Marking a year since its retaliatory strikes against Iran, the IDF publishes new footage showing attacks on Iranian air defense batteries.

The strikes on October 26, 2024, came four weeks after Iran launched a massive ballistic missile barrage on Israel.

The IDF says the strikes, dubbed “Operation Days of Repentance,” widened the Israeli Air Force’s freedom of action ahead of the 12-day war in June 2025, which saw large portions of Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities destroyed, along with attacks on several nuclear sites.
