The war between the United States, Israel, and the Iranian regime dramatically escalated Saturday night after Israeli forces, coordinating with U.S. military assets, launched massive strikes targeting Iranian oil infrastructure in and around Tehran.
Israel’s public broadcaster KAN reported that the Israeli Air Force struck oil storage depots and refinery facilities in Tehran.
Israeli officials confirmed that the operation focused on fuel depots and energy infrastructure believed to support Iran’s military operations.

STRUCK: Several Fuel Storage Complexes Belonging to the IRGC in Tehran
Guided by IDF intelligence, the IAF struck these complexes, where the Iranian terrorist regime would distribute fuel to multiple military entities in Iran.
The strike significantly deepens the damage to the military infrastructure of the Iranian terrorist regime.
“We attacked several fuel depots that served the military forces of the Iranian terror regime in Tehran.” According to the statement, “The military forces of the Iranian regime use fuel tanks directly and frequently to operate military infrastructure, and with their help, the Iranian terror regime transfers fuel to various consumers, including military entities in Iran. This is a significant strike that constitutes an additional layer in deepening the damage to the military infrastructure of the Iranian terror regime. The IDF will continue to act forcefully in order to strike the regime extensively and remove threats to the State of Israel.”
Massive fires were reported at storage facilities as explosions rocked parts of Tehran late Saturday.
Social media videos show huge fires that lit up the skyline and sent thick plumes of smoke into the night sky.
Footage from Tehran shows the “Shahran” fuel facility engulfed in flames, with thick smoke billowing into the sky.
