Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency reported that the United States and Israel carried out an airstrike on a university in Isfahan. The attack targeted the Isfahan University of Technology around midday on Saturday. The report described the strike as “severe,” but no information was provided about casualties or damage.

The incident followed an earlier attack the same day on the Iran University of Science and Technology in Tehran, which was also attributed to US and Israeli forces. The sequence of strikes marks a continuation of military actions targeting Iranian academic institutions, according to the reports cited.

No official statements or details on the extent of the damage were available at the time of reporting, and the broader implications of the attacks remain unclear.

An airstrike hit Iran’s Isfahan University of Technology on Sunday, marking the second such attack on the institution within a week. According to Akbar Salehi, deputy head of security and law enforcement for Isfahan province, several campus buildings were damaged and at least four staff members were injured. He confirmed that a similar strike had occurred the previous Thursday.

Following the latest incident, Iran issued a warning that it could target American universities in the region in retaliation for attacks on Iranian institutions. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stated that such actions would be a response to continued assaults on Iranian facilities.

The situation underscores rising regional tensions after repeated strikes on Iranian sites, with potential implications for educational and diplomatic relations between Iran and the United States.

Six people were killed in a joint US-Israeli attack on the Iranian village of Osmavandan, according to Iran’s Mehr news agency, as reported by Al Jazeera. The strike hit a residential area, killing two people on the spot and four others later at a hospital. The attack also destroyed five houses and severely damaged twenty-two more.

Iran claims that nearly 93,000 civilian structures have already been damaged in ongoing US-Israeli operations targeting civilian infrastructure. The latest strike adds to a series of incidents that have intensified tensions in the region, with repeated reports of civilian casualties and property destruction.

The report did not include official statements from the United States or Israel regarding the incident, and further details about the broader military context remain unclear.

Israel has carried out a series of strikes on multiple Iranian command centers during the ongoing conflict. According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), these attacks have prompted Iran to relocate its key security headquarters to mobile infrastructure in recent days. The IDF stated that Israeli air forces launched a powerful strike on Tehran yesterday, targeting several of these temporary command sites.

The Israeli military claimed that Iranian commanders were conducting military operations from these temporary bases at the time of the attacks. The report also mentioned related developments, including threats from Iran following university attacks and casualties in a joint U.S.-Israeli strike on Iran’s Osmavandan village.

The situation underscores heightened military tension between Israel and Iran, with both sides appearing to adjust their strategies amid ongoing hostilities.

Iranian authorities have arrested 35 people in the western province of Lorestan on charges of illegally photographing military installations and spreading false information, according to the Tasnim news agency as reported by Al Jazeera. Among those detained, 16 individuals are accused of capturing images or videos of sensitive and military sites and collaborating with what officials described as 'hostile' media outlets. The remaining 19 were detained for allegedly disseminating false information.

The Iranian government has categorized the incident as a matter of national security. The arrests come amid heightened scrutiny of information sharing and media activity within the country, particularly concerning military and security-related content.

Authorities have not released further details about the detainees or the specific nature of the alleged misinformation, leaving questions about the broader implications of the arrests for media freedom and civil activity in the region.

Tehran has issued a strong warning following reports that the Pentagon is preparing for a week-long ground operation in Iran. According to The Washington Post, US officials said the plan involves both special operations forces and conventional infantry units, though President Donald Trump has not yet given final approval. The move comes as the Iran war enters its fifth week, with additional US troops, including thousands from the 82nd Airborne Division, deployed to the Middle East.

In response, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) declared that any US troops entering Iran would return in coffins. The IRGC also urged students, teachers, and staff to stay away from institutions that could become targets. It warned that American and Israeli-linked educational institutions in West Asia might be attacked as retaliation.

The escalating exchange of threats has heightened fears of a broader regional conflict as both sides increase military readiness and rhetoric.

According to a report by The Telegraph cited by Amar Desh Online on March 29, 2026, Iran is seen to be on the path to victory in its ongoing confrontation with the Trump administration. Western intelligence agencies have long sought to weaken the Islamic Republic, but Iran’s leadership is reportedly maintaining control. The Revolutionary Guard Corps has become the dominant force in the country, and without a direct U.S. ground invasion, the regime’s collapse appears unlikely. Even leaders like Netanyahu and Trump are said to be exploring behind-the-scenes agreements rather than pursuing regime change.

The report identifies four main reasons for Iran’s perceived advantage. First, the regime’s survival itself is considered a victory. Second, Iran’s control over the strategic Strait of Hormuz has disrupted global oil supplies, forcing the Trump administration to negotiate. Third, Iran has turned the strait into a new source of revenue by charging fees to countries such as China and India for oil shipments. Finally, if Iran endures the conflict, it could use this income to rebuild its missile and nuclear capabilities, potentially emerging stronger in the coming years.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has announced the start of a new phase of its military operation, involving 86 missiles and drones. According to a statement from the IRGC’s public relations department, the operation, named “Sunday Dawn,” targeted US bases located in Iraq’s Victoria, Kuwait’s Arifjan, and Saudi Arabia’s Prince Sultan Air Base in Al Kharj.

The statement said the objective of the strikes was to damage US aerial and drone operation infrastructure and weapons stockpiles. It also claimed that the attacks extended to secret US and Israeli facilities in multiple locations, including Arad, Negev, Tel Aviv, Erbil, Bahrain—where the US Fifth Fleet is based—and Abu Dhabi’s Al Dhafra area.

The announcement follows earlier tensions involving Iran and US-linked military sites in the region, though the statement did not specify the scale of damage or casualties resulting from the attacks.

The conflict in Iran has entered its second month as US-Israeli attacks continue, resulting in a rising death toll. According to Iran’s Ministry of Health, 2,076 people have been killed so far, including 216 children. The ministry’s latest update also reports that 26,500 people have been injured, among them 1,767 children.

The health sector has suffered extensive damage, with 336 health and emergency service centers across the country affected. The ministry had previously released casualty figures in stages, indicating a rapidly deteriorating situation. The report was cited by Al Jazeera.

The continuing escalation underscores the severe humanitarian impact of the ongoing strikes, with both civilian casualties and infrastructure losses mounting across Iran.

Iran’s Parliament Speaker Bagher Ghalibaf has accused foreign adversaries of secretly planning a ground assault while publicly signaling interest in dialogue. His remarks came in a message marking one month since the start of the ongoing war, as reported by Iran’s state news agency IRNA and other local media outlets.

Ghalibaf stated that the United States is presenting a 15-point list outlining its demands, attempting to achieve through negotiation what it failed to secure in battle. He added that Iranian forces are prepared for any U.S. ground operation and ready to respond with artillery fire. Addressing the issue of surrender, Ghalibaf emphasized in Arabic that Iran’s stance is clear and that humiliation will not be accepted.

The comments come amid continuing regional tensions, with reports of heavy casualties in Iran from U.S.-Israeli attacks and diplomatic efforts by Pakistan to mediate between Washington and Tehran.

Iran’s Iran University of Science and Technology (IUST), one of the country’s leading academic institutions located in Tehran, was heavily damaged in airstrikes carried out by the United States and Israel. The incident occurred amid ongoing regional tensions, with reports confirming extensive destruction across the university campus.

Following the attack, several videos circulated on social media showing widespread devastation. The footage depicted collapsed structures, flames, and thick smoke rising from multiple university buildings, indicating severe structural damage. The reports were sourced from Al Jazeera and Reuters, which confirmed the scale of the destruction.

The extent of casualties or further details about the attack’s timing and immediate response were not specified in the available reports.

An Israeli airstrike on Sunday caused extensive damage to the Tehran office of Qatar-based news network Al Arabi TV, according to authorities cited by Middle East Eye. The Iranian Red Crescent Society reported that at least ten people were injured in the attack.

Al Arabi TV stated on social media platform X that an Israeli missile struck its office building in the Iranian capital, forcing the channel to halt live broadcasts. Footage from the scene showed shattered glass, debris inside the building, and damaged broadcasting equipment. Streets outside were littered with rubble, and nearby buildings also bore signs of damage.

The incident adds to the ongoing regional tensions, though the report did not specify further details about the broader military context or official responses from either side.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has strongly condemned an Israeli attack in Lebanon that killed three journalists. In a statement on his official Telegram channel, Araghchi described the incident as a “planned assassination,” saying it represents a deep wound for the media in the region and the world, as well as a serious warning to global conscience.

He asserted that the attack was not merely an attempt to eliminate individuals but a deliberate effort to intimidate truth-tellers and silence voices that speak out. Araghchi also claimed that Israel has a long history of targeting media professionals, which he said constitutes a clear violation of international law and conventions.

The condemnation follows reports of the journalists’ deaths in the Israeli strike in Lebanon, drawing renewed attention to the safety of media workers in conflict zones.

The United States and Israel carried out the highest number of attacks in a single day since the start of the war in Iran. According to reports, between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m. on Saturday, at least 701 strikes were launched across the country, with about 74 percent concentrated around the capital, Tehran. The attacks caused extensive damage in the city and surrounding areas.

The Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA), cited by the BBC, reported that civilian casualties have reached 1,551 within the first month of the conflict, including at least 236 children. The scale of the attacks and the rising death toll underscore the severity of the ongoing conflict.

Meanwhile, tensions in the Middle East have further escalated as Yemen’s Houthi rebels launched a second round of missile strikes targeting Israel. Observers warn that the violence could spread across the region if the situation continues to deteriorate.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that it launched missile and drone attacks on aluminium facilities in Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates. The statement, broadcast by Iran’s state media overnight on Sunday, said the targeted sites were linked to the United States military. Aluminium Bahrain reported two employees injured, while Emirates Global Aluminium in Abu Dhabi confirmed significant damage and six injuries. The IRGC described the strikes as retaliation for a US-Israeli attack on Iranian industrial infrastructure allegedly launched from Gulf bases hosting US forces.

The attacks come amid escalating regional hostilities following the outbreak of the Middle East war at the end of February. Al Jazeera reported that between 4 to 9 percent of global aluminium supply originates from the Gulf, raising concerns about potential supply disruptions. Additional drone incidents were reported across the region, including an attack at Oman’s Salalah port that injured one worker and prompted Maersk to halt operations temporarily. Oman condemned the assault and began investigating its source.

Saudi Arabia and Kuwait also reported intercepting multiple drones over their territories. Analysts warned that continued retaliatory strikes could further escalate tensions across the Gulf Cooperation Council states.
