Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that the Israeli military carried out strikes on the so-called ‘Israel Doomsday Clock’ located in central Tehran
The IDF’s actions were part of a broader campaign targeting Iranian regime structures, including the Basij headquarters and Evin Prison, according to Katz. Iranian state media immediately denied the report, with Mehr News Agency releasing video footage confirming the clock remained operational and intact, displaying the countdown to September 2040.
While Washington has attempted to broker a ceasefire, mutual accusations of violations persist, and both sides appear poised for further escalation. The crisis has fueled international concerns about the potential for a broader regional conflict and its impact on global security and energy markets.
