IAF conducts historically large aerial strikes: over 200 fighter jets strike 500 Iranian targets

"Rockets away! Oy Vay!"

The Israeli Air Force (IAF) just delivered a massive blow to Iran's ballistic missile capabilities in what Israeli officials are calling the largest aerial operation in the history of the Jewish state.

Over 200 Israeli Air Force jets hammered around 500 targets across Iran on Saturday night. An IDF video captured the action in two major waves. The opening salvo took out dozens of radars and anti-aircraft systems, focusing heavily on western Iran and the Tehran region to clear the skies.

The follow-up strikes zeroed in on Iran's ballistic missile infrastructure, aiming to cripple Tehran's ability to rain down rockets on Israeli civilians.

In the Tabriz area specifically, the IDF hit a key launch site "from which the Islamic Republic has fired dozens of ballistic missiles at Israel."

Satellite imagery also surfaced showing what looks like an Israeli strike on a bunker guarding Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

The Israeli military isn't stopping at one-and-done hits. They're pushing hard to re-establish the kind of air supremacy they achieved back in June 2025. The goal: keep drones and other platforms loitering over potential launch zones so missile crews can be taken out before they even get a shot off.

This is Israel saying enough is enough. Tehran has been lobbing missiles for too long, and now the IDF is systematically dismantling that threat. Expect more strikes to follow as the operation continues.
