The Israeli military on Sunday reported attacks on Tehran and other targets aimed at Iranian infrastructure and power structures. Iran's Fars news agency, which is linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), reported missiles striking a residential area to the south of Tehran.

The discovery was made in an ancient shipwreck in the Dor Lagoon near the Carmel Coast, where archaeologists recovered nine pieces of unprocessed iron known as “blooms. ” Researchers from the University of Haifa said Wednesday that an underwater excavation off Israel’s northern Mediterranean coast uncovered what they described as the earliest known cargo of raw iron transported by ship, dating back around 2,600 years, Xinhua reported.

Attacks have continued, as Israel has announced its intention to control swathes of south Lebanon.
