Israel Launches New Airstrikes on Iran, Closes Embassies Worldwide
Israel carried out extensive airstrikes against Iran from late on the 12th to the early hours of the 13th, targeting Iranian military leaders, nuclear facilities, and nuclear scientists. On the afternoon of the 13th, Israel initiated a new round of airstrikes on cities such as Tabriz and Shiraz.
Amid rising tensions, Israel announced the closure of its embassies worldwide, suspending consular services and urging citizens to remain vigilant, avoiding any display of Jewish or Israeli symbols in public. The exact duration of the embassy closures has not been specified.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian remarked in a recent televised address that Iran will not remain silent against Israel's 'shameless attack' and warned of a 'strong response' that would make enemies 'regret their foolish actions,' calling on Iranians to unite in support of the government.
