Israeli Air Force fighter jets have dropped over 100 munitions on targets in Tehran in the past two hours, according to the IDF.

In the latest wave of strikes on Tehran, the IDF says it struck the Thar-Allah Headquarters of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which is “tasked with defending Tehran against security threats, including internal threats.”

The strikes also hit the Sayyid al-Shuhada Corps, also part of the IRGC, which the military says is “responsible for homeland defense, including the suppression of internal threats such as protests and unrest in Tehran.”

Additional strikes in Tehran hit the headquarters of Iran’s internal security forces’ information security unit. The IDF says the unit is “responsible for monitoring personnel within the internal security forces, and overseeing the control and supervision of information and communications within the organization.”
