Israel struck Iranian military facilities
On October 26, Israel launched an attack on Iran in response to a massive ballistic missile attack in early October.
In response to months of continuous attacks by the regime in Iran on the state of Israel, the Israel Defense Forces are now carrying out precision strikes on military targets in Iran, the IDF said.
It emphasized that the regime in Iran and its proxies in the region have been relentlessly attacking Israel since October 7 — on seven fronts, including direct attacks from Iranian territory.
In a comment to NBC News, two senior Arab officials said the initial strike on Tehran was likely to have hit a barracks or office, as well as a weapons depot.
One of the locations in Iran attacked by Israel was a military base for launching ballistic missiles, Sky News Arabia said, citing a source. Iran's air defense systems were unable to intercept any of the missiles launched by Israel.
