The Israel Defence Forces issued an urgent evacuation warning on Saturday morning for an industrial area located west of Tabriz in Iran, as tensions between the two countries continue to intensify. The message was shared in the Persian language on the social media platform X and was directed at residents and workers inside the specified zone. The Israeli military stated that it would soon carry out operations in the area, similar to recent actions taken against Iranian military infrastructure in the Tehran region. The statement explained that the army would begin activities in the location within the next few hours.

The warning comes after a series of recent targeted strikes carried out by Israel against key strategic facilities inside Iran. Stressing the seriousness of the situation, the military urged civilians to leave the marked zone immediately for their own safety. It cautioned that remaining in the area could expose people to significant danger. Officials further emphasized that anyone who stayed within the designated zone could face life threatening risks.

These developments follow a large scale aerial campaign carried out by the Israeli military against Iranian military positions. According to a report by The Jerusalem Post, more than 150 sites associated with the Iranian regime in western and central parts of the country were struck. The military reported that the operation included 20 waves of airstrikes on Friday, which destroyed several important targets. Among the facilities hit were missile launch sites, drone related infrastructure, defense systems, and weapons manufacturing locations.

The Israeli Air Force reportedly eliminated several members of Iran’s Basij forces overnight while they were operating newly established checkpoints in Tehran. The report also noted that the Basij is part of Iran’s internal security structure and had previously been involved in suppressing protests earlier in 2026.
