**Israel Reportedly Strikes Tehran, High-Ranking Iranian Officials’ Homes Targeted**
Tehran, Iran – A series of attacks reportedly targeting residential areas in Tehran, including neighborhoods such as Saadat Abad, Nobonyad, Mahallati town, and Kouhak, took place earlier today, Friday, June 12th (June 23rd according to the Iranian calendar). Reports, accompanied by images circulating online, suggest the home of Ali Shamkhani was among the properties hit. The Israeli regime has been accused of perpetrating the attacks.
The attacks prompted an emergency meeting of the Iranian cabinet and a strong statement from the Iranian government, vowing to defend its territory, people, military leaders, scientists, and citizens. “Defending this land, its skies, its children, its generals, its scientists and all its citizens is our responsibility,” the government statement read.
In response to the escalating situation, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has appointed Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour as the Commander-in-Chief of the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), promoting him to the rank of Major General. Admiral Seyed Abdulrahim Mousavi has replaced Mohammad Bagheri in the role of his successor.
Furthermore, Admiral Habibullah Sayyari was appointed as interim Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Casualties were also reported in Qasr-e Shirin, with the governor announcing one civilian death and 24 injuries as a result of the attacks.
These developments have cast doubt on the possibility of a sixth round of negotiations, according to a member of the National Security Commission.
The Ministry of Health’s crisis headquarters, led by the Minister of Health, was activated immediately following the reported attacks.
