Massive Israeli Retaliation in Iran; IDF Releases Crucial Information (Video)
Tehran/Tel Aviv: In retaliation for the missile attacks launched by Iran against Israel, the joint military operation (Operation Epic Fury/Roaring Lion) conducted by Israel with the full backing of the US has intensified by mid-March. The IDF is currently ramping up its strikes, targeting strategic military bases in Iran.
Main Targets of the Attack: According to recent reports, Israel has wrought heavy destruction across three major cities:
Shiraz: Underground ballistic missile production and storage facility.
Tehran: Air defence bases and crucial weapon manufacturing plants.
Ahvaz: Ground Corps command centres of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
IDF Provides Confirmation: The IDF has officially released an 18-second video featuring satellite maps that detail the exact locations of the strikes and the resulting damage. This video was shared as part of their efforts to maintain transparency regarding the operations.

Background and New Information (Figures up to March 13):
Commencing on February 28, 2026, this military operation by Israel aims to completely dismantle Iran’s missile networks and proxy groups.
According to analysis by the IDF and the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), within a few short days leading up to the first week of March, Israel had already targeted over 400 sites.
The latest information indicates that thousands of people have been injured on both sides, alongside heavy casualties and structural damage.
The World Divided: Mixed Reactions. The global community is split into two camps on this issue:
Supporters: They argue that through this campaign, Israel has successfully and significantly degraded Iran’s retaliatory capacity (particularly its missile stockpiles).
Critics: Critics highlight that these attacks pose a massive threat to the lives of everyday civilians. Furthermore, they argue that the unresolved Palestinian conflict, which has persisted for years, is the root cause leading to such large-scale wars. This situation underscores deep geopolitical polarisation.
