The Israeli army calls on Iranian residents to evacuate an area northeast of Tehran.
The Israeli military urged residents of a northeastern Tehran neighborhood to evacuate on Monday afternoon, anticipating bombing of "military infrastructure belonging to the Iranian regime."
"In the coming hours, the Israeli armed forces will operate in the sector (...) to target the Iranian regime's military infrastructure. Citizens of Tehran, for your safety, please evacuate [this] area of ​​the third district," Israeli army spokesman Colonel Avichay Adraee said in a Telegram message in Persian, accompanied by a map with the area in question marked in red.
Shortly after, Iranian state television and radio are "on the verge of disappearing," Israeli minister threatens.

Statements made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
This Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu affirmed that Israel is "on the path to victory" over Iran during his visit to the Tel Nof air base in the center of the country. He praised Israeli forces for their role in the offensive, stating that "many around the world" salute and admire the country's soldiers.
"We are on the path to victory, and this has been achieved thanks to our heroic pilots and our wonderful ground crew, who are also doing an exceptional job," Netanyahu said, according to a statement from his department.

"I greet you, all the citizens of Israel greet you, and I want to tell you: many around the world greet you and admire you," he added.
The president also asserted that Israel is advancing toward its two main strategic objectives: eliminating the nuclear and missile threats. "By controlling the skies above Tehran, we are achieving these goals, unlike the criminal regime in Iran that attacks our citizens and comes to kill children and women," he said.
"With God's help, we will succeed and continue until we achieve it," Netanyahu concluded.
The prime minister was accompanied by Defense Minister Israel Katz, who emphasized that the government's confidence in the Air Force was decisive in authorizing the attack.

"Now we see what you're leading in the skies above Tehran, and we know we were right. All of Israel trusts you and says: thank you and keep going," he said.
Israel began bombing Iran early Friday morning, highlighting the advances in the Islamic Republic's nuclear program and the threat posed to the country by its ballistic missile production.
