A growing number of Israeli, American, and European security analysts argue that if President Donald Trump were to reach a new accommodation or partial sanctions‑relief framework with Iran, Israel would likely act independently against Iranian strategic assets.
Israel intensified operations across Iran and Lebanon, eliminating senior IRGC officials and Hezbollah terrorists behind a deadly attack.
History shows that authoritarian systems, while appearing monolithic, often mask extreme internal rot.
Since gaining aerial superiority over Iran, the Israeli and U.S. air forces have been striking ballistic missile launchers as they are loaded and prepared for attacks.
Footage shows an Israeli airstrike destroying an IRGC drone facility, after which IAF drones hunt down fleeing soldiers and eliminate them.
The IDF said the facilities were targeted while Iranian regime personnel were present and actively engaged in activities linked to attacks against Israel.
Dozens of Israeli fighter jets struck Tehran and western Iran, eliminating Revolutionary Guards soldiers in the heart of the capital.
Ali Khamenei was a global terrorism mastermind, responsible for attacks like the 1983 Beirut bombing and the 1994 AMIA bombing.
Phase two of Operation Epic Fury and Roaring Lion focused on degrading Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities, including its infrastructure, launchers, and other facilities.
The low number of launchers seriously damages Iran’s ability to launch hundreds of missiles in a single “saturation” salvo to overwhelm the Iron Dome and Arrow systems.
As fighter jets and cruise missiles targeted Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) command centers and nuclear facilities, the parallel cyber front paralyzed the regime from within.
Analysts say the scale of the operation—millions of targeted users—marks one of the largest psychological‑warfare efforts ever conducted against Iran’s armed forces.
The move mirrors Iran’s strategy in Yemen, where it backs the Houthi rebels with weapons and training.
Even after the ceasefire, mysterious deaths and explosions continue across Iran.
The group even extracted $90 million from cryptocurrency wallets linked to the Revolutionary Guards.
Iran effectively operates with two separate armed forces: the regular Iranian army and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard corps.
Shadmani had assumed his role just four days prior, replacing Maj. Gen. Gholam Ali Rashid, who was killed in the opening salvo of Operation Rising Lion on June 13.
The IDF reports that during the first hour of the strike, the three highest-ranking military officials in the Iranian regime were confirmed killed.
Since the launch of Operation Rising Lion, Israeli refueling aircraft have conducted over 600 in-air fuelings, enabling sustained fighter jet operations across Iranian airspace and ensuring continuous pressure on key military targets.
Before his predecessor’s assassination, Shadmani served as deputy commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Emergency Command and as head of the Operations Division of the Iranian General Staff.
