Iran reportedly strikes Mossad Headquarters, building catches fire

Iran has reportedly struck the Mossad headquarters in the city of Herzliya, near Tel Aviv.

Visuals emerging from the scene showed a signboard in Hebrew near the building, translated as “Welcome to Mossad Headquarters” in English. The building was seen engulfed in flames following the strike.

In response to ongoing Israeli attacks, Iran launched a fresh wave of missile strikes on Israel on Tuesday morning, triggering air raid sirens across various parts of the country.

Loud explosions were reported in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv as Israeli air defense systems were activated. Emergency services remain on the scene in several affected areas of central Israel.

Meanwhile, Israeli bombardment of the Iranian capital, Tehran, has continued. Explosions and heavy air defense fire were reported throughout the night. Iranian state television confirmed that three of its employees were killed in an Israeli military strike on its headquarters on Monday.

In a televised interview, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that Israel had inflicted severe damage on Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs but emphasized that the military "needs more time" to complete its objectives.

The Israeli military also claimed that Major General Ali Shadmani, the newly appointed commander of the IRGC’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, was killed in an airstrike on Tehran last night. Shadmani was considered one of Iran’s most senior military officials and a close aide to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

According to Israeli sources, Shadmani was directly overseeing Iran’s war strategy against Israel at the time of his reported death.

Following the latest Iranian strikes, Israeli emergency services said five people were slightly injured when a missile struck a bus parking area in central Israel. No additional casualties have been reported so far.
