The IDF says it continues to strike in Iran, and its next step is to “operate freely over Tehran.”

A series of strikes overnight took out air defense systems, and this morning, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir said that “the way to Tehran has been paved.”

The military publishes footage of those strikes.

The strikes will continue to target Iranian nuclear facilities, military sites, and ballistic missile launchers, as well as military officials and nuclear scientists, the IDF says.

Over 150 targets have been struck thus far, since the beginning of Israel’s operation early Friday.
