Emergency sirens blared in Israel just before 3:00 a.m. local time, warning citizens to prepare for possible retaliation. Ben Gurion Airport was closed, and the school day was canceled.

Israel reportedly struck the nuclear facilities of its sworn enemy in an attempt to prevent the hardline Islamic regime from developing nuclear weapons that could be used to attack the Jewish state.

The attack comes after the US had tried to restrain Israel from taking action while it attempted to broker a nuclear peace deal with Iran, but the regime in Tehran would not comply with negotiation efforts.

In addition to the attack on its nuclear facilities, Iranian state television said Gen. Hossein Salami, the head of Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, was believed to have died in the attack. The report added that one other top Guard official, as well as two nuclear scientists, were also feared dead.

The attack reportedly set the headquarters of Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard ablaze. Multiple sites in the capital had been hit, and Netanyahu said the military had targeted both nuclear and military sites as well as officials leading Iran’s nuclear program and its ballistic missile arsenal.

Israel released a video showing Iranian leaders calling for their destruction, arguing this attack was essential to protect their right to exist. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
