Iran has completed all necessary domestic preparedness measures to sustain its ongoing military campaign against "Israel", according to a statement by the Secretariat of Iran's Supreme National Security Council released on Saturday.
"Domestic preparedness issues have also been reviewed, and the necessary measures have been taken," the state-run IRIB broadcaster quoted the secretariat as saying.
The announcement followed a high-level meeting of Iran's security council on June 13, during which officials reviewed the evolving situation and discussed potential retaliatory actions in response to any future acts of aggression by "Israel".
During the session, the council reportedly approved plans to continue Iran's military operations, signaling Tehran's commitment to respond forcefully to any further attacks on its territory.
This latest move underscores Tehran's strategic approach to counter the ongoing Israeli aggression and reinforces Iran's readiness to escalate its military response if provoked.
Iran resumes its defense
Iran has launched an estimated seven missile salvos targeting "Israel" in retaliation for its aggression on numerous Iranian regions and sensitive military and nuclear sites.
At dawn, Iran launched a fresh wave of missiles targeting Tel Aviv and vast areas across northern "Israel" amid a state of high alert in occupied territories, Israeli media reported during he early hours of Saturday.
The Israeli occupation then acknowledged the deaths of two settlers and injuries of 40 others in the bombardment of Rishon LeZion in central "Israel", as reports relay concerns for casualties stuck beneath the rubble. Israeli media additionally reported that around 10 firefighting and rescue teams are operating in the area.
Israeli media further emphasized that the destruction in the central district has been unprecedented, with larger devastation inflicted in Iran's latest retaliation.
The casualties have risen to three killed and over 170 injured across "Israel", some of whom are in critical condition, as per Israeli army reports.
More videos emerge showing the damage left by an #Iranian missile, which impacted the Rishon LeZion area near Tel Aviv.
