Israel’s military said it struck more than 10 Basij force posts in Tehran in recent hours. The attacks are part of its ongoing operations in Iran. Officials said the strikes aim to weaken Iran’s internal security control. At the same time, Hezbollah fired rockets towards northern Israel from Lebanon. Israel said most were intercepted and no immediate casualties were reported. In response, Israeli forces carried out airstrikes on Hezbollah launch sites in Lebanon. The army said it is “deepening operations” to protect its northern areas. The conflict continues to expand across multiple fronts in the region. (PC: X)
