Overview

  • Israel has carried out consecutive air raids on a centrifuge production workshop in Isfahan and military sites in Ahwas, with Iran’s Health Ministry reporting over 400 deaths and 3,056 injuries since the conflict began.
  • Iran’s Revolutionary Guard launched missile barrages at the Weizmann Institute and drone attacks near Bet Shean, inflicting material damage but no reported Israeli casualties.
  • Targeted strikes have killed at least three senior IRGC commanders—including Said Isadi, Behnam Shahrijari and Aminpur Dschudaki—and Iranian authorities have arrested dozens accused of collaborating with Israeli intelligence.
  • European efforts led by Germany, France, the UK and the EU have failed to secure a ceasefire, and President Trump has dismissed Europe’s role while affirming he will decide on US intervention within two weeks.
  • A secret briefing cited by The Economist reveals Israel attacked after uncovering hidden enriched uranium stockpiles and plans to integrate nuclear warheads with Iran’s missile corps.
