The Israeli military has issued an urgent evacuation order for an industrial area in western Tabriz, warning residents of imminent strikes. The alert follows a massive, multi-day wave of US and Israeli bombardments targeting Iranian military infrastructure.
On Saturday, March 14, the Israeli military issued an urgent evacuation alert for civilians located in the industrial zone of western Tabriz, warning of imminent military operations in the area.
According to the official Persian-language channel of the ارتش دفاعى اسرائيل (IDF), individuals were instructed to immediately evacuate an area explicitly marked in red on an attached map. The IDF stated, "Just as the Israeli army has taken action in recent days in the Tehran region to attack the military infrastructure of the Iranian regime, it will operate in this area in the coming hours." The military stressed that remaining in the designated zone endangers citizens' lives and urged immediate departure for their safety.
This localized warning follows an unprecedented wave of joint US and Israeli airstrikes between March 9 and March 13 that decimated Iranian military, air defense, and naval infrastructure, as well as Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) facilities across the country.
Multiple foreign-based Persian-language news outlets, which generally maintain editorial stances critical of the Islamic Republic, immediately amplified the Israeli military's warning to Iranian audiences. Iran International ایران اینترنشنال, a prominent anti-regime network, reported that the Israeli army warned residents that their presence in the specified area puts their lives at risk due to upcoming military activity.
Germany's state-owned DW Persian دویچهوله فارسی relayed the "urgent warning", highlighting the IDF's statements regarding recent strikes against Iranian regime military infrastructure in the Tehran area and forthcoming actions in Tabriz. Saudi-owned العربیه فارسی also echoed the evacuation orders, reiterating the severe threat to life for anyone remaining in the industrial zone. Furthermore, the breaking news aggregator اخبارفوری خبرفوری جنگ امریکا فوری broadcasted the alert, instructing all individuals to leave based on the IDF's red-marked map.
The source messages demonstrate a swift and uniform amplification of official IDF evacuation warnings by major foreign-based Persian news networks (Iran International, DW Persian, Al Arabiya). These networks faithfully translate and relay the Israeli military's framing of the targets as military infrastructure of the Iranian regime, reflecting their shared anti-Islamic Republic editorial postures.
