Israeli statements described the operation as targeting infrastructure used to support military activities and said it produced massive flames, thick black smoke and reports of 'black rain' over the city.

AFP and video imagery circulated showing large fires and heavy smoke at the sites.

Israeli authorities reported strikes on roughly 30 fuel depots in Tehran.

The strikes took place amid public vows by the US and Israel to continue operations against Iran, intensifying an already volatile regional confrontation.

Iran responded to the attacks by launching missiles and drones at targets across the Middle East, including energy infrastructure in nearby Gulf states.

Tehran's military warned that it would begin targeting oil facilities across the region if strikes on its energy sites continued.

Human-rights and international observers expressed alarm, raising concerns about strikes on civilian energy sites and the wider escalation of attacks that now involve infrastructure beyond military targets.

Human-rights groups specifically criticised the strikes on civilian energy infrastructure.

Amnesty International head Agnes Callamard said Israel "should have taken all feasible precautions" and warned that apparent toxic releases and civilian harm — including impacts on children — suggested disproportionate and insufficiently mitigated damage.

U.S. officials also privately warned the strikes risked strategic backfire by targeting facilities used by ordinary Iranians, potentially bolstering support for Tehran.

The strikes and subsequent exchanges have produced diplomatic strain and wider regional consequences.

Ahram Online reported the operations have strained U.S.–Israeli ties and prompted planned visits by U.S. envoys.

Ahram Online also noted related casualties and displacement tied to the broader conflict, which has included Iranian attacks across the region.

Analysts and local officials warned of economic fallout, including a sharp rise in oil-price risk amid threats that prices could surge if energy infrastructure continues to be targeted.
