israel attacks iran, claims to destroy nuclear facilities, military and scientific leadership. did trump support this attack? and what do they say in the kremlin? and in russia they are already calling for a large-scale mobilization. we need to prepare in advance, at least 500,000, but in reality a million people. general alaudinov says this is the third world war. at the same time, the russian army continues

to attack in amounts. in belarus, they continue to detain those who monitored the movement of russian military equipment. this is the case of the belarusian gayun project. this is certainly the one a project that showed the real position of the belarusian people, belarusian people, not only from the cities, but also from small towns, their attitude to the war, their attitude to russia's aggression against ukraine. the opposition says that repression is intensifying. today, june 13, friday, you are watching the program evening live on the current time tv channel, my name is irina ramaliskaya, hello! so, israel, for the second time in a day , attacked iran with missiles, iranian media and the press service report this israel defense forces.

the idf claims to have destroyed dozens of iranian surface-to-surface missile systems, as well as a missile storage facility and unnamed military facilities. iran is promising a powerful response, and sirens are already sounding in northern israel. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been holding phone conversations with world leaders all day. the politician's press service reports that talks with donald trump and vladimir putin are still ahead. and at night and in the morning. israel launched a series of strikes on dozens of facilities in iran. iranian military command centers and nuclear facilities were hit, high-ranking commanders and scientists who worked on the iranian nuclear program were killed. israeli authorities have called up reservists and warned residents that the operation could be delayed. iran called the attack a declaration of war. all the details from maria yablonskaya. the attack began at night. the air force said it had

scrambled 200 fighter jets, hitting dozens of targets across the country, nuclear centers, and nuclear power plants. ballistic missiles, commanders of military units of the islamic republic, according to idf , air defense installations and radars were also destroyed during the night operation, which simplified the work of aviation. the operation will last as many days as it takes to eliminate the threat. for decades, the tyrants in tehran have openly and brazenly called for the complete destruction of israel, and they back up their rhetoric with the creation of nuclear weapons. according to magatte, iran is creating tons of uranium enriched to 60%, in recent months sharply increased the rate of production, at least by one and a half times. in recent years, iran has produced enough enriched uranium to create nine atomic bombs, nine. if iran is not stopped,

they will be able to create nuclear weapons in the very near future, possibly in a year or a few months. the key nuclear center in natanz was hit several times. this was reported by iranian television. black smoke rises above the facility, explosions are heard. the magat assured that the radiation level there is not increased. the agency also believes that the nuclear fuel enrichment facilities in fardo eisfahan, as well as the bushehr nuclear power plant , are not... tehran, the drones were hunting for high-ranking military personnel there. according to idf, the chief of the general staff of the iranian army mohammad bagheri, the commander of the joint staff of the army gholam ali rashid, and the commander of the islamic revolutionary guard corps, hassein salami, were killed during the raids. an iranian television journalist read a statement on air from ksir, in which she acknowledged the death solomi and others.

it is with deep sorrow that we report the martyrdom of a prominent commander of the revolutionary guard corps, as well as several of his guards and colleagues, in a criminal terrorist attack on friday. iran has also acknowledged the death of nuclear physicist firidun abasi, here he is in archive photos. several other scientists involved in the development of the nuclear program were also killed. iran's supreme leader, ayatallah ali khaminie, has promised retribution. his address was read out by a presenter on iranian television. the mighty hand of the armed forces of the islamic republic will not leave this unanswered. several commanders of scientists were killed in enemy attacks. their duties will be immediately taken over by their deputies and colleagues. having committed this crime, the zionist regime has doomed itself to a bitter and painful fate. israel is preparing to repel a retaliatory strike. according to the idf, iran launched more than 100 drones from its territory at israel.

according to the department, all of them were shot down. sirens were already howling in the sky over jerusalem and other cities of israel this morning air raid siren. residents of israel received a message at 3:45 a.m. local time calling on them to stay near bomb shelters. on friday , all flights were suspended in the airspace of israel, iran, iraq and jordan. many flights were urgently rerouted to safe airports. three israeli airlines sent their civilian planes, without passengers, to cyprus in europe to protect the ships from iranian strikes. israeli hospitals were ordered to immediately send emergency medical services in case of danger. patients and personnel in underground shelters. maria yablonskaya, present. us president donald trump said he knew in advance about israel's plans to strike iran. he also stressed

that the us is ready to defend its forces in the region and, if necessary, provide assistance to israel. and secretary of state marco rubio warned iran against attacks on us facilities, insisting that israel acted independently and the us did not participate in this operation. following israel's strikes on iran, world leaders held a series of telephone conversations. the french president said that he discussed the situation with donald trump, as well as with the leaders of great britain, germany, the uae and qatar. our colleague in brussels elena abramovich will tell us more about the reaction of western leaders, tell us. len, hello, ira, all the reactions. come down, i would say, to calls for de-escalation, but at the same time, many people understand the validity of the israeli attacks, the us president, for example, recalled the months of negotiations with iran, which never yielded results and insisted that just do it, that is, just do it, in the sense

of signing an agreement that you will not develop nuclear weapons, well , while the us secretary of state marcorubio in his statements is trying to distance the us from these attacks, says that the states do not participate in them. do not participate in these strikes, trump reminds that israel has american weapons, and it is better to agree peacefully. i gave iran chance after chance to conclude an agreement, i told them extremely harshly, just do it, but no matter how hard they try, no matter how close they came, they never got it. i warned them that the consequences would be far worse than anything they knew, expected, or talked about, that the united states produces the best and most deadly in... israel and iran where escalation.

the same call was made at the international monetary agency, where they called the israeli strikes on iranian nuclear facilities extremely alarming and called for maximum restraint. this development is deeply disturbing. i have repeatedly emphasized that nuclear the facilities must not be attacked under any circumstances, as this could cause harm to both people and the environment. such attacks have serious implications for nuclear safety, physical protection and the safeguards regime, as well as for regional and international peace and security. britain's kirkstarmer called on all parties to step back and reduce tensions immediately.

for the state of israel, we reaffirm that israel has the right to defend its existence and the security of its citizens. the french president issued a statement. after a series of calls to mersuzmer trump, and before calling for descalation, he condemned iran's nuclear program. france has repeatedly condemned iran's ongoing nuclear program and has taken all appropriate diplomatic measures in response. in this context, france reaffirms israel's right to self-defense and ensure its security. the head of the czech republic, jan lepavsky, in a comment to radio liberty, said that the israeli strike was justified. netanyahu ignored him.

calls to restrain ourselves. in addition, we may see the us being drawn into a real war, since iran has already promised to strike back not only at israel, but at the us. for russia, according to the analyst, the situation is a win-win in the short term, since oil prices are currently rising, but if the regime in iran falls, then russia will most likely lose an important ally in its global coalition of autocracies, iran. len, thank you very much, elena abramovich, thank you. so, well, with the reaction of the western countries, lena. helped us figure it out, and what about china? beijing, through the mouth of the representative of the ministry of foreign affairs, linzian,

declares that israel attacked iran and china is against the violation of iran's security. china is closely following the progress of israel's attack on iran and is deeply concerned about the serious consequences that these actions may entail. china is against the violation of iran's sovereignty, security and territorial integrity, and is also against. nuclear program has no military solution and can be achieved

exclusively by peaceful political and diplomatic means. the ukrainian foreign ministry issued its statement. it writes that the continuation of military actions could negatively affect international security, global financial stability, especially in the oil markets, but at the same time , the statement of the ukrainian foreign ministry recalls iran, an ally of russia, which is waging an aggressive war against ukraine, tehran. the iranian regime supports russia in its illegal war of conquest against ukraine and provides moscow with weapons to kill ukrainians. iran is the source of many problems in the middle east beyond its borders. in this context, we call on the international community to take joint and decisive action to overcome common security threats and coordinated containment of a group of aggressive regimes. iran and north korea. the head of the ukrainian ministry of foreign affairs, andriy sybiha

, even emphasized that destabilization in the middle east will affect financial markets, including the oil market, he said this at the globsic 2025 forum in prague. the event is attended by my colleague, ksenia sokolyanskaya. will the conflict in the middle east affect russia's war against ukraine? she asked this question to a member of the verkhovna rada, deputy head of the parliamentary committee on defense. iran is certainly a partner and ally of the russian federation in many respects and still transfers the weapons it has. but the volumes that russia receives from iran are incomparable with the volumes that russia receives from north korea, that is, resources, iran's resources will certainly be redirected to war with israel, and this will reduce the capabilities of the russian federation, but i do not think that this

will seriously affect the course of military actions on the territory of ukraine, it will be interesting. it will be interesting to see how russia will help iran, whether it will help iran as an ally, perhaps then some russian resources will be redistributed to the side of iran, but time will tell. sergey danilov is on the air, deputy director of the center for middle east studies. sergey, hello. good afternoon. well, iran does not have common borders with israel, how can iran respond? what are you waiting for, what kind of response. yes, there are two options, these are rocket attacks on israeli territory, the second is to strike, as they will tell their allies and those who support israel in the middle east, that is, american bases, primarily in iraq, this is a traditional place where they are already striking, as well as american bases,

which is much more important in qatar and bahrain, air force, naval base. it is also possible that if the regime feels existential threat to its existence, a naval blockade of the persian gulf may begin, which will affect saudi arabia, first of all, well, on the world trade in oil products, yeah, so if we go by the missile attacks, how many drones do they have, how many missiles. how long will they last? nobody knows now, the fact is that all day today the israeli air force has been destroying missile launchers, ballistic missile warehouses with weapons, several bases have been damaged literally in the last hour or two, so nobody knows how many remained, according to estimates

, the stock of ballistic missiles exceeded 1,000, but these are missiles of different ranges from... 300 km to medium-range missiles, there they are declared at 2,500 km, some part has already been destroyed, but quite a lot obviously still remain, and this is a great potential for uavs, like the shahed, there are no exact reports from well-known ukrainians, but this is certainly true, but if not tens of thousands, then... definitely. sergey, okay, you say, strikes on american bases in different countries, yes, missile strikes are possible, or shahed raids myself israel, blockade by sea, and can iran use some of its proxy forces? no, it can't anymore,

and this is the result of the fact that hezbollah has been destroyed, in fact, well, not completely destroyed, but... much weaker now than before 2023, there is another regime in syria, not assad's, as a result a unique situation has arisen, for the first time, well, in more than 10 years, when iran has no other instruments on the border with israel that could be used to attack the territory of this country, the houthis remain, but even the leader, for example, of the iraqi.

so maybe that's why iran, maybe that's why israel chose this moment? yes, of course, this is one of the factors, that iran has weakened, it doesn't have proxies, as they are called, with which it can influence israel, plus the situation in iran itself has changed quite a lot, which allowed masad or other structures of the israeli development community, well and... if not freely, then quite actively to act on the territory of iran itself, yeah, yeah, it all fits together into one puzzle, and so, trump first. says that means the us did not participate in any way, in any way, that yes, they knew, but did not participate in this attack. axios, citing sources,

writes that trump approved this attack. rubio, after the attack, says that the us had nothing to do with it, but could israel have carried out this strike without the approval of the united states?

yes, there was a strike on the sixty-first, so i also want to ask you about, the other day vladimir zelensky said that the us moved

20,000 anti-drone missiles to the middle east, they were supposedly intended for ukraine, they were promised to the biden administration, do i understand correctly that now these missiles will be used in the event of an attack on israel from iran and these american missiles will simply shoot them down as they approach israel. well, yes, this is obviously true, this is one of the negative consequences of the escalation of the conflict in the middle east, that we are entering into competition for the same resource, since both russia and iran use the same type of weapons, although as today has shown, there launched, by the way, the iranians said that they did not launch 100 shaheds at iran today, but everyone knows that... that something flying from iran was shot down, they did not shoot it down with these missiles in fact, but they are obviously hedging their bets, and ukraine ended up without

the type of weapons that we need so much, like these fuses for cheap missiles. sergey, do you understand where they are detonated, where these missiles are shot down? yes, of course, we understand, practically nothing reached the borders of israel, everything was shot down in the airspace with... no, none of them say that we allow it, but nevertheless it happens. what do you think will happen next?

well, the basic scenario is an exchange of blows, after all, well, i am very conservative, for me what was, will be, although it must be admitted that the israeli strike this time breaks all the boundaries, and iran should declare war, well... in theory, according to the logic of events, they are now assessing the consequences, trying to understand how many more israeli agents are running around on iranian soil, it is necessary to resume control of the troops after the assassination of most or many of the top leaders of the army and the islamic revolutionary corps, after that there will definitely be a blow with what is left, if what is left will continue to remain, because, as far as i understand, israel has decided to use this unique

window of opportunity, two weeks, when they destroyed the air defense in order to continue to finish off everything that moves, everything that can pose a danger to them, because, well , the coming days will show, but i am sure that tonight the strikes on iran will continue, tomorrow will continue, but when the iranians get together, they will certainly respond to everyone with what they have left, then we will see what happens next? there will be a fork in the road and we will definitely talk to you then, among other things. thank you very much, sergey danilov, deputy director of the center for middle east studies. thank you. well, immediately after the attack by israel, iran announced that it was withdrawing from nuclear negotiations with the united states. this was reported by iranian media. on sunday , another round of these negotiations was supposed to take place in oman. special envoy trump's steve widkow was going to meet

with iranian foreign minister abbas. arrakchi. negotiations have been underway since april. washington's position: iran must curtail its nuclear program so as not to create nuclear weapons, tehran's position: we are not going to produce nuclear weapons, our atom is peaceful. trump offers the iranian leadership to make a deal. the details of the proposal are not disclosed, but as stated in tehran, any agreement must include the lifting of sanctions. what will happen next with these negotiations? this was.

destroyed already not about something to sign the deal not destroyed, but these days the operation is still ongoing, and today it is happening in waves, they just reported that the eighth wave is underway, that is, there is a normal plan, which takes into account all the objects of the iranian nuclear infrastructure, in addition, not only nuclear, but also missile, because when the free trade agreement was signed back in 2015, then both the nuclear and missile programs were supposed to be included, but then it... was not included now in principle, when they are trying, trying to do something new, that is, to introduce something, to take a new step in interaction with the iranian nuclear program, that is, to destroy it, then at the same time, probably, they will destroy the missile program, but on the other hand, there are also individuals there, that is , in principle, they were liquidated , for example, in the last hours they reported about the liquidation of the head of the air force of the islamic revolutionary guard corps,

in addition, the chief of the general staff is there, in general, all people are tied to this, in addition , israel has been conducting a targeted capture since 2010, as if iranian, forgive me for such a word, iranian nuclear physicists who are registered in this program, and we believe that this is also a serious contribution to eliminating this program, although in principle the americans in israel are sure of one thing, that even if the program is destroyed now,

i observe the development of the iranian nuclear program, there are always figures, almost always the same, in a month or two, in a year or two iran will approach creation, but now we just see the physical volumes, that is, iran is already has accumulated, so to speak, enriched uranium for 8-10 nuclear charges, that is, it can do this quite quickly if iran makes a political decision to create a nuclear bomb. the iranians always slyly say that we have not made this decision, we will not make it, because we have a fatwa that prohibits it, but even regarding this fatwa there were big disputes in iran, because they claimed that according to this fatwa iran is allowed to produce and store nuclear weapons, but it is not allowed to use them, so 40 deputies the iranian inter-face recently addressed a letter to kayatulla khominy with a request to add there:
