The Israeli military released a public message on social media urging Iranian civilians to stay away from railway systems. Officials warned that using trains or being near railway lines could expose civilians to danger during possible military actions.
The military stated, “For the sake of your security, we kindly request that from this moment until 21:00 Iran time [17:30 GMT], you refrain from using and travelling by train throughout Iran.”

US-Israel-Iran War Latest Update: Trump’s Strait of Hormuz Deadline Raises Fear of Infrastructure Attacks
The warning from Israel came as President Donald Trump maintained pressure on Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Trump has warned that failure to comply with the deadline could lead to attacks on major infrastructure such as bridges and power plants.
Iran has responded by warning of strong retaliation if its civilian infrastructure is targeted. Officials in Tehran described potential attacks as dangerous escalations that could expand the conflict.
The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the most critical global shipping routes, carrying a large share of the world’s oil supply. Any prolonged disruption in the region could severely affect global markets and energy prices.
US-Israel-Iran War Latest Update: Fresh Strikes Reported Across Iranian Locations
Reports indicated that Israeli forces carried out new rounds of strikes across several locations in Iran, including areas near Tehran. Iranian media sources stated that a residential building in central Tehran suffered damage during one of the attacks. A synagogue located next to the building was also reportedly destroyed.
Earlier in the week, Israeli forces targeted a petrochemical facility linked to the South Pars gas field, a major energy hub shared by Iran and Qatar. These strikes increased concerns about damage to vital infrastructure and civilian zones.
Iranian health officials reported that thousands of people have died since the conflict began more than five weeks ago, highlighting the scale of destruction caused by ongoing military actions.
US-Israel-Iran War Latest Update: Regional Security Measures Expand Beyond Iran
The growing threat of regional attacks prompted neighbouring countries to strengthen security measures. Authorities temporarily closed the King Fahd Causeway, the major bridge linking Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, as a precaution.
Officials stated that the closure aimed to protect travellers from possible missile or drone attacks. The bridge plays a critical role in connecting Bahrain to the Arabian Peninsula and hosts important transport and military movement routes.
Reports also indicated increased missile interceptions in the region, including defensive actions by Saudi forces against incoming threats.
US-Israel-Iran War Latest Update: UN Vote on Hormuz Adds Diplomatic Pressure
Diplomatic efforts to address the crisis are continuing at the international level. The United Nations Security Council is expected to vote on a resolution calling for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
The proposed resolution focuses on restoring navigation but avoids authorising military force. However, political disagreements among major global powers could affect the outcome of the vote.
Experts believe the situation remains highly uncertain, as both military actions and diplomatic negotiations continue simultaneously. Observers are closely watching developments to determine whether the region moves toward further escalation or gradual de-escalation.
