According to reports from Israel's state television KAN, the Israel National Cyber Directorate announced that messages sent to citizens' phones warning of potential terror attacks and advising them to leave shelters were fake.
WARNING MESSAGE SENT
The fake emergency warning message, which was stated to imitate warning messages sent by the Israel Home Front Command, included the phrases, “There is a possibility of a terror attack in the shelters. Avoid staying in shelters until further notice.”
On the other hand, it was stated that messages sent to Israelis' phones claiming that there would be no fuel sales at gas stations for 24 hours starting from midnight were also intended to create panic.
WHAT HAPPENED?
On June 13, Israel carried out large-scale attacks targeting the military's high command, primarily nuclear facilities in various cities in Iran.
While the Chief of General Staff of Iran, the Commander-in-Chief of the Revolutionary Guards, some high-ranking commanders, and 9 nuclear scientists died in the attacks, the total civilian death toll was announced as 224.
It was reported that 24 people died and more than 500 people were injured in the retaliation carried out by the Iranian army against Israel with ballistic missiles.
