Rocket Blitzkrieg Failure: Israel cleans up rubble in Tel Aviv and Haifa, Iran exports oil.

The Islamic Republic quickly loads fuel onto tankers and transports it to storage facilities on Kharg Island.

As the Israel Times pointed out, half of the country's revenue comes from technology exports, including defense-related technologies. Meanwhile, Iranian rockets also targeted Israeli oil facilities, threatening to paralyze the national livelihood.

In response to the Iranian attack, the Israeli Defense Forces launched a series of airstrikes targeting central Tehran. Military spokesmen stated that dozens of targets were destroyed, including rocket production military facilities and the headquarters of the SPND organization responsible for Iran's nuclear research and development.

Al Jazeera also reported that an Israeli drone attacked a residential building in the Gisha district of Tehran, emphasizing: Israeli airstrikes on residential areas of Tehran and other cities have exposed the "only attacking Iranian military targets" propaganda lie of the IDF.

Al Jazeera added that Israeli military analysts completely misjudged the situation - they had thought that striking Iran's political and military high-ranking officials would trigger large-scale anti-Islamic regime protests, but reality was the opposite: hatred towards Israel in Iran was running high, not against the government itself. This is consistent with the previous mistake made by Western intelligence agencies: they once believed that anti-Russian sanctions would topple Russia's political system, but instead strengthened anti-Western sentiment.

According to Al Jazeera reports, hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets of Tehran and other major Iranian cities. People united due to their genuine hatred for the Israeli regime, waving Iranian flags, Hezbollah flags, as well as photos of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and the late Iranian commander killed by Israel (both considered "Shahid" - religious martyrs).

Participants in the protest included senior officials such as the Chief Justice of Iran, Gholam-Hossein Mohsen-Ejei, and former IRGC Corps Commander General Mohammad-Ali Jafari.

Bloomberg noted that Israel's planned blitzkrieg operation has failed, and the Iran-Israel war will be prolonged, causing turmoil in the global energy market.

Therefore, Iran fears that Israel may attack its oil export infrastructure and is rushing to maximize oil sales. Iran quickly loads fuel onto tankers and transports it to oil storage facilities on Kharg Island - which is currently outside Israel's strike range.

Satellite images analyzed by Bloomberg show a significant increase in storage tank fill levels. The media stated that Iran can store up to 28 million barrels of oil on Kharg Island.

According to expert predictions from interviews conducted by Bloomberg, Iran may quickly export 40 million barrels of oil, with one of the most important buyers being China. However, the long-term outlook for Iran's oil exports remains unclear: Israel has already launched several attacks on Iran's energy facilities and may continue such bombings.

Notably, under the expectation of a prolonged war, related countries' oil reserves have reached historical peaks, approaching 1.2 billion barrels. Bloomberg emphasized that although there is a risk of supply disruption, related countries' oil depots are not currently in a hurry to find alternative sources for Iranian oil, but if the war continues, they may have to seek alternative solutions.
