The Israeli Air Force has launched a new wave of strikes against Iranian regime infrastructure sites in Tehran, the IDF announces.

The strikes come after the IDF announced that it killed Iran’s “de facto leader” Ali Larijani, the commander of the Basij paramilitary force, Gholamreza Soleimani, and other top Basij officials in Tehran overnight.
