After dozens of strikes in the Iranian capital, Minister of Defense Katz warns: ‘Explosions in Iran’s capital.’
The IAF on Sunday struck the Mehrabad International Airport in western Tehran. This is the fourth airport that Israel has struck since the campaign began.
At the same time, dozens of fighter jets struck air defense systems and IRGC buildings in the capital.
The strikes came a short time after Minister of Defense Israel Katz published a strong statement on social media in which he wrote: “Tehran will face the same fate as Beirut.”
The statement comes amid an extensive series of strikes by the IAF in Iran, including the capital city of Tehran.
The IDF stated that throughout the night, Israeli Air Force fighter jets flew over Tehran and struck infrastructure and targets of the Iranian nuclear project, under the guidance of the Intelligence Directorate.
According to the IDF, the strike targeted more than 80 objectives, including the headquarters of the Iranian Ministry of Defense, the headquarters of the nuclear project (SPND), and additional targets where the Iranian regime hid the nuclear archive.
