Several injured in strike near police HQ, Iran says

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards escalated their rhetoric Wednesday, warning Israelis to flee or remain trapped in bomb shelters under missile fire.

“Either choose gradual death in the hellish life of shelters, or save yourselves from the 24-hour missile barrage by fleeing the lands stolen by your ancestors—if you wish to live,” read a statement by the IRGC.

The statement, part of the IRGC’s twelfth communique on its ongoing campaign, announced the launch of a new wave of long-range Sejjil missile attacks.

Sejjil is a family of Iranian solid-fueled medium range ballistic missiles.

The IRGC said Israel’s air defense systems have been broken by previous strikes and described Israeli skies as now “wide open” to Iranian drones and missiles.

The recent attacks targeted Mossad, and Israeli Air Force bases, added the statement.

The Guards warned that the assault will be “sustained and impact-driven,” aiming to prevent Israelis from emerging from underground shelters.

The Islamic Republic is in its final phase, Iran’s exiled crown prince, Reza Pahlavi, told a bipartisan group of US lawmakers on Wednesday and urged support for a peaceful transition led by Iranians.

“The regime’s grip on the country is unraveling,” he said, calling the moment “a spiritual and moral reckoning.”

“The people of Iran do not hate Israel. They do not hate America,” he said. “That hatred was manufactured by a regime that used religion as a weapon.”

Pahlavi said that his movement is not seeking power, but a democratic and inclusive Iran.

“We have a roadmap for a transitional period grounded in the rule of law and national reconciliation.”

Urging Congress to back Iran’s pro-democracy movement, Pahlavi said it requires no troops or funding.

“The only way to end the endless wars is to help us put an end to the Islamic Republic,” he said.

As Israeli strikes on Iranian military and nuclear facilities continue, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi told Bloomberg the UN nuclear watchdog can no longer verify the location or security of Iran’s highly enriched uranium.

Asked if the 60% enriched stockpile remains safely at the Isfahan site, Grossi said, “To say safely, I’m not so sure.”

About 400 kg of uranium—enough for 10 nuclear warheads—had been sealed at the site before the war.

Grossi confirmed IAEA inspectors in Iran are no longer monitoring sites due to the conflict, and Tehran has provided no details on protective measures for its stockpile.

“We haven’t been informed of anything in detail,” he said. While satellite images show no movement of the material, the lack of access raises concern.

“No country in the world is enriching uranium at this level of 60%,” Grossi said, calling for an urgent return to diplomacy.

Iran has launched around 400 ballistic missiles and 1,000 drones at Israel since the conflict began on Friday, an Israeli military official told CNN.

Approximately 20 of those missiles struck civilian areas, added the official.

At least 24 people in Israel have been killed since the start of the Israeli military operation, according to the report.

initial assessments indicate the Islamic Republic fired between five and seven missiles in its latest attack on Israel, Channel 14 in Israel reported Wednesday.

Some were intercepted by air defenses while others failed and fell mid-flight, according to the report.
