US-Israel Iran War Live Updates

US Defence Secretary Hegseth has announced that the US military will unleash a massive barrage of strikes against Iran today, surpassing the highest volume of attacks since the conflict began. According to Hegseth, this escalation will be followed by an even more intense onslaught tomorrow, leaving Iran with a critical decision to make.

US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth is currently holding a press conference to discuss the US military’s efforts to recover a downed airman, a mission that, he noted, resulted in no American casualties.

In a recent statement, President Trump highlighted the unprecedented scale of US military operations in Iran, citing over 10,000 combat sorties flown by American forces in the past 37 days. This remarkable figure, he emphasized, is a testament to the unyielding resolve of the US armed forces. Meanwhile, the downing of a US F-15 fighter jet last week marked a sobering milestone, marking the first manned aircraft to be shot down by enemy forces during the entire operation.

The US government is actively pursuing the individual responsible for revealing to the media that a second airman remained stranded in Iran following the rescue of the first pilot. According to Trump, the premature disclosure of this information caught Iran off guard, significantly complicating the US rescue operation. The President has stated that US authorities will hold the media outlet accountable for the leak, potentially taking action against the company unless it cooperates in identifying the source. In a stern warning, Trump emphasized the government’s determination to track down the whistleblower, declaring, “We’re going to leave no stone unturned in our pursuit of the leaker, and we’re prepared to take decisive action to protect national security.”

US President Donald Trump disclosed that the second rescue operation in Iran was backed by a substantial fleet of 155 American aircraft.

In a social media statement, Israel’s prime minister hailed the strike on a petrochemical facility linked to the South Pars gasfield as a pivotal move to dismantle the financial underpinnings of the IRGC. The Israeli leader emphasized that the assault is part of a broader campaign to dismantle key infrastructure, targeting not only facilities but also high-ranking officials and militant operatives.

Live from the scene, President Trump has initiated his address to the nation, providing updates on the ongoing situation with Iran. We are currently providing real-time coverage of this developing story.

President Trump has praised the daring operation that successfully extracted American pilots from Iran as a landmark achievement.
In a statement to the press, Trump revealed that he had authorized the US military to take all necessary measures to safely repatriate the courageous airmen.
The operation involved a substantial deployment of 21 US military aircraft, according to the President.

In a recent statement, President Trump expressed confidence in the US’s military campaign against Iran, suggesting that a decisive victory could be achieved in a single evening. According to Trump, the entire nation could potentially be neutralized within a 24-hour period, with the possibility of that outcome occurring as soon as the following night.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in Iran has issued a stern warning, stating that it will unleash a significant counterattack in response to the alleged assassination of its intelligence chief, Major General Majid Khademi. According to the IRGC, Khademi was murdered in a coordinated operation involving the United States and Israel earlier today.

The IRGC emphasized that the perpetrators of this crime should be aware that a substantial retaliatory strike is being prepared under the banner of Operation ‘Crushing Revenge’ by the IRGC Intelligence Organisation. This warning was conveyed through a statement released by Iran’s Fars news agency.
