The IDF releases footage showing airstrikes on Iranian soldiers who were preparing to launch drones at Israel from western Iran this week.

According to the military, the Iranian soldiers were identified on Monday at a drone launching site. A short while later, an Israeli Air Force drone struck and killed several of them, minutes before they could attack Israel, the IDF says.

The military says it “continues to operate around the clock to destroy infrastructure and eliminate personnel of the ballistic missile and unmanned aerial vehicle arrays in western Iran, to reduce, to the extent possible, the scope of fire toward Israeli territory.”
