'Bitter And Painful Fate': Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei Warns Israel Over 'Targeted Strikes'

IRAN, JUN 13 – Ayatollah Ali Khamenei promised harsh retaliation after Israel struck over 100 Iranian targets, killing senior military and nuclear officials, escalating regional tensions significantly.

  • On June 13, 2025, Israel conducted airstrikes against multiple nuclear and military targets across Iran, including facilities in Tehran and the Natanz uranium enrichment plant.
  • The strikes followed a June 12 UN nuclear watchdog report declaring Iran in violation of its nuclear obligations amid stalled negotiations and ongoing regional tensions.
  • Iran condemned the attacks as a declaration of war, confirming casualties among senior commanders and scientists, and vowed an unrestricted and decisive military response.
  • Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei warned Israel of severe punishment and stated Iran's armed forces will ensure Israel "won't go unpunished," while Israel claimed significant damage to the Natanz site.
  • The strikes heightened regional instability as the US denied involvement, Israel prepared for possible retaliation, and diplomatic efforts between Washington and Tehran continued.
