Despite the airstrikes prompting unease, Soheil noted, “The vibe is not normal, though. People are feeling a mix of emotions: some are scared, some indifferent, and others are somewhat pleased, thinking these strikes could be a wake-up call for the regime.” Meanwhile, Iranian authorities downplayed the severity of the attacks, labeling the damage as “limited” while maintaining that their air defense systems effectively intercepted a significant portion of the strikes.

Adding to the tense atmosphere, strange night-time explosions kept many awake, contrasting sharply with moments of routine life and daily concerns. Citizens have turned to social media to share their thoughts, creating an interactive dialogue about the conflict and its implications for the nation’s future. Iranians, aware of the unpredictability of regional dynamics, remain watchful while hoping for a quick return to peace.
