On Saturday morning, the IDF announced that Israeli strikes hit 16 aircraft belonging to the Quds Force on Saturday at Mehrabad Airport in Tehran. Quds Force oversees Iran’s overseas military operations.

They added that Mehrabad is a central hub used by the IRGC to move weapons and cash to Iran-backed armed groups across the Middle East.

IDF shared, “TRUCK: 16 IRGC Quds Force aircraft used to transfer weapons to Hezbollah.”

“The IAF conducted a wave of precise strikes in Tehran, targeting military infrastructure at Mehrabad Airport, a central hub used by the IRGC to arm and fund its terror proxies across the Middle East.”

“Several Iranian fighter jets were also struck. Prior to the strikes, steps were taken to mitigate harm to civilians.”

Iran International English shared a video reportedly showing the aftermath of the strike.

In the video, destroyed planes are seen scattered across the ground.

Watch:

“The IDF dismantled the air defense situation room of the IRGC Air Force, responsible for the aerial situational assessment and to defend Iran’s airspace.”

“Additionally, the Israeli Air Force struck air defense systems, a site used to manufacture & launch ballistic missiles, command centers, storage facilities, and additional structures.”

On Friday, IDF announced that key Iranian regime military infrastructure in Tehran and central Iran were also struck.

Targets included:

  • IRGC Imam Hossein military university—used for IRGC officer training and assembly compound
