A wave of Israeli airstrikes in three areas of Iran yesterday targeted Iranian military sites and infrastructure, the IDF says.

Dozens of Israeli Air Force fighter jets dropped dozens of bombs during the strikes in Tehran, Shiraz, and Tabriz.

In Tehran, the IDF says it bombed various security headquarters, including those belonging to Iran’s Intelligence Ministry and Basij paramilitary force, as well as sites used to store and launch drones, ballistic missiles, and air defense systems.

In Shiraz, the IAF struck a headquarters of Iran’s internal security forces, as well as a ballistic missile storage site, the military says.

In Tabriz, Israeli fighter jets destroyed additional air defense systems “to expand air superiority,” the IDF says.

The IDF says the strikes are part of a “phase of deepening the blows to the core systems and capabilities of the Iranian terror regime.”
