The raids targeted 12 critical sites believed to house and launch ballistic missiles aimed at Israel. The Israeli military stated that the operation is part of a broader campaign to weaken Iran's offensive capabilities and degrade its air defense systems.
An Israeli army spokesperson issued a stark warning: 'There is no longer a safe city for anyone to take refuge in the Middle East. This is not just a slogan, it is the truth.'

According to the Israeli army spokesperson, the Revolutionary Guard's command centers were also hit in what they described as a deepening of strikes against Iran's military backbone.
The raids come amid growing concerns over Iran's missile arsenal, with Channel 12 estimating that Tehran still possesses around 1,800 ballistic missiles capable of striking Israel and beyond.
Simultaneously, Iran activated its anti-aircraft missile systems in Tehran and other regions as missiles were launched in retaliation toward Israel.
In Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province, Iranian forces reportedly shot down two drones attempting to infiltrate airspace, likely part of the ongoing aerial assault.
Adding to the multidimensional conflict, Iran's Cybersecurity Organization accused Israel of launching a wide-scale cyberattack targeting critical digital infrastructure across the country. The operation appears to be one of the largest cyber offensives in the current confrontation.
