Intense strikes hit infrastructure and military sites in Iran on April 7, hours before United States President Donald Trump’s ultimatum to the Islamic Republic to reopen the Strait of Hormuz is due to expire.
Israeli strikes targeted 10 “key” rail sections and bridges in Iran, according to The Times of Israel, which reported, citing an Israeli security official, that the attack was part of efforts to prevent the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps from moving weapon systems.
Ahead of the strikes, the Israeli military warned people in Iran to stay away from trains, without providing any specific locations.
The security official said that the guards had used the rail and highway bridges to move weapons and other military supplies. Israel has warned it would strike Iranian “national infrastructure” to cause economic damage to the regime.
The strikes caused casualties. Two people were killed in an attack on a rail bridge in In the central city of Kashan, according to Iranian state media, which also reported that all train services were canceled until further notice in the holy city of Mashhad in the northeast of the Islamic Republic.
Separately, a wave of U.S. strikes hit Kharg Island, Iran’s main oil exporting hub. Citing a senior American official, Axios reported that the strikes targeted military sites.
The attacks occurred hours before Trump’s ultimatum to Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz was due to expire, after which he has threatened a major escalation in strikes, including on Iran’s power plants and bridges.
Amid the strikes, Trump renewed his threats, saying that a “a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” if Iran doesn’t agree to his demands.
“I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” he wrote on Truth Social. “However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?”
Trump said that “we will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!”
Despite the strikes and threats, efforts to facilitate talks between the U.S. and Iran are still ongoing, two Pakistani sources with knowledge on the discussions told Reuters.
A last-minute agreement seems plausible. It is also possible that Trump will simply delay his deadline once again. If all efforts failed, Iran will likely strike back by targeting energy facilities across the Middle East. This would cause a serious energy crisis.

why do hezbollah and iran have to pay for this because the ass ad and the alawites were traitorous pigs in december 2024? the air line is open and israel now dares to do what it did not dare to do until december 2024.
this is a bot…
no kidding ? 😃
go back into your unit 8200 cave israeli troll. we dont buy your bs here. alawites fought for years against jewlani and erdogan who handed syria to israel on a silver platter. if as sad didnt fall there would not have been a war on iran rn. he kept the rest of the middle east safe from israeli land grab and expansionism. the unhinged kikes even want war with egypt to steal the sinai and turkey to steal alexandretta.
get a load of this: tramp and jd dance say they will end the persian civilization.
what a bunch of losers. they are so stupid they can’t lie nor bluff.
if they didn’t finish off gaza or the houthies, they won’t do it to 90+ million iranians.
on israeli tv, politician like ben givir are openly talking about using neutron bombs to genocide iranians. they want to atomize iran but without degrading their (already low) reputation. they are talking about pr damage control to perform mass killings. killing millions of people but without destroying the buildings…. these people are pure evil, molochists.
they follow their master and do what the indoctrination requires.
iran should stop being nice. wipe out the entire oil infrastructure of gulf countries instead of useless attacks on israel… from kuwait to uae!
easy targets first.
all shall be destroyed until your war lord controls it
iran destroying all energy supplies is very desirable for the your epstine class rulers. believe in your kingdom and all its propaganda
so how is the 3 day smo* against iran going? aka unprovoked and illegal trump’s war against iranian people
we have years to go on with ! expect no end
bridges can be repaired – in iranian currency surely for a lot less than the cost of those bombs that were used to destroy them.
note the shift in propaganda : ‘ we will strike the regime to let the brave people of iran decide of it’s destiny.’ to ‘we will kill you all and erase your civilization.’. hahahaha. the orange jewish golem is upset.
its’ blood pressure must be through the roof these days
trumpy and the jooz really, teally, really care about the iranian people and want to “liberate” them. part of that is bombing them back to the stone age, killing little schoolgirls, and “making their civilisation die.”
iran should send some generals to russia to help them with ukraine and attack those who support and supply weapons
germany calling
closing hormuz is the epstine cabals greatest wish. it will not open. all energy shipping will be under us control. that is all. really simple for the dumbest of propagandized minds. the war lords must rule the worlds energy and currency. china and russia stand in the way. years in the making, for all eyes to see. slave trolls will not recognize, but post for thier masters
the only thing the iranians have run out of is blow up rubber dummies. the amerikunts and jooz have bombed them all.
the jews and amerikunts have runout of ideas, i told u these subhumans only know how to lie, steal and kill. they have absolutely nothing else left
except mustering the ‘courage’ to use nukes.
one thing is obvious: every time there is a “deadline” or “negotiations” israel and/or washington ignore their own words/threats and bomb something b e f o r e their so-called deadline. which means something pretty simple… israel/washington are not dealing in good faith, they never have, their words/actions are just an excuse to attack iran, they are so eager and bloodthirsty that they cannot wait.
its taco tuesday the liar in chief don’t know what he said two hours ago
i think the irgc have taken that duplicity into full account with this supposed two week ceasefire with the u.s. from friday.
gives mbs some breathing space to see trump and kiss his arse.
candace owens: “this is a satanic administration. satanic zionists occupy the white house. trump is deeply unwell and surrounded by religious fanatics who have convinced him that he is the messiah.”
head of dept of war talks of the miracle of the third temple coming maybe he means pimple on his ass
so how is the 3-day smo “epstein fury” going? have we won yet?! yes no. cop
this real treat goes to western countries if not conquered very soon. will be waste land .
us used nuclear weapons in horizima and nagasaki,iraq,raqqa.france tested in libya and the whole nato tested in afganistan.we all military man and we know all the secret and we share information.
