Underground military installations in Pardis, near Tehran, were targeted in reported US and Israeli strikes as hostilities between Iran and Israel escalated.

The Israeli military said on Telegram it had launched a new wave of large-scale attacks targeting infrastructure in Tehran. It added that further details would be released later. No immediate official figures on casualties or damage were provided.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed it had destroyed alleged enemy positions in Iraq’s semi-autonomous Kurdistan region.

In a statement, it said the sites were being used by groups planning infiltration and attacks inside Iran. Kurdish authorities in Iraq did not immediately respond to the claim.

Meanwhile, Iranian missile fire reportedly struck central Israel, injuring at least seven people, according to Israeli media.

The missiles hit areas including Bnei Brak, east of Tel Aviv, and Rosh HaAyin. Witnesses said buildings and vehicles were damaged by missiles and shrapnel, fires broke out at multiple locations, and roads were affected.

The Israeli military confirmed that Iranian missiles had landed in central Israel and said search and rescue teams were operating at the impact sites alongside emergency services. Authorities said the nature and scale of the damage were being assessed.
