Israeli-American aggression targets Tehran, security secrecy surrounds Supreme Leader's location

The Iranian capital, Tehran, witnessed a wave of intense airstrikes early Saturday morning as part of a joint Israeli-American aggression, targeting vital facilities and military sites belonging to the regime. Iranian media sources confirmed that President Masoud Pezeshkian was unharmed and in good condition, in response to Hebrew claims that alleged the targeting of all political and military leadership joints in the country.

Journalistic sources quoted security agencies in Tel Aviv as saying that the widespread attack was designed to target all elements of the Iranian regime without exception. The Israeli Army Radio clarified that the first wave of strikes focused directly on high-ranking leadership figures, and verification operations are currently underway to assess the results of these targets and their accuracy in achieving their objectives.

In a related context, field reports indicated that the targeting scope was not limited to military sites but also included sovereign ministries and headquarters belonging to the Revolutionary Guard. The raids also focused on destroying ballistic missile launch platforms and infrastructure associated with the Iranian missile program, in an attempt to undermine Tehran's deterrent capabilities.

Regarding the security movements of the supreme leadership, a state of extreme ambiguity and secrecy prevailed regarding the whereabouts of the Supreme Leader of the Iranian Revolution. While international news circulated information about his transfer to a fortified location outside the capital, Tehran, field sources confirmed the difficulty of ascertaining his exact location given the current security conditions and the strict measures surrounding his movements.

In recent days, the Supreme Leader had appeared publicly in massive public gatherings inside the Imam Khomeini Hosseiniyeh attached to his official residence in the heart of the capital. This public appearance was preceded by warnings of a potential escalation, but the pace of the recent attack imposed new security protocols that prevent the disclosure of details of the movements of the country's supreme leadership.

For its part, Israeli security and military agencies raised the alert level to the highest degree, declaring their readiness for prolonged rounds of exchange of blows that could last for several days. Military circles in Tel Aviv anticipate an imminent Iranian response, which prompted them to expand the target bank to include additional strategic facilities in the event of continued direct confrontation.

These rapid developments come amid full operational partnership between Washington and Tel Aviv, where the aggression was coordinated at high levels to ensure maximum impact. International capitals are watching with great concern the consequences of this unprecedented military escalation, which places the entire region on the brink of a comprehensive regional confrontation open to all possibilities.

We targeted all elements of the Iranian regime, and operations may extend for several days as part of a continuous exchange of blows.
