Aerial attacks between Israel and Iran continued overnight into Monday, marking a fourth day of strikes following Israel’s Friday attack.
That surprise operation hit at the heart of Iran’s nuclear program, striking key facilities and killing several nuclear scientists as well as high-ranking military leaders, according to Israeli officials, ABC reports.
The U.S. did not provide any military assistance or have any involvement in Israel’s Friday strike, a U.S. official told ABC News. President Donald Trump told ABC News on Sunday, “It’s possible we could get involved.”
The Israel Defense Forces issued a warning to residents in District 3 of Tehran to “immediately leave” ahead of planned strikes there.
“In the coming hours, the Israeli army will take action in this area to attack the Iranian regime’s military infrastructure, just as it has done in recent days around Tehran,” a post to the IDF’s Farsi-language X account read.
