On 13 June 2025, the [[zionist entity]] '''launched a series of air strikes''' on the [[Islamic Republic of Iran]], with the aim of sabotaging the Iranian nuclear program, decapitating their military structure, and terrorizing the civilian population. The attacks were dubbed ''Operation Nation of Lions'', alternatively translated as ''Operation Rising Lion.''

In retaliation, Iran launched its own ''Operation True Promise 3.''

As a result of the attacks, flights where suspended at Tehran's Imam Khomeini International Airport, while the airspace over the entity had been nearly entirely cleared.

American officials were informed in advance of the strikes, according to [[Benjamin Netanyahu]], stating "I leave the American position to the Americans. We updated them ahead of time. They knew about the attack. What will they do now? I leave that to President (Donald) Trump. He makes his decisions independently"<ref>{{Web citation|author=Reuters|newspaper=Reuters|title=Israel's Netanyahu says Washington knew about Iran attack plans|date=2025-06-13|url=https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israels-netanyahu-says-washington-knew-about-iran-attack-plans-2025-06-13/|archive-url=https://archive.is/20250613162226/https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israels-netanyahu-says-washington-knew-about-iran-attack-plans-2025-06-13/|archive-date=2025-06-13}}</ref> In a video message later that day.

On 13 June 2025, the [[zionist entity]] '''launched a series of air strikes''' on the [[Islamic Republic of Iran|Iranian]] capital of Tehran and other locations. The attacks were dubbed ''Operation Nation of Lions'', alternatively translated as ''Operation Rising Lion'', with the entity claiming them to have been preemptive strike against the Iranian nuclear program. Iranian media however described the attacks as having targeted residential buildings.

As a result of the attacks, flights where suspended at Tehran's Imam Khomeini International Airport, while the airspace over the entity had been nearly entirely cleared.

American officials were informed in advance of the strikes, according to [[Benjamin Netanyahu]], stating "I leave the American position to the Americans. We updated them ahead of time. They knew about the attack. What will they do now? I leave that to President (Donald) Trump. He makes his decisions independently"<ref>{{Web citation|author=Reuters|newspaper=Reuters|title=Israel's Netanyahu says Washington knew about Iran attack plans|date=2025-06-13|url=https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israels-netanyahu-says-washington-knew-about-iran-attack-plans-2025-06-13/|archive-url=https://archive.is/20250613162226/https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israels-netanyahu-says-washington-knew-about-iran-attack-plans-2025-06-13/|archive-date=2025-06-13}}</ref> In a video message later that day.
