Israeli forces launched a bombing attack on Iran on Saturday, with explosions reported across Tehran. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared a special and permanent state of emergency throughout Israel, characterizing the strikes as preemptive. The attack occurred during active peace negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, mediated by Oman. Hours before the Israeli strikes, Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi reported that Iran had made several concessions to the U.S. and indicated a peace deal was within reach. This represents the second Israeli bombing of Iran in recent months, following a similar strike in June that preceded a scheduled meeting between U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Iran's foreign minister.
