Tensions between Israel and Iran have escalated sharply following a wave of missile exchanges, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowing to continue military operations “as long as necessary” to neutralise Iran’s nuclear and missile capabilities.

The Israeli airstrikes reportedly targeted key military and nuclear infrastructure in Iran, killing several senior commanders, according to Iranian state media. In response, Iran launched a series of retaliatory missiles, some of which were intercepted with U.S. assistance, while others struck Tel Aviv, injuring at least 34 people, Israeli emergency services confirmed.

Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, accused Israel of initiating the conflict, stating, “The Zionist regime will not remain unscathed from the consequences of its crime,” and promising that Iran’s response would not be “half-measured.” He added that Iran would “inflict heavy blows” on Israel. Iran’s Fars news agency quoted military officials as saying, “This confrontation will not end with last night’s limited actions… this action will be very painful and regrettable for the aggressors.”

In a direct address to Iranian citizens posted on social media, Netanyahu described the ongoing assault as “one of the largest military operations in history – Operation Dawn of the Lions.” He claimed the campaign aims to “prevent the Islamic regime’s nuclear and ballistic missile threats,” while also expressing hope that it would “pave the way for you to achieve your freedom.”

Iranian state TV has reported that 60 civilians, including 20 children, were killed in an Israeli strike on a housing complex in Tehran. In turn, Iran has warned other countries that any support for Israel or interference in Tehran’s operations could result in attacks on their regional bases or naval assets.

      • True, but of a limited yield.
        Two weeks before JFK was murdered / assassinated by the CIA, Mossad with the help of the US Secret Service, Kennedy said that Israel would NEVER receive any nuclear weapon or device.
        He also was going to shut-down the J3wi$h-owned and controlled Rothschild private bank known as ‘The Federal Reserve Bank’ and return control of America’s money back to the U.S. Treasury.
        He also stated that he would NOT commit any troops to Vietnam.
        Kennedy knew what the J3w$ were like from his time spent growing-up and then campaigning in New England…
        Unfortunately, Trump still hasn’t learned, and probably never will until there’s a great white flash over Washington DC (District of Criminals)…

  1. This news item from DTNZ contains contradictions. One counter-example will suffice but here are two:

    Israelis are hiding in shelters while Iranians are out on the streets. Idiots (Trump and Israel) expected regime change In Iran but previous opponents of Iranian leadership are now openly supporting their leaders. https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/514368/Israelis-in-shelters-Iranians-in-the-streets

    Three F-35 planes downed with two Israeli pilots captured (the third was killed) while there is a high success rate of Iranian bombardment despite defences provided by USA, UK, France, and NATO. https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/514337/Third-F-35-fighter-jet-downed-in-Iranian-territory-two-Israeli

    • Where’s the contradiction? Iran may not have the shelters Israel have, they planned for this, after all.

      As for Israeli planes being shot down. Again, Russia has provided Iran with SU series air defence. Considered by most the best in the world.

      Now to Iran’s missiles. They are some of the best too, again, no doubt helped by the Russian’s, whose missiles are ahead of everyone else.

      Suffice to say, your lack of knowledge is the issue here.

      • I would suspect that Iran also has a nuke has already been procured either from Russia or the black market.
        The immediate goal is to exhaust the Israeli air defences (Iron Dome running out of ammo, for instance..) before launching the Great White Flash(s) so that they arrive at their target(s).
        After the Nakbas, war crimes, genocide, property theft and Holodomor that the J3w$ have imposed on the Palestinians for almost 80 years, the Great White Flash is over-due.

        And…the J3w$ / Israelis brought it on themselves!!!
        J3wi$h Americans in Israel went to Israel for the express purpose of self-exile from perceived ‘anti semitism’ and are now entrapped in their overseas chosen home, but one has to ask the question;
        How many homocidal J3wi$h Americans went to Israel to deliberately kill Palestinians???
        700,000 American J3w$ are in Israel, and their safety was never going to be guaranteed by the US State Department, even though that Department has been run by J3w$. So,
        Those American J3w$ living there gives the U.S. the excuse to go in and attack in the Middle East with the excuse of ‘protecting Americans’ (J3w$…!) thus expanding the war.
        None of that will matter when the nukes fly…!

      • No real investigative journalism from DTNZ here – they are just as moronic as other mainstream media.

        Failure to understand unipolarity vs multipolarity

        Failure to understand the USA’s and the west’s determination to preserve unipolarity by using Israel to attack and subvert the future multipolar world order. That’s why USA kept repeatedly shifting the goalposts on recent and previous nuclear talks with Iran – the USA never wanted any agreement with Iran but instead wanted to neutralize Iran. Iran’s alleged nuclear threat was yet another red herring and non-existent weapon of mass destruction. The unipolar west+USA needed to dismantle Iran”s fortification of the multipolar world order in order to sustain unipolarity.

        • DTZT is a press review. Its role is not to do ” investigative” journalism but to publish what very often is not published and censured in msm.
          And i will add that most readers are very thankfull to DTNZ( in a troubled time when propaganda and censure has become the norm) , to be able to comment freely on articles and exchange informations without censure.

  2. So this has been in planning for over a year
    Iran lulled into a false sense of security over a possible diplomatic solution
    Just like Trump knew nothing about the Russian air field attacks on strategic bombers
    Uni Party
    Different sign over the door
    Business as usual

  3. I wonder why the people of israhell do not revolt against Satanyahu who left them in their shithole as targets in a barrel while fleeing like the weasel he is to Greece?

  4. Guess murdering innocent people, men, women and children, was not enough for the Israeli government. Now launching unprovoked, murderous attacks, against a whole peaceful nation. Its a shame this lot don’t find their why in front of the ICC, with the US administration, by their side.

  5. I’m starting to really love all the insane Jew haters’ comments here now, instead of getting worked up about them. Reading this literally insane garbage is like comedy gold!

    Thanks for the laughs. Israehell. J3w$. Isis Ra El. And of course, Rothchild! But nobody has mentioned the Elders of Zion yet. Come on guys, you can do better than this! 🤣😃🤣

    • So people who hate war crimes, crimes against humanity and unprovoked war are insane? And you find it amusing? I don’t really need to say more here, do I?

    • Take your blinkers off. Ever heard of the Balfour declaration? Start there on your awakening…….or are you one of them? If so feel free to pop over and defend the “country” you so dearly love, satanic flag and all.

    • You are a real pityfull individual.
      Victim as usual of your own self.
      Go and cry ” anti- seeeemiiiiitisssm”, if you like, but the world have seen what your kin is up to. Killing defenseless women and children and causing famine traps to facilitate it. Even the nazi had more humanity

      You could read also ” 200 years together” by Alexander Soljenitsyne.
      He is a Nobel price winner.
      And what he notes, has been going on for centuries. Should be compulsory reading at school

      And this boek is only about research based on archived documentations . So objective.

  6. It’s amazing how the unprovoked attack on Israeli concert goers on Oct 7 2023 continues to fly under the radar? 1000 Hamas stormed into southern Israel and went on a killing spree, killing 1200 men women and children and abducting 250 . It was the deadliest massacre since the Jewish holocaust. How for years the Iranian regime has chanted death to America and death to Israel while building an atomic bomb. The drivel I read from the ignorant on this web page is beyond belief.

    • No one is saying they love Irans rulers, we don’t condone their regime. But seriously WAKE UP. Read about the Balfour declaration, the Nakbar, the Holomor, the Bolshevik revolution and the Protocols of the elders of Zion and then come back and talk to us. Or are you just one of those types who likes to plonk yourself in front of the goggle box at 6 o’clock and be fed one sided sound bite propaganda? I bet you read the newspaper too. 😂😂😂

      If you love Israel so much run along and go there to support what they are doing. Nothing stopping you is there? Did you ever wonder how they could target the exact apartment in Iran where their target resided but seemingly were too dumb to stop 1000 (as you say) people on hang gliders? Oh the cognitive dissonance. Are you familiar with what Jussie Smollet did? Yeah crazy eh, but it happens……now have a think and so some research about that satanic flag while you’re at it.

      Thanks for the laugh though. Seriously 🙄

    • Yeah Rob old opal, just how long has Israel been oppressing the Palestinians and stealing their land? Guess that flew under your radar. BTW in casde you had not noticed Iran is not Palestine. Fun geographic fact!

  7. Iran is the same as Ukraine…just another proxy in a much bigger picture that most fail to see. The real war that is coming will be US/EU against China/Russia…when that really kicks off then we have got problems.
