Occupied entity: New Iranian missile reflects tactical shift
Occupied al-Quds - Saba: Channel 12 correspondent Almog Boker said that one of the Iranian missiles in the recent strike was equipped with a fragmentation warhead containing 26 small sub-rockets. He added that the missile exploded at a specific altitude, and its sub-payload was released within a wide impact radius, causing extensive damage hundreds of meters away. This type of warhead is intended to disperse interception systems and increase the extent of material and human casualties, reflecting a tactical shift in the composition of the recent Iranian strikes.

Iran plans retaliatory strikes on Israeli news channels, posts evacuation warnings
Iran has issued evacuation warnings to two Israeli news channels as it prepares retaliatory strikes following an attack on its own state broadcaster. Iran's national broadcaster on Thursday said Israel's Channel 12 and Channel 14 will be targeted with missile strikes in the coming days, according to a screenshot shared by Press TV, an Iranian state-backed broadcaster. In its statement, Iran accused right-wing Channel 14 of being a 'terror network' for its support of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Channel 14 broadcasts from Tel Aviv, which has been hit by Iranian missiles in the past week. Channel 12 is headquartered in Jerusalem. The warning follows an Israeli strike on Iran's national broadcaster on Monday that forced a news anchor to flee during live coverage, as seen in shocking camera footage. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz had vowed that the 'Iranian propaganda and incitement mouthpiece is on its way to disappearing.' Video footage showed a female anchor sprinting from the studio as explosions were heard after Israeli forces bombed the headquarters of Iran's state broadcasting network. It is unclear how many employees were injured or killed in the attacks. Iranian media reported that at least one worker was killed. The Israeli Defense Forces had urged residents living near headquarters to evacuate ahead of the bombing. Missile streaks over Tel Aviv, Israel on Tuesday.

President Trump has signaled the US is still weighing whether or not to join Israel in the strikes. He said Thursday that he would decide whether or not to attack Iran 'within the next two weeks.' In an interview with Israel's public broadcaster, Netanyahu on Thursday said Israel is capable of reaching its goals targeting Iran's nuclear facilities with or without Trump. Iran's Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday warned the US that intervention would result in 'irreparable damage to them' and that 'the Iranian nation is not one to surrender.'

20-25 Iranian missiles trigger widespread air raid alerts in Israel
Iran launched a fresh wave of missiles 'a short while ago' today, Friday, towards Israel. This marks the eighth consecutive day of missile launches since the escalation between the two countries began. Air raid sirens blared across various Israeli regions. Hebrew Channel 12 reported that initial estimates indicate Iran fired between 20 and 25 missiles at Israel. Channel 12 also noted that missiles were observed striking several locations, including Haifa, Beersheba, and the Dan Envelope. Israeli media reported serious injuries as a result of the Iranian missiles. This new wave of attacks comes hours after Israeli air defense systems reportedly failed to intercept a missile launched from Iran towards the Beersheba area, which resulted in injuries. Iran's Mehr news agency stated that the Iranian missile targeted a high-precision technology, research, and cybersecurity center belonging to the 'occupation' in Beersheba, southern Israel. Concurrently with the new attack, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei posted on his Persian-language account: 'The Zionist regime has made a big mistake, and its consequences, God willing, will be miserable.' On his Arabic-language account, he stated: 'The Zionist enemy is getting its just deserts; it is receiving its punishment now.'

Video: Bird Rips Israeli Flag Off Pole. Internet Calls It "Sign From God"
New Delhi: A video of a raven pulling out an Israeli flag from what looks like a pipe atop a terrace has gone viral on social media, with people seeing it as a "sign of God" for things to come. The short clip was shared on social media platform X with the caption: "Even the birds have had enough." In the clip, the bird flies to the pole, sits on it and starts pulling out the flag with its beak. At one point, it struggles, takes a mild flight and clutches the flag before dropping it to the floor. NDTV could not independently authenticate the video. "Even the birds have had enough" — Peacemaker (@peacemaket71) June 19, 2025 The short clip was shared widely on X and sparked emotional responses amid what's been an immensely tense time in West Asia. Israeli journalist Nir Hasson jumped in to share her thoughts on the video, saying: 'God is undoubtedly hinting something to us, just not sure exactly what.' אלוהים בלי ספק רומז לנו משהו רק לא בטוח בדיוק מה. — نير حسون Nir Hasson ניר חסון (@nirhasson) April 29, 2023 Another user tweeted: "Even the bird does not recognize what you call Israel. A crow pulls the flag from the mast and throws it to the ground." Even the bird does not recognize what you call Israel ???? A crow pulls the flag from the mast and throws it to the ground.✌️???????? — waed Palestine????????????

Israel will fall, and Palestine will be free — ✌️????????✌️ Mohammed Najjar (@hamada_pal2020) May 1, 2023 "That is a sign from God," wrote another. That is a sign from God. — plainjane (@plainjane130632) June 19, 2025 The Israel-Iran conflict has entered its eighth day after Tel Aviv targeted Tehran's military and nuclear facilities and killed several high-ranking officials. Iran retaliated with missile strikes in parts of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem in what was a marked escalation between two arch-foes in decades. An Iranian missile hit the southern Israeli city of Beersheba on Thursday, according to Al Jazeera. Local officials said it was a 'direct hit.' Huge plumes of smoke were seen rising from the site. Fires broke out, and emergency services reported at least five people were injured. This was also confirmed by Israel's Channel 12. The Israeli military said it intercepted three Iranian drones over the Dead Sea Thursday night. On whether or not America would get directly involved in the war, the White House said on Thursday that US President Donald Trump would take a call in the next two weeks. Trump also said that negotiations and talks weren't off-table. Meanwhile, Russia has warned Israel against striking Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant. Maria Zakharova, the spokesperson for the Russian foreign ministry, said the Kremlin was "particularly concerned about the safety of the Bushehr nuclear power plant, which employs Russian specialists." Iran's foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, will meet European representatives from three countries for talks in Geneva, Switzerland, on Friday, according to state-run news agency IRNA. The meeting will allow "continued engagement with our greatest ally", CNN reported.

True Promise 3: Iran launches new missile wave on Israel
Shafaq News/ Iran launched a fresh wave of missile attacks on southern Israel on Thursday as part of its ongoing retaliatory campaign known as 'True Promise 3,' Iranian state television reported. According to Israeli Channel 12, one missile struck the city of Beersheba directly, causing significant damage and civilian injuries. The Israeli ambulance service said five people were wounded in the attack, while 30 others were treated for panic-related symptoms. Israel Railways announced the closure of Beersheba's main train station after it sustained damage from the strike. Emergency responders on the scene reported 'visible destruction' at one building and 'major structural damage' to another. The renewed Iranian strikes come amid rising tensions and an ongoing cycle of military escalation between Iran and Israel. Tehran's True Promise campaign is framed as a direct response to Israel's Rising Lion operation, which targeted Iranian territory, killed senior commanders, and damaged critical infrastructure. Iran's Ministry of Health reported that since the start of the Israeli military campaign, 224 people have been killed and more than 1,800 injured. On the Israeli side, the country's Ministry of Health said at least 271 people were hospitalized on Thursday morning as a result of Iranian strikes. Channel 12 reported a total of 24 fatalities, 838 injuries, and the evacuation of around 5,000 residents from affected areas since the beginning of the conflict.
