BREAKING: Israel Strikes IRGC In Iran - Tel Aviv Under Attack - Trump Green Lights Attack

Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are on this beautiful planet.We come to you guys with some breaking news on 2C TV from the Middle East as an escalation.is being witnessed in both Iran and Israel as the Israeli defense forces have launched the major strikes on the IRGC positions in Iran and the Islamists from Iran have also launched a fresh wave of attacks in Israel.We also have some situation in Saudi Arabia and in Jordan as well.We do have our live feeds from both Tel Aviv and Beirut.We're going to give you guys the latest update.

It is currently six almost 6 a .m.in London.Of course, it's 1 a .m.Eastern Time.

If you are watching this live, and it's 8 .35 a .m.in Iran and 8 .05 in Israel.And of course, over the last hour or so, we've been busy, over the last two hours or so, we've been busy with our 2CTV team to prepare this last -minute breaking news.Let's go to the situation.Obviously, the latest live update we had for you guys was probably around six hours ago.

around six hours ago on Tuesday TV which was about the IRGC launching attacks on Israel.Now following that we had a bit of a deception tactic by the Americans and the Israelis.President Trump And Prime Minister Netanyahu carried out the usual dance, the usual routine, which was President Trump has told Israel, do not retaliate.And Israel has said, yes, of course, President Trump, we are not going to retaliate.And the whole world keeps falling for the same trap.But of course, the Israelis have launched and they did this in coordination with the US military, the American military.

give the green light. Let'sLet's go to the first video we have from actually the initial launch of the Israeli fighter jets that went over Iraq towards Iran, targeting the capital in Tehran, but also Isfahan and other cities.So the fighter jets started going towards Iran.You can see that at the top.

And then we started getting the updates of explosions in Iran.

The initial reports of the strikes across Iran, over 20 targets, positions have been targeted so far.Esfahan was the first that we received the update from, a massive fire.There are some rumors on social media in terms of senior figures getting targeted inside the IRGC but we do not have any confirmation from the Islamic Republic state media.I am also in touch with obviously our personal contacts and sources including my own father who is in Tehran and the current priority for the Iranians in Tehran, at least, is panic buying, going to the shops and getting resources just in case, obviously, if things escalate.We then received this statement from the Israeli Defense Forces saying that the initial report, a short while ago, the Israeli Air Force struck military targets belonging to the Iranian terror regime in western and central Iran.details to follow.

Now we see the difference between the IRGC hitting Israel or the Arab countries andthe IDF and the Americans hitting Iran is clear.The Islamists hit civilian areas.The Americans and the Israelis hit The military sites and the IRGC sites are obviously there's a whole different situation.That's why obviously the civilians in Iran This morning are happy and are celebrating because they know that they are safe and they know that the Islamic occupiers are Getting hit.Let's go to the next video from Iran.

This is again a warehouse a drone production site belonging to the IRGC in Isfahan.Yeah, so also At the same time, there is a bit of a breaking news coming out again from, I think it's Kermanshah.Oh, Saudi Arabia again.All right.So we're going to get that because the sirens have been sounded in Saudi Arabia about an hour ago.I think there seems to be a bit of a situation in that country.

But the fighter jets, the Israeli Air Force fighter jets conducted more strikes this time in the capital, Tehran.The Mehrabad International Airport to the west of the capital was targeted again, although they are saying that there was a site just next to the airport.So we can't really confirm whether the airport itself was actually hit, because most of it has already been destroyed anyway during the 40 day lockdown.war that we recently had, but something has been targeted again around Mehrabad in the western part of the capital, Kermanshah.I'm going to show you on the map in a second exactly where the strikes have been happening.so far but mainly what I've shown you so far in terms of the images and the videos.

where they're coming from.But this is from Kermanshah, which is in the western part of Iran.A lot of the positions in Kermanshah was the ballistic missile launchers that the IRGC had.And they have been launching in close to the Iraqi border, the Iranian Iraqi border.And of course, the Israeli intelligence managed to identify the location of these missile launchers and they have been getting hit now let me just quickly go on the on our interactive map to show you where we started getting the initial strike so of course the capital let's zoom in a little bit i don't know that that's too much the capital in tehran has been hit esfahan in the center of iran also tabriz to the northwest and kermanshah And we are also now getting updates from other cities.But these are the ones that I've shown you so far.

There is a it seems to be a bit of a yeah.OK, we have the next video quickly.This the first few minutes, the first probably 15 minutes, the Israelis managed to hit at least 10 targets overall.So far, 20 positions have been destroyed by the IDF.Let's go to the next one.OK, so I think we are just waiting for a statement from the Israeli Defense Forces.

We have a couple of reactions here.Thanks for getting out of bed.Show some love people.Thank you, Shannon.Yeah, I kind of woke up at, well, I went to sleep at 2 a .m.

and woke up at 4 a .m.No, I woke up at 3 .30 a .m.So I had a bit of an hour and a half sleep, essentially.Ivan says this will shut the keyboard generals up.

I know that everybody was an expert about six hours ago.They keep thinking what you see and hear in geopolitics publicly, like a statement, is what it is they take it face value when for example the the white house and jerusalem basically say yeah president trump has told the israelis don't retaliate and the israelis have said yes of course sir everybody believes it every single time obviously that was deception tactics and the israelis did retaliate a green lit by the americans they coordinated with the u .s military there are so many reasons the americans had to do this And we've explained this so many times over the last few days and a few weeks, including the fact that it has to be perceived as the fault of the IRGC.So the Americans say, well, we didn't do anything.What's going on?And also the Islamic regime in Iran, following that so -called phone call between Netanyahu and Trump, they started to open up their airspace and that basically backfired massively because they thought that the retaliation is not happening.

Quickly going to the al -Zamir.We have a photo from the moment of the attacks that happened from inside the Situation Room.The Israeli Defense Forces Chief al -Zamir with the other senior IDF stakeholders obviously coordinating the strikes happening in Iran this morning from their obviously secured location.I think we have the next image from the central part of Iran.This massive, huge smoke rising is in Isfahan.More IRGC production sites and also military positions have been getting hit across the country.

We are getting more updates, but following this, we started getting the initial response did not actually come from the Islamic Republic.So over the last few minutes, we have had fresh round of ballistic missiles from Iran being launched.But about two hours ago, an hour ago, when the Israeli strike started, the initial response came from the Houthis.Well, the Houthis woke up early.The Houthis in Yemen, the proxies of the IRGC in Yemen, the initial sirens that were triggered in central Israel, but also in Tel Aviv, the Houthis launched the ballistic missiles.Unfortunately, for the Islamists, every single one failed.

So nothing happened, but it's the Houthis.What are you expecting?But there is a footage, a video we have from one of the passenger planes landing in Tel Aviv.The moment the sirens went off because of the Houthis launching, you're going to have to obviously still take them seriously to kind of make them feel better that, yeah, oh, we are so scared of you, Houthis.Just a quick heads up, sirens will go off.Let's go to this footage of the commercial plane.

Imagine the luck of these guys.They're like, we just landed in Israel.Oh no, the sirens are going off.It's just the Houthis, it's fine.So somebody says, I'm less concerned with the Houthis than I am with the Blowfish.The Houthis and the Blowfish.

Anyway, so these guys were stuck on the plane for a while until they were cleared to leave.Now, somebody in the live chat, Erin, yeah, says there's still many people who believe what they hear about Trump and Bibi here in the comments, talking how Trump can't tell Israel how to defend themselves and Trump is a coward.They must not be watching.They must now watch.Considering that President Trump coordinated with the Israelis to do this attack, how many times do you have to fall for the same trap?It's just stupid.

People are so silly.Anyway, the IRGC positions continue to get hammered by the Israeli Defense Forces across the country.We have the next video.

The massive.

Don't know what they're hitting there, but they seem to be a lot of the underground or cave bunkers are located in the mountains, as well as some of the carriers that they've been using.in there.There's a lot of their production sites and storage that they basically decided to hide inside mountains.This is why this war is not a straightforward conflict because the IRGC do not fight like normal people.They have all the sites, the underground missile cities inside mountains or whatever they have in tunnels.They keep hiding.

It's a whack -a -mole game.So that's why this has been getting hit again.We have a quick statement from the Israeli military, the IDF saying, the IDF has identified the launch of a missile from Yemen towards Israeli territory.Aerial defense systems are operating to intercept the threat.That was the Houthi launch.The public is requested to follow the home front commands defensive guidelines.

Of course, that has now been cleared.But then we started getting some updates from Saudi Arabia.Sirens triggered in Saudi Arabia.The civil defense said that early warning has been issued in Al -Khaj government to warn of a danger.Apparently, there are reports of at least two explosions near the Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi.That is this statement.

that civil defense has released saying remain calm.and follow official instructions.Immediately proceed to the nearest safe place inside a building or an interior room away from windows and stay there until the danger has passed.Do not leave your home or building until the danger has passed.Stay away from open areas, windows and glass and do not stand on balconies or roofs.If you are outdoors, enter the nearest building or take shelter behind

a solid barrier.Avoid crowds or going to dangerous areas and refrain from taking photos.If you receive the warning message while driving, pull over to the side of the road, away from bridges and high -rise buildings.If you notice any danger, call the emergency number in the regions of Makkah, Madinah, Riyadh and the eastern province and of course the rest of the kingdom.Follow the instructions.So we are waiting for more information.

Obviously, we do know that some of the missiles from Iran were launched and obviously towards Saudi.It should have gone mostly towards over Iraq and Syria.There was also the launch from the Houthis from Yemen that could go up.Again, it should technically go through Egypt, but we don't know exactly what's going on.But the Saudi Arabia obviously had to be on standby.You can also see the live result.

Brent.Obviously, it's it is now Monday.We are waiting for the markets to react.It's 97 31 Brent oil.Anyway, let's quickly go.We have the next image from Jerusalem and the ads following the failed attack failed attempt by the Houthis to attack Israel.

We are now we have now just had ballistic missiles being launched from Iran again.And this is the first image from Jerusalem, but this is just outside the Jerusalem air defense activity interceptions happening as the IRGC were launching on Israel.We do have the first video from the IRGC attacks that just happened again.This is not the last night one.This is just the ones that's happening.Interestingly enough, the one ballistic missile that has actually hit the ground, there has been a

impact.It is in fact in the so -called Palestinian territories just near East Jerusalem in the so -called West Bank, Judea and Samaria.Watch this.So it seems like the only target that the IRGC have managed to successfully hit is their so -called beloved Palestine and not the Israeli territory.So not going too well so far for the regime in Iran.So embarrassing once again.

But OK, and let's have a look at this.Thank you, Richard.So God bless you and your father.Cheers from Arizona.Thank you so much.We have another one saying much love from Seattle.

I assure you, we are not all insane leftists out here.I love your journalistic integrity and reporting.Oh, I know.There's still a lot of good people in the state of Washington.Let's have a look at the latest image.I think we've just, where is the, okay.

Yeah, yeah, we have the image now.So this is the one.ballistic missile from Iran that has hit the ground, but in the so -called Palestinian territory in the West Bank.This is the image.This is a bit of a whoopsie, but it's a huge, huge explosion that has occurred.It seems to be mostly in an open area.

I'm not really sure exactly what's there, but we will.This is not the first time that the Islamic Republic has hit the so -called Palestinians.Last year, two years ago, during the 2024 back and forth strikes that the IRGC and Israel had, the IRGC managed to somehow kill one Palestinian.A ballistic missile, the debris fell.And I don't know, for some stupid reason, that guy was just walking around in a quiet, empty street.Everybody was basically running away.

And they were just walking around and the debris came and killed him.There's so many problems with that whole story.One is the fact that the IRGC don't know how to aim.Secondly, why are you walking around when everybody's going into shelter?So they did manage to kill one Arab Palestinian.So let's go.

We have another statement, I think.Yes, the Israeli Defense Forces have a statement following the attacks from Iran saying a short while ago, the IDF identified missiles launched from Iran towards the territory of the state of Israel.Defense systems are operating to intercept the threat.In the past few minutes, the Home Front Command has sent a precautionary directive directly to mobile phones in the relevant areas.The public is asked to act responsibly and to follow the instructions.They save lives.

Upon receiving an alert, the public is instructed to enter a protected space and remain there until further notice.Leaving a protected space is permitted only after receiving explicit instructions.There's something else that's happening now.The public is requested to continue acting in accordance with the Home Front guidelines.guidelines.I think the IDF has something else for us.

But there is also the confirmation that Hog Island has been hit by the Israeli Defense Forces, but massive explosion.OK, I think we have.Yeah, I'm just going to show you on the map where we have just had Hog Island, which is down here.getting hit by the Israeli fighter jets flying around the area.This is just to the northwestern parts of the Persian Gulf.And of course, Kharg Island is a crucial, crucial island and position for the Islamic Republic and their oil exports.

Obviously, they're not really able to sell anything these days, but something has been hit.They may have obviously hit some more defense systems and the IRGC sites on the island to weaken the defense of the regime.But we will get some sort of details about the damages that has been caused at some points.Now we can confirm, this is major, that the Israeli Air Force have just struck the Karun petrochemical company in Bandar al -Mahshar.The Islamic Republic state media have now confirmed this.We are getting some images and videos from this attack.

Obviously, this petrochemical company is very important for the IRGC military.Apparently, it's been destroyed.So we're going to go to that quickly.I think we have the first video coming up.But the Prime Minister of Israel in the next two hours, two and a half hours, he has now been confirmed that he will be holding a security cabinet in Israel at 11am.So of course, more developments to be expected as the IRGC are now hitting back at Israel.

And let's double check.We have the interceptions.One second.But it's the interceptions of ballistic missiles launched from Iran in southern Israel.Let's quickly go to that moment.And yeah, we have it.

There we go.Right.There is a missile launches from Malad in Iran a few minutes ago.OK, so again, so far, the missile attacks from Iran have failed just like the ones we had six hours ago.So far, they obviously they've been celebrating, thinking they are winning, but all they are doing is just waste their ballistic missiles and failing.So if they want to waste their missiles, let them waste their missiles.

Stop trying to stop them.Anyway, we do have the first video from the petrochemical facility in Bandar al -Mahshar that has now been hit by the Israelis.Let's quickly go to the first video from there.There we go.And I think there's a next one coming up as well.That's that.

So wait, no, this OK, this this footage that we've got, the one you're just seeing now, this is in Jordan.Jordan has been hit.This might this may be a debris because the the Jordanians have been helping by intercepting the missiles that's launched from Iran before they reach Israel.They are intercepting, but there is one that's just hit the ground, but I think it's just the debris.So it's probably not.It's not a direct impact, but we will get more information on that.

Let's have a look at some more reaction.Phoenix says this is a messy ceasefire.Yeah, it's still largely peaceful, guys.Someone says Goldie is still sleeping.2C never has a bad hair day.I didn't have time to do anything.

So this this is completely messed up.An hour and a half sleep.That's all I needed to be fresh.I'm not fresh straight off this.I'm going back to sleep.Another two hour nap.

I'll be back out by that time.The IRGC will be launching more missiles.So we'll be ready for all that.Ethan says, if they were winning, their bots in here wouldn't be showing their Trump derangement syndrome so hard.That's true.That's true.

Somebody just said, Michael says, Trump boots on the ground.End this BS now.It's not Call of Duty.Let me just show you, as a reminder, the size of the country.This is Iran.It's not a small country.

Firstly, where do you want to put the boots on the ground?Which part?Secondly, you can't take the capital.You're dealing with the IRGC, not Hitler or Saddam.They don't care if you take the capital.They're just going to go into the countryside and the mountains.

Secondly, Iran is not a flat country, so you got a lot of mountains, you got a lot of caves, a lot of bunkers, a lot of different climates.They are going to be hiding.You're going to have to play whack -a -mole for about 35 years in order to wipe them out.If you want to do ground invasion, you can't do that.The only way you could do that is destroy the regime from within and then allow and help the Iranian people to be used as boots on the ground, basically to go and take over their institutions and finish the job.You can't just go in.

It's not like taking over Athens.It's not an easy situation, you can't just put boots on the ground in Iran and somehow win the war.Anyway, okay, there is a bit of an update coming out now.More attacks in Kermanshah.This is confusing.This was supposed to be a limited strike by Israel, but it's still going on.

Oh, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps have become creative.So we have a statement from the IRGC saying, minutes ago, fighters from the Aerospace Force of the Revolutionary Guard began Operation Nest under the slogan, Ohaydar de Valiant.Really?A tribute to the martyrs of the 12 -Day War by targeting important centers in the strategic air bases in Nevatim Air Base and Tal Nuva Air Base in Israel.All combat and operational units of the Revolutionary Guard are fully ready to carry out large -scale operations on Israel.So the reason they are creative is that clearly the IRGC watch 2CTV.

Hello to all the IRGC terrorists because I did criticize them six hours ago.I said they need to stop repeating the same name for their operations.In 2024, they started Operation True Promise.And then a few months later, they launched Operation True Promise2. And then during the 12 -day war, they said Operation True Promise3. During the 40 -day war that we just had, Operation True Promise

4. And then last night, they said, we are going to launch Operation True Promise5. It is just that there are more movies than Rocky at this point.There are more operations than Rocky movies.But apparently they've now renamed it, clearly after watching TCTV, they have renamed it Operation Nash, but under the slogan or Haydar the valiant.This is just terrible.I know you guys want to be original, but you could just call it Operation Cardboard.

that would be fun or operation one leg operation gay or taller so many options for you guys operation Tucker Carlson why not okay and he says thanks for getting up early to bring us the news yep I had my instincts.I just woke up randomly.I was like, I got to check the news and I checked my phone and the whole team is freaking out.Damn, the crazy Islamic regime are doing what they do, attacking civilians.Yeah, crazy, crazy people.Anyway, let's double check Haydar the Valiant.

Oh, dear God.Oh, Haydar, Haydar, your Islamist army is losing again.Mosh Cohen from Israel says it's Funny how both us and the Muppets, both us and the Muppets celebrated their fireworks yesterday.Who's us?Thank you, cardboard leader.We appreciate your desire to help us out.

Amazing times.Anyway, so the fascinating thing about this is that we are not going to get any information.They just, okay, they just hit a desert.The IRGC just launched the missile and hit the Judean desert.What is happening with these guys?Hang on.

Let's just double check this.Yeah, they did.That is impressive.So they hit an open space and I'm pretty sure that's in the Palestinian territory.So they did.All right.

So let me just show you on the map.The reason this is fascinating.is the exact location.So this is Iran.And then you got Iraq.You got Syria.

They're going to go down here to Jordan.Right.And then you got Israel.So officially speaking, this is the state of Israel.Right.Officially, like from here.

Right.All that is Israel.The east of Jerusalem.You've got the so -called Palestinian territory.Right.Judea and Samaria.

Between the Dead Sea, which is right there in the middle, the blue section.and Jerusalem.There's this desert, right?Judean desert.The IRGC missiles hit here before even reaching the state of Israel.What are you doing?

Right.So they are running out of energy.Fascinating stuff by the IRGC.Not really sure who is in charge of these launches, but they're not doing too well today.Bunch of interns.We have an image, guys.

We have an image.Oh, no, this is so bad.It's a direct impact.We have an image from the Judean Desert and it's it's not a good morning.It is not good for the IRGC This looks like a scene from Star Wars, but not in a good way.I think not even in a good way Let me just put this on for you guys to see Wait, this is what's happened in the so -called Palestinian Territory this is the level of success that the Islamic regime in Iran are having today.

They hate literally nothing They hit the ground Desert lives matter, guys.All right.John says, I stand with Israel.I'm Israel.Hi.Good.

IRGC is throwing a temper tantrum, kicking and screaming with no direction.Yep.You felt a trauma in the force to see you rock.Yeah.Something woke me up.Right.

Sorry.Did you say Operation Nat?No, Operation Nasr.Operation Nat.No.Operation Nasr.

Which obviously means it's supposed to mean victory in Arabic But this that was the victory that missile that launched that that hit the desert.That's that's their victory.Not bad Anyway, we are going to be waiting for more updates from the Israeli Defense Forces.So far, every single missile has failed from both the Houthis in Yemen and the IRGC in Iran.More targets in Iran have been getting hit, including in Kermanshah.We will eventually find out in terms of the assessment of damages in Iran, in terms of who has been targeted, what military sites, what production sites.

Some of them have already been confirmed, as I reported, but more information will come out in the next few hours.But we expect the IRGC to continue to hit Israel.Thank you so much for watching.I'm Maya Tusi and we are the media.
