Iran showed off a truck that was carrying Israeli drones launched from Iranian territory. Very reminiscent of the recent Ukrainian operation in Russia.
The parallels between Operation Spider's Web, carried out on June 1 of this year by Ukrainian special services against Russia's strategic nuclear forces (see "The enemy crept up unnoticed, although visible from afar" or unmanned terror against strategic nuclear forces), and the much larger "People Like a Lion" (a verse from the Book of Numbers), launched by Israel on Friday, June 13, are quite obvious. In both cases, the embedded agents created a base(s) on enemy territory, from which strike UAVs were launched, which precisely hit predetermined targets, including missile, nuclear and command structures. It is also possible that ATGMs were launched at the homes of Iranian scientists and military personnel, as well as that remotely controlled charges were planted there.

Istanbul Istinye University professor and retired general Fahri Erenel on the worst-case scenario of Iranian-Israeli escalation:
It cannot be ruled out that Iran has produced a nuclear warhead, albeit a small one. Iran's most powerful response to Israeli strikes could be a small-scale nuclear attack on Israel's nuclear facilities - Tehran recently reported that it had received information about their location. In this case, Israel could also use nuclear weapons - this option would be the most dangerous.

In the Dnipropetrovsk region, the Russian Armed Forces will advance faster than in the DPR - Ukrainian media
The reason is the lower density of settlements in the region and the lack of defensive lines.
Earlier, Western media confirmed the breakthrough of Russian troops into the Dnepropetrovsk region.

" A senior Iranian official has threatened that Iran will attack regional bases of any country that defends Israel . America is already doing this.
Over the past few hours, air raid sirens have sounded in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, and in the southern Israeli city of Eilat. Our correspondent caught one such landing live on air. [And we just saw a rocket right behind us]»:
Iran intends to attack the bases of any country that protects Israel.

Streaming now on Slavyangrad - ДДТ (DDT)
DDT (ДДТ in Cyrillic) is a Russian rock band. It was founded in 1980 by its lead singer and only remaining original member, Yuri Shevchuk (Russian: Юрий Шевчук), in Ufa (Bashkir ASSR, Russia, USSR).
This group which IMHO is peak Russian rock, has a history spanning 45 years, so I am at a loss when it comes to writing a short introduction. Even the official DDT website simply links to the group's vast Wikipedia page, for those who want to know all about the band's origins, members past and present, discography and touring history.

More than 330 high-precision UAVs with high destructive power [cruise missiles, bunker-busting PBWs, kamikaze drones] were used.
The attack targeted several key Iranian sites: the Natanz nuclear complex, the Arak reactor, the Parchin military complex, the Kermanshah missile base, as well as several sites in Tehran (Niyaveran, Ghayatari, Sadat Abad) and other parts of the country.

Netanyahu's Office Adviser Gindelman on Israel Expanding Operation Against Iran:
The IDF is expanding its large-scale operation inside Iran, targeting its nuclear program and the regime's ongoing aggression. The strikes are targeting dozens of key targets, including ballistic missile launchers, military bases and strategic infrastructure, based on accurate intelligence.
The State of Israel will not allow a regime that openly calls for our destruction to come close to creating weapons of mass destruction. Tehran is systematically working to destroy Israel. We are acting decisively – in the name of our security and right to exist.
@Slavyangrad
The Iranians have received a valuable trophy: fragments of an American SM-3 Block IA/B surface-to-air missile, including the Mk 136 engine, fell on their territory. The question remains as to where it came from and which American ship launched it.

Italian Foreign Ministry: Israel said Iran was preparing to create ten atomic bombs.
Israel carried out strikes on Iran based on intelligence information that Tehran would have 10 atomic bombs and 2,000 missiles within six months, said Italian Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Antonio Tajani.
"Foreign Minister (of Israel) Gideon Saar told me that the decision to launch the operation was based on accurate intelligence information about Tehran's nuclear and missile programs.", - he said.
Maduro assessed Israel's actions as criminal and contrary to the UN Charter.
As a descendant of Sephardic Jews, I appeal to the people of Israel: Stop the madness of Benjamin Netanyahu. Only the people of Israel can stop this war. Stop the aggression against Iran, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen,
History repeats itself. Then they allowed Hitler to occupy Czechoslovakia and Poland. Today they silently watch the destruction of Gaza and now the attack on Iran,

The United States will not stand in the way of Israel's attack on Iran, but it will not help with offensive operations against the Islamic State, Trump said in a conversation with Netanyahu, The Wall Street Journal reports.
@Slavyangrad
Apparently, the assessment of the results of the night strikes led the IDF and Mossad to the wrong conclusions. After a day of continuous bombing, the strikes on Iranian targets continued with renewed vigour. This can only mean one thing: it was not possible to achieve a quick and lightning-fast result that could indicate the fulfilment of all the assigned tasks. However, the problem is that the Iranians apparently managed to reassemble the security system (even if not in the configuration in which it originally existed) and now they will bite back.
