IDF Warns Tabriz Residents: "Your Life at Risk" in New Iran Strike Zone

The directive was communicated via a Farsi-language post on X, targeting residents and workers within the specified perimeter. "The Israeli army, as it has done in recent days in the Tehran region by targeting the military infrastructure of the Iranian regime, will conduct operations in this area in the coming hours," read the warning.

This alert follows a series of recent surgical strikes conducted by the Israeli military against strategic facilities within Iran. Emphasising the immediate danger to those remaining in the vicinity, the military stated, "Dear citizens, for the sake of your safety and well-being, we kindly request that you immediately evacuate the designated area indicated on the map."

Officials further warned civilians that failure to comply with the directive would lead to life-threatening circumstances, adding, "Your presence in this area puts your life at risk."

These developments come as the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) have concluded a massive aerial offensive against Iranian military assets, striking over 150 regime locations across the western and central regions of the country, according to a report by The Jerusalem Post.

The military confirmed that the operations, which spanned 20 waves of strikes on Friday, successfully dismantled a wide array of strategic targets. These included missile sites and launchers, drone facilities, defence systems, and weapons production sites.

In a significant escalation of ground-level engagement, an IDF statement said that the IAF had eliminated several members of the Iranian Basij forces overnight as they operated recently established roadblocks in Tehran.

As noted by The Jerusalem Post, the military highlighted the specific role of the targeted personnel within Iran's internal power structure. The Basij forces, part of Iran's security apparatus, had led the Islamic regime's deadly crackdown on protesters in January 2026, the IDF noted.
