Iran strikes the Dimona reactor in response to the attack on Natanz, Death tolls more than 40

 

Profile Picture 

An Iranian ballistic missile reportedly hit Dimona in southern Israel. Most notably, the missiles appear to have penetrated advanced U.S. and Israeli air defense systems protecting the nuclear facility, with at least two interception systems reportedly bypassed in the operation. 

The International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed the incident but also indicates that no abnormal radiation levels have been detected.

"The IAEA is aware of reports of an incident in the city of Dimona, Israel, involving a missile impact and has not received any indication of damage to the nuclear research center Negev."

"Information from regional States indicates that no abnormal radiation levels have been detected."

"Closely monitoring the situation, Director General @RafaelMGrossi stressed that "maximum military restraint should be observed, in particular in the vicinity of nuclear facilities".

Iranian Revolutionary Guard Spokesperson : in a statement confirming the strikes said, "We could have struck the Dimona nuclear plant if we wanted to. This was a warning shot. If our nuclear facilities are attacked again, Dimona will be destroyed."

Israeli foreign ministry in a statement said the Iranian regime devastated Arad and Dimona by deliberately striking civilians with missiles. Over 100 people were injured, including children. A blatant war crime. Pure terrorism."

More than forty has been confirmed killed in the incident.

According to the reports by Times Of Israel: "Over 100 people were injured by Iranian strikes in the southern cities of Dimona and Arad on Saturday, 11 of them seriously, medics said, after Israeli air defenses failed to intercept at least two ballistic missiles."

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the strike a very difficult evening in the campaign for the country's future.

Netanyahu said Israel is determined to continue the war against Iran despite the devastated strikes ravaging the country by Iran's ballistic missiles.

Israel’s Home Front Command has closed schools and banned gatherings of over 50 in the south until Tuesday after Iranian missile strikes on Dimona, Kan reports. 

 The mayor of Arad in southern Israel says that about 150 families were evacuated from the neighbourhood that was hit by the Iranian missile attack.

Israel announces 'new wave of strikes' as conflict escalates 

There was a report of '3 or 4 heavy bombs' heard near Mount Damavand & Pardis, Tehran province

In another response to Trump's further threats, Iran warns it will target US and Israel‑linked energy and IT infrastructure, along with desalination plants in the region if its power plants are hit, following Trump’s threat to strike Iranian plants over the Strait of Hormuz.

American President Donald Trump had said if Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST…” 

Meanwhile, Iran has denied targeting the UK’s military base on Diego Garcia, with a senior official telling Al Jazeera it was not behind the missile attack.

 The base is being used by the US for “defensive operations” in its war with Iran. The war against Iran by US and Israel have been variously condemned as an unprovoked aggression against Tehran.

LABOUR PARTY PRESS RELEASE: STOP THE POLITICAL DESECRATION OF THE TEACHING PROFESSION — A WARNING TO THE "YAYI TEACHERS MEDIA GROUP"

LABOUR PARTY, OGUN STATE CHAPTER

DATE: March 21, 2026

 STOP THE POLITICAL DESECRATION OF THE TEACHING PROFESSION: A WARNING TO THE "YAYI TEACHERS MEDIA GROUP"*

The attention of the Ogun State Chapter of the Labour Party has been drawn to a series of misleading videos and social media campaigns orchestrated by a group styling itself as the "YAYI Teachers Media Group." This group claims to represent the collective voice of teachers in Ogun State in support of the gubernatorial ambitions of Senator Solomon Olamilekan (Yayi) under the All Progressives Congress (APC).

We find it necessary to set the record straight and protect the "good citizens of Ogun State" from this orchestrated campaign of misinformation.

1. *Misleading the Public*

The nomenclature "YAYI Teachers Media Group" is a deliberate attempt to create a false impression that the noble teachers of Ogun State—both in public and private service—have abandoned their neutrality to become political appendages of a partisan interest. This is a gross insult to the thousands of teachers who remain committed to their professional ethics.

2. *Violation of Extant Civil Service Rules*

The Labour Party wishes to remind the promoters of this group that Public Servants (including public school teachers) are strictly governed by laws that forbid partisan political campaigning while in active service.  

Ogun State Public Service Rules (PSR): Specifically, Rules 04401, 04402, and 04406 prohibit civil servants from participating in partisan political activities, attending political rallies, or acting as "canvassers" for candidates.

National Precedent: In 2016, the Ogun State Civil Service Commission sanctioned several workers for similar partisan displays during the World Teachers Day celebration, citing these exact rules.  

Professional Misconduct: Under Nigerian Educational Law, engaging in activities that bring the profession into disrepute or violate the neutrality of the classroom is a ground for disciplinary action, ranging from suspension to outright dismissal.

3. *The Constitutional Boundary*

While we acknowledge the Supreme Court’s ruling in INEC vs. Musa (2003) regarding the right of association, the law is clear: a public servant's right to belong to a party does not grant them the right to use their professional identity (as "Ogun Teachers") to conduct public campaigns. Partisanship in the discharge of duty is a "red line" that maintains the stability of our democracy.

4. *Our Call to Action*

To the Head of Service and Ministry of Education: We call on the Ogun State Government to investigate the individuals behind the "YAYI Teachers Media Group." If they are indeed public servants, they must be held accountable to the Civil Service Rules to prevent the total collapse of discipline in our schools.

To Our Teachers: Do not allow yourselves to be used as political shields. Your reward should not just be in heaven, but also in a state that respects your professional boundaries today.

To the General Public: Disregard these videos. They do not represent the silent majority of educators who are more concerned with the dwindling standards of education and their welfare than with the 2027 ambitions of any politician.

The Labour Party remains the only platform committed to the true empowerment of workers and the restoration of dignity to the classroom.

Signed,

Apagun Olaolu Samuel 

State Chairman,

Labour Party, 

Ogun State.

PRESS RELEASE: LABOUR PARTY SETS TIMETABLE FOR PRIMARIES, FIXES MAY 23, 2026 FOR PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY

..... SUSPENDS ERRING MEMBERS

The National Executive Council (NEC) of the Labour Party has approved the timetable for the conduct of its primary elections ahead of the 2027 general elections. At a well-attended statutory NEC meeting held on Tuesday, 17th March 2026, and duly observed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the Party, in compliance with the Electoral Act and INEC’s guidelines, approved the following schedule:

1. Submission of Membership Register to INEC – April 15, 2026

2. Governorship, Senate, House of Representatives, and House of Assembly Primaries – Friday, May 15, 2026

3. Presidential Primary Election – Saturday, May 23, 2026

NEC also noted with satisfaction and ratified the actions of the National Leadership of the Party regarding the conduct of Ward, Local Government, and State Congresses scheduled for March 26, 28, and 31, 2026 respectively, as well as the National Convention slated for April 11, 2026.

The Council, which remains the highest decision-making organ of the Party after the National Convention, reviewed recent developments within the Party. This included the recent unfortunate invasion of the Party Secretariat by hoodlums allegedly sponsored by certain rogue elements.

Following a thorough review of the report and recommendations of the Peace, Reconciliation and Disciplinary Committee, chaired by Comrade Salisu Mohammed (BOT Secretary), NEC invoked its disciplinary powers and approved the suspension of the following members for acts of indiscipline, anti-party activities, and complicity in the desecration of the Party's National Secretariat: Eneyi G. Zidougha, Hilda Doukubo, Lincolin Charles, Muhammed Sabitu Aliyu, Ogar Osim, Vincent Okwuokei, Casmir Agbo Uchenna, Simon Zubairu Bamga, Abduljamid Sa’ad Suleiman, Emmanuel Agida, Auwala Ahmed, Ularama Jubrila, Grace Zafara Posat, Suleiman Abdurahman Abdul, Ajibade Adekunle Samson, Alexander Emmanuel Ombugu, Elizabeth Ativie, Godwin Jioke, Airen Igbinedion, Osas Frank, Kennedy Ahanotu, Ayidele Olurunfemi, B. Arabanbi, Umar Faruk Ibrahim, Auwal Tafoki, and Obiora Ifoh.

NEC further ratified and approved the ongoing expansion of the Party’s membership register through a hybrid approach - Digital Membership Registration (e-registration) alongside manual registration in rural communities. This initiative is aimed at modernizing the Party’s database, strengthening participatory democracy, and enhancing transparency and efficiency in Party administration, in line with the provisions of the Electoral Act 2026.

Additionally, NEC resolved that all existing vacancies within Party structures shall be filled through the appointment of interim leadership to ensure continuity in administration. The National Leadership has been duly empowered to make such appointments, which will remain in acting capacity pending the conduct of substantive congresses in accordance with the Party Constitution and approved timetable.

The Council also urged members to utilize the Party’s internal dispute resolution mechanisms to address grievances, thereby promoting unity and minimizing internal conflicts.

Finally, NEC welcomed the recent judgment of the Federal High Court affirming the leadership of Senator Nenadi Usman as Interim National Chairman. The Council passed a vote of confidence on her leadership, the Interim National Working Committee, the BOT, leadership of the NLC, leadership of the TUC, and the leadership of Governor Alex Otti. NEC also commended INEC for its prompt compliance with the court’s pronouncement.
