Israel Says It Has Launched a New Wave of Strikes on Tehran

Israel’s military said it had launched a fresh wave of strikes on Tehran, describing the operation as part of its continuing campaign against what it called Iranian regime infrastructure in the capital. In a statement posted on Telegram, the Israel Defense Forces said the action was “an additional wave of strikes on Iranian terrorist regime infrastructure in Tehran,” signaling that the Israeli air campaign against Iran’s capital remains active.

The new strikes come amid several consecutive days of Israeli attacks on targets in Tehran and other parts of Iran. Recent reporting says Israel has focused on command centers, missile-related facilities, air defense systems, and internal security infrastructure as part of a broader effort to weaken Iran’s military and state security apparatus.

At the same time, the IDF said it had also struck targets in Beirut, expanding the latest round of operations beyond Iran. According to Israeli accounts, the strikes in Beirut’s Dahiyeh district hit an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps air force command center as well as three other command centers used by Hezbollah. Dahiyeh, in southern Beirut, is widely seen as a Hezbollah stronghold and has been repeatedly targeted in recent days as cross-border fighting between Israel and Hezbollah intensified.

Israeli and international reporting indicate that the Beirut strikes are tied to Israel’s effort to hit both Hezbollah infrastructure in Lebanon and Iranian-linked assets across the region. The widening scope of the attacks underscores how the conflict has evolved from direct Israeli strikes on Iran into a broader regional confrontation involving Tehran’s allies.

So far, there has been no full independent accounting of the damage or casualties from the latest strikes on Tehran. However, images and reports from recent attacks in the capital have shown smoke rising over urban districts, damaged buildings, and emergency crews operating in affected neighborhoods.

The renewed strikes on Tehran and Beirut suggest that Israel is maintaining simultaneous pressure on both Iran and Hezbollah, even as international concern grows that the conflict could spread further across the Middle East. With no sign of a ceasefire and military operations continuing on multiple fronts, the latest wave marks another sharp escalation in an already volatile regional war.
