Israeli airstrikes on Iranian territory continued into Friday, striking key military and nuclear infrastructure sites, including ballistic missile facilities and leadership elements of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

According to reports, the strikes resulted in the deaths of multiple top Iranian military and nuclear officials, including IRGC commander Hossein Salami and other senior members of Iran’s defense leadership.

The Israeli operation, described by regional analysts as a decisive blow to Iran’s military capabilities, was reportedly not intended as a limited warning, but rather as a strategic strike aimed at neutralizing significant portions of Iran’s command-and-control and nuclear development infrastructure.

Reports indicated that the Israeli operation had been highly coordinated and caught Iran by surprise.

Iranian air defenses reportedly failed to mount an effective response, and early indications suggest that Israel’s targeting operations were carried out with precision across multiple high-value locations.

In the aftermath of the initial strikes, speculation circulated over whether the United States was informed of the operation or had approved it.

Some political commentators questioned whether Israel had acted unilaterally.

President Trump addressed the situation in a statement posted to his social media platform Friday.

“Iran cannot have a nuclear bomb, and we are hoping to get back to the negotiating table. We will see. There are several people in leadership that will not be coming back,” Trump said.

Trump’s statement appeared to confirm his prior awareness of the operation and his continued position that Iran’s nuclear ambitions must be stopped.

The comment was relayed on Fox News by anchor Bret Baier, who noted he had spoken directly with the president.

The strikes come amid heightened regional tensions and follow a series of provocations attributed to Iranian-backed militias targeting U.S. and allied interests in the Middle East.

Israeli officials have not officially commented on the full scope of the mission, though multiple reports indicate the targets included research centers, weapons depots, and IRGC leadership compounds.

As of Friday afternoon, Iranian state media has confirmed casualties among high-ranking IRGC members, though they have not released an official death toll.

Western intelligence sources have indicated that several key nuclear scientists were also among those killed.
