyone that if two steerable hypersonic glide vehicles, each capable of carrying a quantity of fissile material below critical mass, were to hit the same location at the same moment, that the combined shock wave would be enough to cause criticality? just sayin’…….
irving kristol, is that you?
what’s up ? getting a bit cramped and hot inside that air raid shelter ? no power 🫨 and you’re staying put too, oh yes. should’ve left when you could. oh dear 😆

so when the frack is xi chink ping going to make ihis move into formosa. what the frack is wrong with him , is he too busy playing ping pong.
damn, the israelis have literally wiped out all of their enemies in the middle east. i bet the chicken shit iranians wished they would have attacked israel as soon as they begin their war in gaza. now they are about to be destroyed without anyone left to help them! israel has literally mastered the strategy of ” divide and conquer.”
when will the new nickel grass start?

>> it is also unclear if the country is taking measures to fix its operation security issues.<< while assinating irans scientists has been a western blood sport for a decade or so. gheeeezuss griiist
kicking the iaea spies out of the country (probably tomorrow) is a first step.
they’re successfully rounding up these 5th column insurgents at present. sounds like there’s a really big input from the local population in detaining these moss-ars-ad curs.
another shithead joo experiment down the flusher.
us is the greatest bastard… invade iran if you can, cowards! you wont take out the government with this shitty things… hormuz closed tomorrow! yankee go to die in persian gulf!
first wave hitted haifa, second wave incoming… liberals in the kremlin in panic mode already? beloved israel is burning… southfront is zionist propaganda!
russia and ussa are zionist occupied
i’ve been censored twice in a reply.
you’ve definitely hit a nerve.
next it’ll be kinzhals on their way – to an unspecified middle eastern destination.
decapitation strike has forced top iranian officials to flee the country!!!
syria 2.0!!!
eheheheh
nuttyyahoo is skulking in a british bunker in cyprus. unless shlomo can get his us goy golem to pull his chestnuts out of the fire, he is toast. “here’s another fine mess you’ve gotten me into.”
what do we know/ what can we guess after 3 days? – this is not going israel’s way, and panic is setting in. iran is hitting back successfully, causing real damage, though not as much as israel. tel aviv and most towns hit, israel’s nuclear programme, weizmann centre, mossad hq, israeli tel aviv command centre, haifa refineries, hypersonic missiles used. israeli air defence failing. even drones getting through. – iran’s air defence now operating. reports of f35s shot down.
israel may have hit a lot of decoys in initial strike. – iran may announce a withdrawal from npt/ iaea, / closure of hormuz tomorrow. – israel wanted regime change – no signs of this. it also wanted the nuclear facilities destroyed, but most of these are intact. – iran is a huge country and israel lacks staying power. serviceable aircraft, ordnance, interceptor missiles. – the longer it goes on, the worse it gets for israel. and the more likely direct us involvement. what evidence
is there of this? israel is frantically demanding that its us golem get directly involved to rescue it from the consequences of its ill starred adventure. 2 days ago, trump was bragging of his involvement in the israeli attack. now he is frantically back pedalling, trying to deny all knowledge. russia and china are starting to get involved. – what next? another mossad false flag, 9/11? netanyahu seems to have fled to cyprus with much of the israeli air force.
thx for the info, especialy proof of shot down f35 is amazing
southfront is pretty onesided here. it don’t tell about the casualities and the destruction in israel. southfront is pro israel and so a liar and zionist.
yeah but at least they let you express youself and say such things as anuz, burgerland, gringo and many other dirty words. try that in yahoo or fox.
i tried to quote the name of a mainstream newspaper publication in this israel, and got censored twice. no bad language. straight vocalubary.
very very touchy as i’m finding out.
the jewish supremacists are keen to pump out as much information, false or otherwise, as they can, so that’s what shows up here, i suppose.
all true. and been that way all along. looks as though the iranians have been dispatching their older missiles too. big big mess , big big censorship and bigger lies wrt the beginning of this propaganda piece and assassinations
israel playing poor little victim again….its their life motto
