The Zioneer reports that the US military campaign against Iran has concluded, according to an update. The earlier explosions in Tehran were caused by sonic booms from American bombers circling the city, and a ceremony marking the end of the operation took place.
Just after midnight Jerusalem time, The Zioneer reported that the US military campaign against Iran has concluded. The explosions heard in Tehran earlier in the evening were identified as sonic booms from American bombers circling the city, and a ceremony marking the end of the operation was held, according to the update. The announcement comes about an hour after the latest reports describing the strikes as ongoing and the largest since the ceasefire.
At 23:35 Jerusalem on Wednesday, the desk reported three developments: a senior US official had told N12 that the night's strikes were broader than the previous night; a US official confirmed to ABC that over 80 sites had been struck; and the strikes were described as the largest and most intense since the ceasefire and still ongoing. The thread of reports showed escalation from the initial strikes. The new update changes the narrative from ongoing to concluded, with the sonic boom explanation for the Tehran explosions.
The Zioneer has been tracking the US strikes against Iran since early June. Earlier background coverage included reports of multiple waves of strikes hitting air defenses and command centers, as well as unverified claims of a US aircraft downed and AI-generated disinformation. A Fox News report on June 28 that strikes had concluded was not reflected in subsequent events, making tonight's update the first definitive closure reported.
The specific details of the ceremony and the source of the update remain unclear. Independent confirmation from US or Iranian officials is not yet available, and it is not known whether the campaign is truly over or if further operations could resume.
