On Friday, the IDF launched targeted airstrikes on Iranian Air Force installations in western Iran, specifically hitting the “Hamadan” and “Tabriz” bases. These operations were part of Israel’s broader military response to recent Iranian aggression.
According to a statement from the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit, the “Tabriz” airbase was effectively taken out of commission as a result of the Israeli strike.
The IDF reported that, in addition to those airbases, its forces successfully destroyed numerous assets tied to Iran’s aerial threat infrastructure. These included facilities connected to the regime’s air defense systems, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and launchers for surface-to-surface missiles.
“The IDF is prepared to continue to operate as necessary. The State of Israel has the obligation to defend its civilians and will continue to do so wherever necessary, as it has done before,” said the IDF.
“The IDF is continuously conducting situational assessments and will continue to update on developments,” it added.
Alongside its offensive measures, the IDF released video evidence of one Iranian UAV being intercepted after being launched toward Israel on Friday.
The Israeli Navy also played a role in the country’s defensive efforts. A missile boat operating off Israel’s coast intercepted five UAVs launched from Iran since Friday morning. The IDF published footage showing the successful takedown of two of those drones.
