US Destroys IRGC targets, Vows More

IDF Continues Strikes On Tehran, Beirut
The IDF said it carried out simultaneous targeted strikes on military targets in Tehran and Beirut, including a strike on the Iranian state broadcaster.

The strike came after Israel issued evacuation orders in southern Lebanon, telling residents of dozens more villages to leave their homes as it intensified airstrikes against Hezbollah. The new warnings follow a similar round of evacuation notices issued a day earlier.
