The war that began on June 13, initiated by Israel and named "Rising Lion," has entered its 8th day, starting with retaliatory attacks by Iran, which it called "True Promise."
CYBER SECURITY CENTER DESTROYED
This morning, Iran targeted the city of Beersheba in southern Israel with numerous missiles. While the train station in the area was heavily damaged, the next target of Israeli missiles was the Israeli cyber security center.
At the moment when the Israeli army made statements saying, "We could not intercept the missiles," the cyber security center was destroyed by missiles.
CASUALTIES MOUNTING
At least 227 people, including high-ranking military officials such as Iranian Chief of General Staff Bakiri and Commander of the Revolutionary Guards Selami, have died in Israeli attacks.
