REVEALED! IDF’s Next Targets across Iranian landscape post attack on Arak & Bushehr Nuclear Reactors

Israel has expanded its air campaign to southern Iran, striking the Arak reactor to clear a path toward the fortified Fordow nuclear site. The IDF claims half of Iran’s missile launchers have been destroyed, with UAVs and jets executing rapid “stand-on” strikes. With radars and defenses south of Tehran neutralized, Israel is intensifying operations for full air dominance. Meanwhile, 14 cargo planes—reportedly from the U.S. and Germany—have delivered undisclosed military aid as tensions escalate following a cluster missile strike in Tel Aviv. #IsraelIranConflict #IDFStrikes #ArakReactor #FordowFacility #SouthernIran #IsraeliAirCampaign #IAFJets #TehranUnderWatch #MissileLaunchers #TelAvivAttack #IranNuclearSites #StandOnStrikes #BarakMagen #IsraeliNavy #UAVPatrols #IntelDrivenStrikes #AirDominance #MilitaryAid #USGermanySupport #CargoPlanes #WarSecrecy #ClusterMissile #NuclearShowdown #IDFIntel #MiddleEastTensions #IsraelDefenseForces #IranianThreat #FordowTarget #ArakCleared #NextWaveIncoming Also Read Trump Says Gabbard Was 'Wrong' About Iran; Israeli Strikes Could Be 'Very Hard To Stop' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-says-gabbard-was-wrong-about-iran-israeli-strikes-could-be-very-hard-to-stop-7778805.html?ref=DMDesc Ayatollah Khamenei's Existential Crossroads; Iran's Supreme Leader Faces Threat Like Never Before :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ayatollah-khameneis-existential-crossroads-irans-supreme-leader-faces-threat-like-never-before-7778435.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Draws Flak For Equating Son’s Postponed Wedding With War Deaths: 'Personal Cost For His Fiancée Too' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-draws-flak-for-equating-son-s-postponed-wedding-with-war-deaths-personal-cost-for-his-fi-7778281.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~

PM Modi Refuses to Silence Hasina Online: Yunus React, Bangladesh Boils Over Her Speeches from India

Bangladesh interim leader Muhammad Yunus claims he asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to block Sheikh Hasina’s online speeches — but Modi refused, saying, “It’s social media, you can’t control it.” Yunus, who now leads Bangladesh after Hasina’s ouster, made this revelation during a talk at Chatham House in London. As Hasina continues to address the Bangladeshi public from India, tensions rise, with Yunus accusing her of stirring unrest. Meanwhile, Yunus’ own anti-India remarks and outreach to China have alarmed New Delhi. Is Bangladesh heading into deeper turmoil?
