The press service of Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced on Friday that the Iranian government has convened an emergency meeting in response to the Israeli strikes.

"During the meeting, the situation in the country was discussed; it was stated that all executive authorities were ready to provide basic needs [of the population], fuel, medicines, and other necessities, and necessary planning was carried out," the statement published on Friday said.

"Israel" launched several attacks on residential areas, and missile and nuclear facilities in Iran earlier today, killing 78 people and injuring 329 in Tehran alone.

According to a report by The Wall Street Journal on Friday, citing a senior Israeli official, "Israel" has developed a 14-day military operation targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, missile arsenal, and military leadership. 

The operation is reportedly far from over, and its duration matches analysts’ predictions that a single wave of strikes would not be enough to significantly weaken Iran’s nuclear program, as "Israel’s" broader strategy involves simultaneous attacks on facilities, leadership, and missiles to restrict Tehran’s ability to retaliate. According to WSJ, "Israel" covertly brought explosive drones into Iran ahead of the strikes.

'Israel' launches massive aggression on Iran

The first wave of attacks was carried out at dawn Friday, when "Israel" targeted residential buildings, nuclear facilities, and military infrastructure across Iran.

In an official statement, the Israeli military said it carried out a “precise, preemptive strike” in Iran, “with the goal of damaging Iran’s nuclear program."

Later on Friday, "Israel" launched a second wave of attacks, targeting multiple provinces across the country.

According to Iranian state media, one of the primary targets was the Natanz nuclear facility in Isfahan province, a critical component of Iran's nuclear program that has been repeatedly targeted in past Israeli sabotage efforts.

In the northwest, a fire erupted at Tabriz Airport in East Azerbaijan Province after it was hit by an Israeli strike, with online footage showing smoke and flames engulfing the area alongside the caption "Tabriz Airport Now," while Iranian television also reported explosions in the surrounding vicinity.

According to Iran's Fars news agency, the Israeli strikes on residential areas in Tehran resulted in 78 fatalities and 329 injuries.
