In its largest daylight assault on Tehran since the war began, Israel bombed a series of high-value regime targets in the heart of the Iranian capital, N12 News reports.
The IDF dropped more than 100 munitions in under two hours, targeting key IRGC facilities, command centers, and state institutions tied to the regime’s grip on power.
Strikes hit IRGC headquarters, state TV, and the symbolic front gate of Evin Prison, infamous for holding political dissidents.
Among the destroyed sites was Iran’s so-called “doomsday clock,” which counted down to Israel’s destruction. Israel survived. The clock didn’t.
Israel estimates that dozens, and possibly hundreds, of IRGC members were killed in the Tehran strikes. Defense Minister Katz said the IDF attacked regime targets and oppressive state institutions with unprecedented force.
The list of targets confirmed by the IDF includes:
- IRGC and internal security command centers
- Basij Headquarters, enforcing Islamic law and civilian discipline
- Alborz Corps and Thar-Allah Command Center, tasked with protecting Tehran
- General Intelligence Directorate of the internal security forces, managing surveillance and media control
The operation marked a direct attack on some of the regime’s most sensitive branches, key to its internal control and ability to suppress dissent.
