Israeli state media said that the country was currently attacking Western Iran. Meanwhile, Iranian state media confirmed that air defences had been activated in the same area.

“Right now we’re doing pretty well. Remember, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon,” Trump told reporters upon being asked if he could do anything more for Israel.

On his call for people to evacuate from Tehran, the US president says: “I just want people to be safe.”

“As a result of these brutal military attacks, which is the clear violation of all international principles and regulations, 224 of civilian citizens including women and children have been martyred and 1257 others injured so far,” it said in a statement.

“I have not reached out to Iran for ‘Peace Talks’ in any way, shape, or form. This is just more highly fabricated, fake news! If they want to talk, they know how to reach me. They should have taken the deal that was on the table – would have saved a lot of lives!” US President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The Iranian Embassy in New Delhi also alleged that Israel had “developed nuclear weapons without being responsive to any international community including IAEA” in a statement on Tuesday.

“It is the sheer hypocrisy that a genocidal non- NPT nuclear entity accuses a NPT member of threatening the global security and attacks its nuclear establishments and assassinate systematically its scientists and university professors,” it added.

“We’re looking at better than a ceasefire…A real end. Not a ceasefire. An end,” he told reporters from Air Force One.

“We invite Iranians, our Indian friends & all supporters worldwide to sign the Declaration of Solidarity with Iran against Zionist aggression,” the Iranian Consulate handle wrote on X.

The Iranian Embassy in New Delhi released a statement condemning the “unlawful military attacks” from Israel — calling it a “flagrant violation of Article 2(4) of the UN Charter and blatant acts of aggression”.

“In accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter, Iran reserves its legitimate and legal rights to respond properly and timely to these aggressions. Zionist Regime started military attacks while Iran was demonstrating its respect to international law by engagement in the indirect negotiations with US in order to settle the disputes including the nuclear issues. It is highly expected that all justice-advocating member states of the United Nations, to condemn these criminal aggressions and take urgent and collective measures to stop this reckless adventurism,” it added.

At least three people were rescued from the rubble of a residential building stuck during Israeli strikes, state media in Iran reported. Further details on the rescue was was not provided by the local media but Iran’s IRNA news agency published footage of the Red Crescent rescue operation.

In a unified move, twenty nations issued a joint statement denouncing Israel’s recent military actions against Iran, warning that the aggression risks plunging the Middle East into deeper instability. The countries—including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, Pakistan, and the UAE—called for “an immediate halt to Israeli hostilities” and urged all sides to pursue diplomacy and dialogue.

Stressing the urgent need for de-escalation, the foreign ministers advocated for a comprehensive ceasefire and the restoration of calm. The coalition rejected military solutions, warning that continued conflict would only worsen regional tensions and endanger civilian lives.

Iran’s Maj. Gen. Ali Shadmani, newly appointed head of the Khatam-al Anbiya Central Headquarters, was killed in an airstrike just four days into his role. He had replaced Maj. Gen. Gholam Ali Rashid, who died in Israel’s initial strikes on Friday.

Despite rising tensions between Iran and Israel, US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Fox News that President Donald Trump remains committed to pursuing a nuclear deal with Tehran.

“Of course,” Hegseth responded when asked if Trump still seeks an agreement, adding the US remains “defensively postured” to support peace. Meanwhile, a White House aide confirmed that Washington was not launching attacks on Iran.

On social media, Trump urged civilians to “immediately evacuate Tehran,” citing Iran’s rejection of a nuclear deal.

In response to the worsening security situation in Tehran, Indian students have been moved out of the city by the Embassy for safety reasons, informed MEA.

Citizens who are self sufficient in terms of transport have also been advised to relocate from the Iranian capital. Additionally, the Indian mission has helped some nationals exit Iran via the Armenia border.

The Embassy remains in close contact with the Indian community in Iran, providing all feasible assistance as needed. Officials have indicated that further advisories may follow, given the rapidly evolving conflict between Iran and Israel.

The Group of Seven (G7) nations issued a strong joint statement backing Israel and condemning Iran amid escalating hostilities in the Middle East. Calling Iran the “principal source of regional instability and terror,” G7 leaders reaffirmed Israel’s right to self-defense and voiced support for its security. The statement followed days of aerial conflict between Israel and Iran, triggered by Israeli airstrikes on Iranian territory.

The G7 also emphasised that Iran must “never have a nuclear weapon,” underscoring global concerns over Tehran’s nuclear ambitions. While supporting Israel, the G7 urged all parties to de-escalate to avoid further regional destabilisation.

“All Indian Nationals and PIOs who can move out of Tehran using their own resources, are advised to move to a safe location outside the City,” says India in Iran under MEA.

India in Iran post, “All Indian Nationals who are in Tehran and not in touch with the Embassy are requested to contact the Embassy of India in Tehran immediately and provide their Location and Contact numbers. Kindly contact: +989010144557; +989128109115; +989128109109 @MEAIndia.”

Israel’s emergency service Magen David Adom said no injuries were reported from Iran’s latest strikes. While sirens sounded in northern Israel, MDA confirmed they received no direct distress calls. A few individuals sustained minor injuries while rushing to shelters, but there were no casualties from the missile impacts themselves.

Two large cargo planes flying from China to Iran reportedly disabled their transponders before entering Iranian airspace, raising suspicions of military cargo transfers. Aviation experts note this tactic is often used to conceal sensitive shipments. This isn’t the first instance of China-Iran cooperation; past reports and investigations have linked the CCP to covert support for Tehran’s military infrastructure.

The White House is exploring a possible meeting between US envoy Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to discuss reviving the nuclear deal and brokering a ceasefire, Axios reports.
