The developments in the Middle East are stormy, with Iran now returning Trump’s ultimatum, which threatens to “destroy an entire civilization”, saying for its part that it will “wipe Israel off the map” if the US-Israeli alliance carries out its blackmail.
In fact, for this purpose, Russia has transferred to Tehran a list of 55 critical targets in Israeli territory, which Iranian forces are committed to mercilessly striking, in the event that the US ultimatum is activated – which, it should be noted, expires at 3:00 pm on April 8.
It is noted that there have already been airstrikes by the US and Israel on Kharg Island, as well as on Iranian cities such as Qom, as well as on bridges, according to the Iranian news agency Mehr.
As it is understood, the Israelis are trying in every way to torpedo any peace talks between Iran and the US, while Tehran appears adamant and unwilling to agree to what it considers “unprofitable and unfair terms” of a ceasefire.
Shivering in Israel
Russian intelligence has given Iran a detailed list of 55 critical energy infrastructure targets in Israel, according to Iranian intelligence.
Level 1: Critical generation facilities. These are locations whose destruction would cripple the national energy system. In fact, the list specifically names the Orot Rabin power plant as the primary target.
Level 2: Major urban and industrial energy centers. These facilities are located primarily in central Israel and serve large population centers.
Level 3: Local infrastructure. These targets include regional substations that support industrial zones and smaller power plants.
Israel will experience an energy collapse
Specifically, Russia reportedly shared with Iran a detailed list containing 55 critical targets in Israel’s energy infrastructure.
Because Israel is an “energy island,” an attack on several strategic facilities could lead to a complete collapse.
It has been claimed that Russian intelligence provided the Islamic Republic of Iran with a detailed list of targets including 55 critical energy infrastructure facilities within the borders of the State of Israel.
The deepening military cooperation between Moscow and Tehran paves the way for precision missile strikes that could cripple Israel’s national electricity grid.
Orot Rabin plant as primary target
The intelligence report identifies key production facilities as primary targets, with the Orot Rabin power plant specifically mentioned as a primary target.
Second-level targets include major urban and industrial energy hubs in central Israel, while third-level targets are reportedly regional substations and local power generation stations.
Russia’s assessment suggests that Israel, unlike many European countries, is an isolated “energy island” that does not import electricity from its neighbors, which means that damage to key components could lead to massive power outages and technical failures that would be difficult to repair.
Tasnim: Israel’s bridges, roads, railway network will be reduced to ashes
In addition to the Jewish state’s energy infrastructure, Iran, through the Tasnim agency, gave another list of potential Israeli targets, which include bridges, main roads and train stations.
It is worth noting that the Israeli army itself is fully aware of the strategic importance of this network. Specifically, the targets include:
- Ashkelon-Sderot railway line
- The Yarkon railway bridge
- Yizre’el Tunnel
- Rehovot Station – The major railway, commercial hub
- The Lod railway hub
- The Israel Railways Cyber Operations Center (CSOC)
- The Savidor Central Station in Tel Aviv
- The HaShalom Station in Tel Aviv
- The ports of Haifa and Ashdod
Iran Cuts Off All Contact with US After Trump Threat of Total Annihilation
In addition to publicizing potential targets for retaliation within Israel, Tehran said it was cutting off all contact with the US, even through third countries.
“Iran has closed all channels of communication with the United States, including indirect messaging,” the Tehran Times reported.
This comes in the wake of a series of threats by Trump to destroy the Middle Eastern country. The English-language publication also reported that “all messaging exchanges,” presumably through intermediaries, have also been suspended.
