Mother and son killed in Israeli drone strike in Iran’s Kermanshah: Report

Iran’s Press TV and Fars news agency are reporting that an Iranian mother and her six-year-old son have been killed in an Israeli drone attack in the city of Hamil in the central province of Kermanshah.

Fars news reported that the attack took place on June 21, hitting a truck and a passenger car. The father and another child were also wounded in the attack and taken to hospital for treatment, the report said, citing officials in Kermanshah.

Dozens of children have been reported killed in Iran since Israel’s military operation began on June 13.



Israel promises to continue Iran attacks until ‘all goals achieved'

The Israeli army and the Israeli government have been very focused on the effects and the success of the American strikes.

At the same time, we’ve been hearing from the Israeli prime minister that Israel still hasn’t achieved all of their goals, while maintaining vagueness about what those goals actually are.

Netanyahu said that Israel will continue to bomb Iran, continue to bomb targets until all goals have been achieved.

So there is no indication – despite that success claimed by the Americans and the Israelis in these strikes on three of Iran’s nuclear sites, that the bombing will stop or that there is a path towards ending this.

Since the goal is to keep Netanyahu in power and out of prison, there is no end in sight...

Nonstop Iranian attacks causing extensive damage in Israel

Damage in Israel over the past 10 days has been extensive. Most of the damage has been in central Israel, but also in Haifa, a very strategic city that’s been pummelled repeatedly.

In one case yesterday, a missile made impact without the sirens going off. After an investigation, the Israeli army confirmed that it was, in fact, an Iranian missile, not an interceptor that misfired.

This nonstop dynamic has pushed more than 30,000 Israelis to file for compensation. Several hundred have had to seek alternative housing. Local authorities are paying a little over $4m a day to try to accommodate these emergent needs.
