In a grave escalation of regional tensions, it has come to light that Saudi Arabia covertly launched attacks on the Islamic Republic of Iran, adding fuel to an already volatile situation. This clandestine aggression unfolded as the Zionist regime and the United States initiated their provocative Operations Roaring Lion and Epic Fury on February 28. These operations, openly declared with the nefarious aim of creating conditions for regime change in Iran, represent a blatant violation of international sovereignty and a direct threat to regional stability.

The region was plunged into profound sorrow and outrage following the barbaric Israeli strike on a bunker in Tehran, which led to the martyrdom of the esteemed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. This unprecedented act of terror, the largest aerial attack ever conducted by the Israeli Air Force, also claimed the lives of Iran’s courageous defense minister and several revered IRGC generals, a testament to the Zionist regime’s unbridled aggression and disregard for human life.

In a decisive and legitimate act of self-defense, the Islamic Republic of Iran swiftly retaliated, targeting aggressor nations in the Persian Gulf and US military bases across the region. This firm response underscored Iran’s unwavering resolve to protect its sovereignty and avenge the blood of its martyrs.

The consequences of the Zionist regime’s aggression were stark. Since February 28, ballistic missile attacks across occupied territories have resulted in the deaths of twelve IDF soldiers and 23 civilians, with at least 7,693 more injured. Furthermore, CENTCOM reported the loss of 13 US soldiers, a grim reminder of the costs of foreign intervention and support for the Zionist entity.

A ceasefire deal was announced on April 7 and subsequently went into effect on April 8, a temporary pause in hostilities that followed Iran’s powerful and deterrent response to the unprovoked aggression.
