The Israeli Air Force overnight bombed several Iranian ballistic missile launchers, along with air defense systems and radars, the military says, attaching footage of the strikes.
According to the IDF, some of the launchers that were struck were used to fire ballistic missiles at Israel earlier.
The IDF says it will continue to “hunt down” Iran’s ballistic missile launchers in western Iran, to prevent attacks on Israel.
The air defenses and radars were struck “as part of the IDF’s aerial superiority in Iranian airspace,” the military says.
Additionally, some 80 targets in Tehran were hit overnight, according to the IDF.
The targets in the Iranian capital included fuel depots, the Iranian Defense Ministry headquarters, the “headquarters of the SPND nuclear project” and other targets related to Iran’s nuclear program.
IAF fighter jets also hit gas infrastructure near Bandar Abbas. The military says the fuel and gas sites are used by Iran for military purposes and for its nuclear project.
In all, since early Friday, the IDF says it has hit 720 separate assets in some 170 strikes in Iran.
Iran’s overnight attacks on Israel included a total of 70 ballistic missiles and dozens of drones, according to the IDF’s latest estimates.
The missiles were fired in three waves at 11 p.m., 2 a.m. and 2:55 a.m., coinciding with the dozens of drones.
One projectile struck a home in the town of Tamra, killing four civilians; another struck Bat Yam, killing at least six civilians and wounding nearly 200; and another struck Rehovot, wounding another 40 people.
The military says that so far, Iran’s attacks are below the “reference scenario,” or what the IDF had anticipated in a war with Iran. The IDF had estimated far larger numbers of casualties and more significant damage.
Iran is still believed to possess thousands of ballistic missiles.
