Israel launched a military attack on Iran by mobilizing a large number of fighters and drones at the dawn of June 13.
They dropped bombs on military targets, major energy installations and dwelling houses in different areas including the capital city of Tehran.
A spokesman for the Iranian Ministry of Public Health announced that due to the Israeli air raids, more than 240 people were dead and some 1 270 people were carried to hospitals in 65 hours and more than 90 percent of casualties were civilians.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said that larger numbers of attacks would be carried out in the future.
The Iranian armed forces launched powerful retaliatory strikes by dint of drones and ballistic missiles.
The Iranian Islamic Revolution Guards Corps stated that they struck the Israeli army centres, air bases and munitions industry enterprises by using precision guided weapons and intelligent systems.
By June 14 since Iran started counterattack, more than 200 were reportedly dead or wounded in different parts of Israel including Tel Aviv and there were over 140 casualties on the following day.
At present, Iranian and Israeli fighters continue to take off and missile and drone attacks are getting fiercer on the capital regions and major military bases of the opponents.
According to foreign media outlets, the Israeli troops carried out a large-scale attack on Iran’s weapons production bases on June 15 and Iran struck major Israeli cities with hypersonic ballistic missiles on the early morning of June 16.
The Israeli Zionists are escalating aggressive war moves to Iran following the attacks against the Gaza Strip of Palestine, Lebanon and Syria and their reckless actions are coming under censure from the broad international community.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry issued a statement to declare that the Zionist regime’s attack constitutes a blatant act of aggression against the Islamic Republic and that Iran has the legitimate and legal right to respond to that.
In a UN Security Council meeting, the Iranian ambassador to the United Nations disclosed that the US is sharing information with Israel and giving it weapons and political assistance and that the Americans would be made pay dearly for supporting the Israeli crimes.
Many countries roundly denounced the cruel acts of aggression by Israel as a violation of the UN Charter and international law and called for taking immediate measures to check them and restore regional peace and stability.
