00:00We are now on day 5 of Operation Rising Lion.
00:10We've struck deep, hitting Iran's nuclear, ballistic and command capabilities.
00:16The Iranian regime has spent years getting closer to a nuclear weapon.
00:21They have spent billions building a ballistic missile program.
00:25Our mission is clear, to remove the threat at its source.

00:44This mission was based on real-time and emerging intelligence.
00:49We have delivered significant blows to the Iranian regime,
00:52and as such, they have been pushed back into central Iran.
00:56They are now focusing their efforts on conducting missile fire from the area of Isfahan.
01:02We are aiming at military targets. They are attacking civilian homes.
01:07The IDF will continue to operate with precision, strength and resolve
01:12to ensure the safety of the people of Israel.

01:22we are still fighting their proxy, Hamas in Gaza,
