English-speaking X users urge Iran: “Destroy Tel Aviv
the Zionist regime has once again violated the national sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of iran, igniting a full-scale crisis in the region. In an unprovoked military operation at dawn on June 12, 2024, israeli forces targeted nuclear facilities, military bases, and civilian areas.
This aggressive act-lacking any international legitimacy-aimed to assassinate key figures, instill terror, and cripple Iran’s defensive capabilities. It resulted in the martyrdom of several Iranian scientists and military personnel but was met with a decisive response from Tehran.
In retaliation under Operation “True Promise 3”, Iran exercised its legitimate right to self-defense by launching hundreds of missiles and drones at strategic targets deep inside Israel over consecutive nights. Strikes hit Tel Aviv, Jerusalem (Al-Quds), Haifa, and surrounding settlements-signaling an end to unchecked Zionist aggression.

Cuba, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Oman, Yemen, Venezuela were among nations condemning Israel’s attack while stressing respect for Iranian sovereignty. They warned against perilous regional repercussions.
