Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei says airstrikes will not go unanswered.
Iran will retaliate for Israeli strikes on its territory, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei said on Friday, confirming that senior commanders were killed in the attack.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said their jets struck dozens of targets across Iran, including military installations and a nuclear enrichment facility in Natanz. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that the goal of the operation was to prevent Iran from acquiring the capability to develop nuclear weapons.
In a statement on Friday morning, Khamenei warned that Israel “should expect severe punishment.” He accused the IDF of striking residential areas but also acknowledged that “several commanders and scientists” were killed.
The General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces described the attack as “blatant aggression” and vowed a “crushing” response.
According to Iranian media, the victims include Hossein Salami, commander of Iran’s elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Deputy Chief of Army Staff Gholam Ali Rashid, and nuclear scientists Mohammad Mehdi Tehranchi and Fereydoon Abbasi.
The attack took place just days before the sixth round of nuclear talks between the United States and Iran, scheduled for Sunday in Oman. US President Donald Trump recently accused Tehran of “slow-walking” the negotiations after previous rounds failed to produce a breakthrough. On Friday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized that Washington was not involved in the Israeli strikes.
Iran has denied seeking to acquire nuclear weapons, insisting instead on its right to conduct nuclear research for civilian purposes.

And what do YOU DO?
The Wolves Defended Against the Lambs
—Hans Magnus Enzensberger—1957
should the vultures eat forget-me-nots?
what do you want the jackal to do,
cut loose from his skin, or the wolf? should
he pull his own teeth out of his head?
what upsets you so much
about commissars and popes?
why do you gape at the fraudulent TV screen
as if someone just slipped you the shaft?
and tell me who sews the ribbons
over the general’s chest? who
carves the capon up for the usurer?
who proudly dangles an iron cross
over his rumbling navel? who
rakes in the tip, the thirty pieces
of silver, the hush money? listen: there
are plenty of victims, very few thieves: who’s
the first to applaud them, who
pins on the merit badge, who’s
crazy for lies?
look in the mirror : squirming,
scared blind by the burden of truthfulness,
skipping the trouble of learning, abandoning
thought to the wolves,
a nose ring your favorite trinket,
no deception too stupid, no comfort
too cheap, every new blackmail
still seems too mild for you.
you lambs, why crows would be
nuns stacked up against you:
all of you hoodwink each other.
fraternity’s the rule
among wolves :
they travel in packs.
blessed are the thieves: you
ask them up for a rape, then
throw yourself down on the mouldy bed
of submission. moaning
you stick to your lies. you’d love
to be torn limb from limb. you
won’t change the world.
