Overview
- On June 16, six missiles targeted the entry and exit points of a western Tehran building hosting a Supreme National Security Council meeting
- President Masoud Pezeshkian and other senior officials escaped through a pre-prepared emergency hatch, with the president sustaining a minor leg wound
- The strike was modeled on a Nasrallah-style operation designed to block airflow and trap occupants during a precision air assault
- Iranian authorities have arrested more than 700 suspects and launched an espionage investigation into a suspected infiltrator who may have leaked meeting details
- The attack unfolded four days into a 12-day exchange of strikes on military and nuclear sites between Israel and Iran, which ended under a US-brokered ceasefire on June 23
