This comes amid Israel's constant warning to Iranians to evacuate areas near all nuclear facilities in the country. The Israeli army spokesman, Avichay Adraee, released an evacuation warning that includes all weapons factories and their supporting facilities in Iran.
"For your safety, we ask you to please immediately evacuate the areas of these facilities and to not return until further notice," Israel Army's Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee wrote in Farsi in a statement on X on Sunday.
He added: "Being in the vicinity of these areas endangers your life."
The warning came following an exchange of attacks between the two countries over the weekend, during which Tel Aviv killed key ranking Iranian military leaders, including Esmail Qaani.
On the other hand, Iran also launched over 300 missiles, attacking Israel and announcing direct hits in Haifa and Tel Aviv, in addition to other areas.

'All ways lead to Rome': Street posters cause controversy in Syria
ALBAWABA - A mysterious advertisement, apparently for a restaurant opening in the Syrian city of Aleppo, has sparked fear and controversy in a country that has been experiencing security incidents, bombings, and kidnappings for months, some of them sectarian, religious, or even religious. The story began when posters were seen on public walls in the city bearing the phrase "All roads lead to Rome," without any further details revealing whether they were advertising posters. The placement of some of these posters in a neighborhood of Aleppo, mainly inhabited by Christians, sparked conflicting interpretations and concerns after two young men were spotted placing the posters on a wall in the Aziziyah neighborhood late at night. Syrian bloggers believed the posters were directed at the Christian population, posing a threat to them and urging them to leave Syria for Rome. Another group said the poster may represent an armed faction, while others called on the authorities to open an investigation into the posters. Many rumors emerged on social media following the ad shared by Syrians, before it became clear that they were advertisements for a restaurant opening in the city called "Roma."

Also Read 'Assassinate the Mind': Iran's leader slams Israeli strike goals In a post on the social media platform X, Araghchi said, "If President Trump is sincere in his desire to reach an agreement, he must put aside his disrespectful and unacceptable tone toward Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and stop harming millions of his loyal followers." Trump stated at a recent summit that new talks with Iran would be held next week, but he did not provide any details. A sixth round of US-Iran talks scheduled for Amman on June 15 was cancelled after Israeli strikes on Iranian targets two days earlier. Amid the exchange of attacks between Iran and Israel, US forces bombed key Iranian nuclear sites. In statements to Iranian state television, Araghchi confirmed for the first time that the attacks caused "significant" damage to Iran's nuclear infrastructure. © 2000 - 2025 Al Bawaba (

Trump denies reports US is weighing up to $30 bln civilian nuclear deal for Iran
Ammon News - U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday dismissed media reports that said his administration had discussed possibly helping Iran access as much as $30 billion to build a civilian-energy-producing nuclear program. CNN reported on Thursday and NBC News reported on Friday that the Trump administration in recent days had explored possible economic incentives for Iran in return for its government halting uranium enrichment. The reports cited sources. CNN cited officials as saying that several proposals were floated and were preliminary. "Who in the Fake News Media is the SleazeBag saying that 'President Trump wants to give Iran $30 Billion to build non-military Nuclear facilities.' Never heard of this ridiculous idea," Trump wrote on Truth Social late on Friday, calling the reports a "HOAX." Since April, Iran and the U.S. have held indirect talks aimed at finding a new diplomatic solution regarding Iran's nuclear program. Tehran says its program is peaceful and Washington says it wants to ensure Iran cannot build a nuclear weapon. Trump, earlier this week, announced a ceasefire between U.S. ally Israel and its regional rival Iran to halt a war that began on June 13 when Israel attacked Iran. The Israel-Iran conflict had raised alarms in a region already on edge since the start of Israel's war in Gaza in October 2023.
