Middle East crisis: 'Striking dozens of Iran missile launchers,' says Israel; two Iranian generals killed
Israel's military announced Saturday it was targeting dozens of missile launch sites in Iran, after Tehran fired multiple barrages in response to strikes on its military and nuclear facilities. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The Israeli air force "continues striking dozens of surface-to-surface missile launchers in Iran", the military said in a statement. Meanwhile, Iran confirmed that two senior Iranian generals were killed in Israeli strikes. State media reported that General Gholamreza Mehrabi, deputy chief of intelligence for the armed forces general staff, and General Mehdi Rabbani, deputy head of operations, had been "martyred" in the Israeli strikes. The Israel military informed that it "struck dozens of targets, including surface-to-air missile infrastructure, as part of the effort to damage the Iranian regime's aerial defence capabilities in the area of Tehran". " For the first time since the beginning of the war, over 1,500 kilometres (well over 900 miles) from Israeli territory, the Israeli air force struck defence arrays in the area of Tehran," it added. Israeli emergency services reported that two people were killed early Saturday when a rocket struck a residential area, as cross-border fire between Israel and Iran continued into a second day despite growing international calls for calm. "We damaged -- and will continue to damage -- strategic sites and enemy sources of knowledge," commanding officer of Israeli air force MG Tomer Bar said in a statement. "Activities like these require complicated coordination and collaboration between different sources and capabilities in the force," he added. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The conflict escalated after Israel launched what it called its largest-ever military operation against Iran, involving warplanes and drones that struck deep inside Iranian territory, targeting nuclear sites, missile factories, and command centers—killing senior military officers and nuclear scientists. In response, Iran fired a barrage of ballistic missiles at Tel Aviv, vowing that 'everyone will feel it.' A second wave of missile and drone attacks followed on Friday night, triggering air raid sirens and explosions across Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Israel confirmed that missiles struck near residential areas in central Israel, injuring 10 people.
