Israeli airstrikes hit Tehran as Iranian missiles target southern Israel
The war in Iran continues into its second month, with escalating tensions and mutual shelling persisting on Monday. Israeli airstrikes on Iranian cities continued, while Tehran responded by launching missiles at Israel.
The Israeli army said on Monday morning that it was striking Iranian military infrastructure across the Islamic republic's capital.
The Israeli forces are 'currently striking Iranian terror regime military infrastructure across Tehran,' it said on Telegram.
The Israeli military said its air defences were responding to 'missiles launched from Iran' on Monday.
'A short while ago, the army identified missiles launched from Iran toward the territory of the State of Israel,' the military statement said.
'Defensive systems are operating to intercept the threat,' it added, urging people to take shelter until further notice.
Also, US President Donald Trump said in an interview with the Financial Times on Sunday that he could take Iran's Kharg Island 'very easily.'
Kharg Island, located off the west coast of Iran, is a vital oil terminal for the Middle Eastern country and is being eyed by the Pentagon for ground operations, though the United States insisted it would stop short of a full-scale invasion.
When asked about the state of Iranian defense on the island Trump said 'I don't think they have any defense. We could take it very easily.'
In different statements, Trump said that Iran had agreed to allow 20 ships carrying oil through the Strait of Hormuz starting Monday morning and continuing over the next few days “out of a sign of respect.”
“I would only say that we’re doing extremely well in that negotiation but you never know with Iran because we negotiate with them and then we always have to blow them up,” Trump told reporters Sunday night board Air Force One as he flew to Washington.
Trump was asked if Iran had responded to the 15-point ceasefire plan the US has proposed and he said, they did and added: “They gave us most of the points. Why wouldn’t they?”
The US-Israel war had achieved regime change in Iran, even as he assured that he would 'make a deal' with the Iranians, Trump added.
'I think we'll make a deal with them, pretty sure...but we've had regime change,' Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One, citing the number of Iranian leaders killed in the month-long war.
'We're dealing with different people than anybody's dealt with before. It's a whole different group of people. So I would consider that regime change,' Trump said.
