On Saturday, February 28, 2026, Israel launched new airstrikes targeting Iran, including the capital Tehran and surrounding regions. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz confirmed the attacks, describing them as a “pre-planned strike” aimed at neutralizing perceived threats to the Israeli state. According to security sources, the operation involved joint participation with the United States. Iran’s Fars News Agency reported multiple missile strikes hitting University Street and Jomhuri areas in Tehran. During the attacks, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) sent a nationwide alert to its citizens, advising them to seek shelter and remain close to secure locations. The IDF stated that this was an active warning to prepare the public for the potential of missile launches toward Israel. In response to the attacks, Iran closed its airspace, and Israel also shut its airspace due to fears of counterattacks. International media outlets, including Al Jazeera, The Times of Israel, The Jerusalem Post, and The Washington Post, are closely monitoring the situation. The incident has heightened global security concerns and escalated tensions in the Middle East, adding further complexity and volatility to the region’s political landscape.
