DOUBLE STRIKES, DEEPER DANGER: ISRAELI AIR FORCE HITS MILITARY SITES NEAR TEHRAN
By Prince Agbedeyi O. D
Tehran, Iran – In a dramatic escalation of tensions in the Middle East, the Israeli Air Force has launched a coordinated military operation targeting at least six Iranian military installations on the outskirts of Tehran, including the highly fortified Parchin military complex. This strike, described by observers as Israel’s most direct and bold military move in Iran in recent memory, was first reported by The New York Times citing Iranian officials and later confirmed by multiple international outlets.
⚠️ What Happened?
Between June 13–15, 2025, Israeli jets penetrated Iranian airspace and launched precision-guided munitions on several critical sites, including:
- The Parchin complex (military explosives and missile R&D)
- Khojir missile production site
- Natanz and Fordow nuclear facilities (adjacent installations)
- IRGC command hubs and radar stations
The attack reportedly disrupted Iran’s missile-launch capability and destroyed several layers of air defense systems, including S-300 batteries.
🎯 High-Profile Casualties
According to Iranian sources, the airstrikes resulted in the deaths or critical injuries of several senior commanders:
- Mohammed Kazemi – IRGC Intelligence Chief
- Gen. Mohammad Bagheri – Chief of Staff of Iran's Armed Forces
- Gen. Hossein Salami – IRGC Commander-in-Chief
In addition, an estimated 60 to 200 civilians were reportedly killed, particularly near television facilities and residential zones that suffered shockwaves from secondary explosions.
🔁 Iran's Swift Retaliation
Within hours, Iran launched a coordinated retaliatory strike, firing long-range missiles and drones at multiple Israeli cities including Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Bat Yam. The Iron Dome intercepted most projectiles, but Iranian missiles bypassed some defenses, killing 14 civilians and injuring over 390 people.
🌐 Global Reactions & Fallout
- United States – Denied direct involvement but repositioned USS Nimitz near the Gulf and provided defensive intelligence to Israel.
- Russia, Turkey, China, and the EU – Called for immediate de-escalation and restraint from both countries.
- Oil Markets – Spiked sharply amid fears of regional warfare.
🧭 Strategic Implications
This is not a one-off skirmish but a signal of new strategy from Israel:
- Open confrontation has replaced covert sabotage.
- Iran's nuclear infrastructure has been set back, but experts fear the move could accelerate Iran’s militarization.
- There is growing talk of regime change rhetoric from Tel Aviv, with Netanyahu hinting that these strikes could destabilize Iran’s leadership.
🕊️ A Region on the Brink
This new phase in Israel–Iran tensions is no longer a shadow war. It’s now a battle of bold, direct action with global consequences. The world must ask:
- Will this trigger broader war in the Middle East?
- Will other nations be dragged into conflict?
- Can diplomacy pull the region back from the edge?
✊🏾 Global Egberi Media International’s Position
We join the international community in calling for:
- Immediate cessation of hostilities
- Independent investigation into all civilian deaths
- Resumption of nuclear and regional peace talks
The Middle East cannot afford another war. The world cannot survive another oil shock. Humanity must come first.
