Iran launched another barrage of ballistic missiles at Israel early on June 17, targeting a highly-secured area close to the central city of Tel Aviv.
Some 20 missiles were launched, according to initial Israel Defense Forces (IDF) assessments. The attack set off air raid sirens across large swaths of Israel. Later, multiple impacts were reported, including four in the area Herzliya where key intelligence facilities are located.
Videos posted to social networks confirmed that the Dayan Camp, home to the Military Intelligence School, was hit. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps from its side said that data centers belonging to the IDF and the Mossad spy agency were also targeted during the attack, a part of Operation True Promise 3.
Israel’s Magen David Adom ambulance service said that five people were lightly injured. From its side, the IDF didn’t acknowledge any casualties, although it is important to note that it usually does so after around 24 hours.
Overnight, Iran launched at least ten ballistic missiles in three separate waves. While impacts were reported, there were no losses.
In the hours leading to the last missile attack, the IDF announced the interception of several suicide drones launched from Iran.
Amid the missile and drone attacks, the IDF continued to launch strikes against targets in Iran as a part of Operation Rising Lion.
Early on June 17, Israel announced that it had killed Maj. Gen. Ali Shadmani, the new head of the Khatam-al Anbiya Central Headquarters, also known as Iran’s military emergency command.
The commander assumed the post just four days earlier, replacing Maj. Gen. Gholam Ali Rashid, who was killed on Friday in Israel’s opening strikes against Iran.
The IDF said that Shadmani was the de facto most senior military commander in the Islamic Republic, the “war chief of staff,” and was considered the closest remaining military figure to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
Shadmani “commanded both the [Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps] and the Iranian Armed Forces” amid the conflict, according to the military, which said in a statement that, under Shadmani’s command, the Khatam-al Anbiya Central Headquarters “was responsible for managing combat operations and approving Iran’s attack plans.”
“In his various roles, he had a direct influence on Iran’s offensive plans targeting the State of Israel,” the military added.
Overnight, Iranian media reported intense strikes on the capital, Tehran, as well as on the outskirts of the central city of Natanz, where a key uranium enrichment plant is located. Video footage released by the IDF over the last 24 hours showed the destruction of more ballistic missile launchers, Shahed drone launchers, a MIM-23 Hawk medium-range air defense battery and decommissioned F-14 fighter jets.
In total, more than 260 people have been killed in Iran since the start of the Israeli attack, with more than 1,400 others wounded. From its side, Israel has so far reported 24 deaths and more than 500 wounded.
The confrontation appears to be still far from being over. In fact, the events of the last four days may be just the first phase of a wider war. The U.S. appears to be reading its forces to join the attack on Iran, possibly to overthrow the current Islamic government.

as usual the israhellis would say “most of the missiles got intercepted and the rest fell in open fields” i guess israhell is nothing but open fields
also they continue the ukrainian road map: change ” we killed all russian generals for we killed all iranian generals”, ghost pilot rule the sky” for iaf rule the sky, ” russia dont have tanks and missile” for iran dont have missile and air defense….
do not throw stones from a glass house…..israel does not have strategic depth. iran has the zagros mountains and underground labyrinthes
their strategic depth is involving the us & nato directly. but they squandered all good will by the population since 9/11. americans are more aware of their modus operandi than before 9/11. another false flag is much riskier now as many people will see it clear eyed and it could backfire and create a real anti-zionist movement in the us.
that’s not strategic depth, that’s cowardice. it’s like the bully in school that would provoke you and then hide behind the teacher
not saying you’re wrong. but if the teacher stands up for the bully: that is still strategy. however dishonest and irresponsible.
other teachers and the principal is needed by iran to get up off their ass and stop the bully and teacher they hide behind.
was the iran paper tiger after all? was the israelis surprise attack really so powerful that it took out all the air defence? irans missiles are going to go through of israelis air defence, so mayby it is weakened now after hundres of missiles and drones? but does iran really have enough missiles to do really concrete harm? time will tell.
well israel has crack down on imagery and photos, total media blackout in the zionist state. so much winning they do not want to show it
they launch air to ground missile from irak airspace, they use harop drones…people in iran dont see any white trace in the sky of fighterjets
the zio regime has banned jooz and even joo tourists from bugging out of the country. hotel california. airlines have been told they can’t take jooz out when ben gurion re opens. otherwise it’s a frantic stampede to get out, like east germany in 1989. even so, joo “boat people” are getting out by sea to cyprus on anything that will float. poor cyprus.
no one can fathom how they were taken by surprise when all media was reporting they were about to be attacked. why their top commanders weren’t in bunkers makes no sense. iran intelligence agencies as well. they didn’t notice an increase in activity or the planes taking off? numerous generals and scientists assassinated, but where’s irans intelligence agencies to return the serve?
same with the syria debacle, certain things make no logical sense. 200,000 syrian arab army with artillery and air power advantage surrender to 30,000 know terrorists? over two years in and russia is still capturing villages in donbass area of ukraine? what’s really going on?
the jewish supremacist organized crime enclave rules the digital surveillance lines of communication the way the british navy ruled the sea lanes. 7000 british sailors negating 1 million troops.
the israeli are preventing their citizens to leave the country (even those with american passports). i don’t think they would do that if their citizens were believing they were winning. israeli planes do not enter iran airspace anymore. they fire standoff weapons they don’t have an infinit reserve of. their only chance is conceding or involving the us.
israel is now little ukraine.
kiev by the sea
“america is a paper tiger”, that’s what mao said. he also said that “power is in the silo of a hypersonic missile” (or something like that, quoting from memory, you know). mao was a wise one and so was his wife, the leader of the cultural revolution jiang qing (this comment will be banned in dengist china).
comunist dinasaur with 2 neurons brain
rule by plutocrats is so great, isn’t it, shitcock?
mao was a good war time leader, not a good peace time leader. deng was a good peace time leader. deng was who built china up to its modern form. mao saved china from japanese fascism. but mao carried too much ideological baggage. deng was a pragmatist
deng sold the country to the bankers which is why it is a totalitarian techno feudal state.
iran has tens of thousands of missiles, they make them like cigars
iran has only been using missiles from 2 decades ago they still haven’t used any advanced missiles yet
obviously trump wants to replace the iranian government with zionist puppets like himself . trumps nuclear threat claim is very similar to iraq where wmd-s were claimed but did not exist. and so americans waste their future on another war for zionism
dump another $10 trillion of toilet paper $ down the sewer.
these zionists will not get away with this.
start censure? what are you affraid liberal oligarchs on the kremlin?
“ala mossad” means “(on) the mossad”, right? i don’t speak any hebrew or arabic but what else?
i was watching the bombings tonight at some yt channel but these seem fresh daytime new bombings, right? i’m guessing that iran is going non-stop until nothing can fly or be weaponized against them from the ailing racist colony of “israel”.
what a retarded jesus , you must be brazilian for sure
lol. maju comes from “madju”, what means “pagan” in arabic. it’s an epitet of the dragon god sugaar (fireflame or he-snake in basque).
katz had a total meltdown. he wants to nuke iran. iran gave israel a taste of gazafication for the first time ever. the gods make angry those they wish to destroy. if israel plans on living on welfare handouts and paychecks for the next 5 years from the bankrupt west, i think they may need bigger brains and bigger hats to think of something else
it mean allah landed on mossad
i’m missing a verb and a particle in that phrase. do people really believe in allah or god even without any scientific evidence or rather against all we know? gods do nothing, people do.
it’s over for the mullahs.
all the shlomos are bugging out to cyprus in anything that will float. any old tub will do. nuttyyahoo has banned jooz from leaving by air. all the mossad goons just got smoked.
mossad is like hamas….they will go underground. so much for israelis crying about hamas underground tunnels.
🫵=🤡 😁😁😁 hey shlomo. why aren’t you on a ship to cyprus? you are to cheap to pay for a ticket?😁😁😁
lazy shitcock. this is the last ditch, hail mary for the jewish supremacists before their us elephant hits its knees.
why iran is saying the name of the replace irgc commander after they get martyr . iran has to learn to keep secret of thier replacement of any commander. are they fool to say openly . .
because the jewish supremacists, masters of digital surveillance, couldn’t figure it out?
just like iran announced they had secret israeli documents on hidden facilities days before israelis “blitzkrieg” that everyone knew was coming.
a fool of a nation only has fools as leaders . but the chosen-ite mind set will claim they did not start it all . the victim card . they will cry out , why us ? why again ? but they will never find fault in themselves
oy vey! it’s anudder shoah! it’s anti shmemitism!
the moscow dwarf acts exactly like yeltsin when nato attacked his brothers in yugoslavia.
he feigns equidistance (hiding the fact that he signed a mutual aid treaty) and calls for “dialogue,” a euphemism for surrender.
