Top Iranian Military Commanders Killed in Israeli Airstrikes, Confirms IDF

By A Staff Reporter

Tel Aviv, June 13 — In a major escalation of hostilities, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have announced that three top Iranian military leaders were killed in targeted airstrikes carried out across Iran. The high-profile casualties include the Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, the Commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and the Commander of Iran’s Emergency Command.

In a statement posted on social media, the IDF declared:

“We can now confirm that the Chief of staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Commander of the IRGC and the Commander of Iran’s Emergency Command were all eliminated in the Israeli strikes across Iran by more than 200 fighter jets. These are three ruthless mass murderers with international blood on their hands. The world is a better place without them.”

The scale of the operation—reportedly involving more than 200 Israeli fighter jets—marks one of the most extensive and high-risk aerial campaigns undertaken by Israel in recent years.

Iranian authorities have yet to confirm the deaths, though unofficial sources report heavy damage to military installations and a possible blackout in central command communications.

This strike follows heightened tensions between the two countries, triggered by recent cyberattacks, proxy conflicts, and unconfirmed reports of sabotage attempts on nuclear facilities.
