Israel-Iran war LIVE: Fresh wave of Israeli strikes hit oil depot in Tehran; Netanyahu says will carry on war 'with all our force' Israeli and U.S. forces launched strikes on an oil depot in Tehran on Saturday, marking the first reported attack on Iran’s oil infrastructure, according to the IRNA news agency. The attack, which occurred during a week of escalating tensions, targeted facilities in the Iranian capital, though Iranian officials stated the refinery’s infrastructure remained undamaged. In response, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards claimed they had struck Israel’s Haifa oil refinery, framing the attack as retaliation for the Israeli strikes. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Saturday that Israel would continue its military campaign against Iran “with all our force,” asserting that the U.S. and Israel had gained near-total control of Iranian airspace following a week of strikes. Netanyahu’s televised address emphasized a “systematic plan” to dismantle the Iranian regime and achieve broader strategic goals. Meanwhile, Iran continued its missile and drone attacks on Gulf nations hosting U.S. military bases, with reports of explosions and missile launches in the region. The conflict saw additional developments as Katyusha rockets targeted the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, though it was unclear if the attack caused damage or casualties. Israeli military officials confirmed that approximately 3,400 strikes had been conducted on Iran since the war began a week prior, with around 7,500 munitions deployed. Air defense systems in Baghdad intercepted several rockets aimed at the U.S. Embassy, with reports indicating that most were neutralized before reaching their targets.
