Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps threatened yesterday to escalate the rate and intensity of missile fire at Israel, saying it would from now on only fire missiles with warheads of one ton or more.

Israel bolsters aerial superiority over Iran

In a wave of strikes against the Iranian regime yesterday, the Israeli Air Force hit six major Iranian military airfields.

As part of the strikes, numerous aircraft were dismantled, including Quds Force aircraft belonging to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Iranian combat helicopters.

In addition, runways and defense and detection systems intended to operate against Israeli aircraft operating in Iranian airspace were struck.

The airfields that were struck were used by the Iranian terror regime to arm and finance terrorist proxies across the Middle East, including Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthi terrorist regime.

Israeli warplanes struck an IRGC UAV headquarters. From there, the Iranian terror regime launched drones toward the State of Israel and stored within it additional drones that were prepared for launch.

The combined effort to further degrade the regime's offensive and defense capabilities continues, including an expansion of strikes on the ballistic missile production infrastructure throughout Iran.

Within minutes: Israeli warplanes strike a missile launcher that launched missiles toward the State of Israel just moments earlier.

Israel is degrading Iran’s offensive missile capabilities

In an interview with CNN, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar said that Iranian missile launches at Israel had decreased significant due to Israeli and American warplanes relentlessly hunting down the Iranian military’s launchers and bombing its missile depots.

“There is no doubt that the ability of the Iranians to launch on Israel … decreased because we hunt so many of the launchers.”
