Wall Street Journal: Trump approves Iran strike plan, but refuses to issue final order
Note to readers. The IDF is apparently arresting its citizens that share videos now. Expect to see far fewer impact videos in Israel for that reason. Also expect to see videos you’ve already seen, as news sources recycle them.
If you are wondering why your representatives are not speaking up about America getting involved in the war, look them up here:
It's impossible to invade Iran. Few understand this
New previously unseen footage of an Iranian missile strike on Tel Aviv
This was published by CBS News and is said to be from 2 days ago. What is notable about this, is the fact that such strict media censorship prevented many videos like this from being released.
Israel has imposed a blackout policy designed to hide its losses and the destruction inflicted, especially to military sites. Despite Haaretz admitting that 30 missiles hit military bases on the first day of Iran’s retaliatory strikes, no footage or admissions of losses have emerged.

Iran FM Abbas Araghchi:
Now, the whole world must know that:
(1) Iran is merely defending itself. Even in the face of the most egregious aggression against our people, Iran has only taken reciprocal action against the Israeli regime and not against those who assist and encourage it.
Just as Netanyahu launched this war to destroy diplomacy, the world must be very vigilant regarding the increasing efforts of the weakened Israeli regime to compel others to save it and to spread the flames of this (war) to the region and beyond.
(2) Iran has practically proven what it has always publicly committed to: we have never sought nuclear weapons and will not do so. If it were otherwise, what better excuse than the current aggression of the only nuclear-armed regime in the region could we have for developing these inhumane weapons?

(3) Iran will proudly and courageously continue to exercise its right to self-defense, and we will make the aggressor regret its grave mistake and compel it to pay the price.
(4) With the exception of the illegitimate, genocidal, and occupying regime of Israel, we remain committed to diplomacy. As in the past...
