General Hossein Salami – IRGC Commander.
General Amir Ali Hajizadeh – IRGC Aerospace Forces.
General Mehdi Rabani – Deputy Chief of Operations.

The Israeli military is reinforcing its forces this morning on the northern and eastern borders.
A massive mobilization of reservists has begun, and the IDF is reducing its forces in the Gaza Strip in favor of other sectors.
The main concern was primarily in the Judea and Samaria sector, where it was preparing to reinforce its forces.
Now, the assessment of the situation raises additional concerns for the two Lebanese sectors and the eastern border.
Police spokesperson:
Border Guards from all units are deployed in various locations across the country and are ready to respond firmly to any event. We will not tolerate any demonstrations of jubilation and will respond forcefully to any attempt to harm Israeli citizens.
As part of the police's preparations, it was decided yesterday to mobilize seven reserve companies and six companies of the Border Guard's volunteer reserve special forces.
Reserve fighters were deployed yesterday to Border Guard areas across the country and have been deployed in the field, operating side by side with Israel Police officers and regular Border Guard soldiers from various units.
The Israel Police force is reinforced and trained. It includes unique tactical units, alert squadrons, and volunteers. Deployed in the field, they are equipped and determined to respond quickly to each intervention site. The police strive to isolate the sites, allowing saboteurs to neutralize the threat. They also conduct rescue and rescue operations, if necessary, to protect Israeli citizens.
The Border Guards are preparing with all their forces, from Border Patrol companies to Special Operations Command fighters, tactical brigades, Mistaravim infiltration units, and the Special Operations Command, to thwart and prevent terrorist incidents, manage unrest, and protect communities through reinforcements and specific training. Our fighters are determined to do whatever is necessary on the front lines to protect citizens. Three international airports, hundreds of ballistic missiles, and the "opening of the air route" to Tehran: an overview of the airstrikes in Iran and the operation's achievements so far.
The Israeli military estimates that approximately 150 ballistic missiles have been launched at Israel so far in salvos from Iran.
During the night, the air force attacked for the first time since the start of the war. The Air Force explained that this preemptive strike was preceded by a 24-hour operation to "open the air route" to Tehran. To this end, surface-to-air missile batteries were systematically attacked, with the Air Force beginning to attack them from west to east, first in western Iran, then along the route to Tehran.
Security source: "The route to Tehran has been cut; we have eliminated almost all threats in our path through a series of strikes. Freedom of air action in Iranian skies is now very significant, but not yet complete. The Iranians still have surface-to-air missile batteries."
One of Iran's international airports was also attacked during the night of Thursday to Friday, near Tehran. Since the beginning of the operation, the Air Force has attacked three international airports: those in Tehran, Hamadan, and Tabriz.
Three nuclear facilities have been attacked so far: the major attacks at Natanz and Isfahan, where the Iranians suffered significant damage. At the Fordow nuclear power plant, "some components" were attacked, but no large-scale attack has yet taken place.
The Israeli military estimates that hundreds of ballistic missiles (surface-to-surface missiles) have been destroyed so far in Israeli strikes, significantly reducing the Iranians' ability to launch massive barrages on Israel. The Israeli military claims that the Iranians had much larger launch plans—launching several hundred ballistic missiles with each barrage—but thatThey have so far only launched barrages of several dozen missiles.
According to estimates, Iran has so far launched a total of approximately 150 ballistic missiles at Israel, all volleys combined.
We are seeing this morning, after an extremely difficult night, the damage they are capable of inflicting on us.
The Prime Minister himself indicated yesterday that there is a price to pay for this war.
We are in the midst of it.
Iranian missiles are powerful; they carry up to 1 ton of explosives.
Their speed reaches, listen carefully, between 15,000 and 17,000 km/hour.
They can fly up to 150 km above the atmosphere.
The flight time to us from Iran varies between 7 and 9 minutes...
With all this data, realize that what Israel is doing, managing to intercept the majority of them, is a technological feat.
Without air defense, there would have been hundreds of deaths last night.
But like any technology, it's not infallible, and when it gets past the defenses, it causes serious damage like last night, leveling an entire city block.
I'm not going to tell you nonsense. Standard shelters aren't designed for this type of impact.
We saw it last night in Ramat Gan, Rishon, and Tel Aviv.
Iran doesn't have an unlimited stockpile of this type of missile, and combined with the fact that Israel is attacking their launcher directly in Iran, the stockpile will quickly dwindle.
Potentially three or four tough days to get through, and things will get better afterward.
They deliberately struck populated areas to kill civilians, unlike us, who strike with precision.
This is another red line they've crossed.
Israel's response will be destructive; we'll directly attack their refinery and oil storage area, destroying their economy.
It must be very hard for Israelis to go through this with their children, hiding, running, the bangs, the anxiety.
A difficult time to get through.
We're together, we'll continue the Live Info minute by minute until victory, SDV!

The scale of launches and interceptions carried out so far at Iranian dams, and the revelation of new details about the Isfahan nuclear site that was attacked yesterday.
IDF: Iran has so far launched approximately 200 ballistic missiles toward Israeli territory. About a quarter of them (about 50) fell in accordance with policy, i.e., in open areas or locations where they caused no damage, and it was decided not to intercept them. A few missiles were not intercepted and were hit.
In other words, nearly 150 missiles were successfully intercepted (over 90% successful interception, estimated percentages).
The Israeli military is reviewing and studying the results of the missile strikes. It does not comment on reports of strikes on its bases, but clarifies that the capabilities and operational continuity of the Army and Air Force bases were not affected in any way.
Since the beginning of the operation, the Air Force has attacked approximately 150 targets and over 400 components in Iran.
The Israeli military reveals new details about the attack on the Isfahan nuclear facility and asserts that it is an important and significant site for the nuclear program. Iran has attempted to present the Isfahan site as a site for uranium enrichment for civilian and research purposes, but intelligence available to the Israeli military indicates that preparations are underway to enrich uranium to a high military level.
The intelligence branch recently identified a high level of preparation at Isfahan for the enrichment of military uranium and stated: "The activity at the site leaves no room for doubt: Iran was working to produce weapons of mass destruction there."
The site was not completely destroyed, but components were: the infrastructure for converting enriched uranium and metallic uranium, as well as laboratories and other infrastructure.
