Iranian and Israeli forces are striking each other as the conflict continues into the fifth day. IRNA shared unconfirmed reports which suggest the Iron Dome failed at key moments. It claimed the system was possibly hacked, and some Israeli missiles may have changed course and hit Israeli targets. The claim has not been verified.
Some videos also showed Iranian missiles getting through Israeli air defence easily and striking without much resistance. These were shared widely by eyewitnesses on social media.
Earlier on Monday, Israel’s National Cyber Directorate confirmed a cyberattack. Civilians got fake emergency alerts, telling them not to use public bomb shelters. This added more fear and confusion in cities already on edge.
These events come after Israeli airstrikes on June 13 hit residential parts of Tehran and other cities in Iran. The strikes killed civilians and also senior Iranian military officers. In response, Iran’s leaders promised revenge and warned of more attacks.
U.S. President Donald Trump made a statement urging Iranian citizens to leave Tehran. He said this was because Iran had refused a deal to limit nuclear weapons. His warning came just before more attacks started.
The White House said Trump would leave the G7 summit in Canada one day early due to the conflict in the Middle East.
There are still no official confirmations of the Iron Dome being hacked, and Israeli officials have not commented on the footage. But Iranian media and social networks continue to circulate the claims, raising questions about the strength of Israel’s defences in cyber warfare.
