The Israel Defense Forces released a video on Tuesday showing the Israeli Air Force destroying the “, defense systems, and live-fire arrays.”
The IDF stated that more than 60 strikes were recently carried out in waves across western Iran, targeting objects such as vehicles transporting ballistic missiles, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and loaded missile launchers.
This development comes as Iran “once again” fired missiles containing cluster sub-munitions at Israeli civilians on Tuesday, according to IDF international spokesperson Lt. Nadav Shoshani.
“The war crimes of the Iranian regime continue,” he wrote on X.
Shoshani said that, “Our forces, together with the U.S. armed forces, continue military capabilities.”
“Yesterday, Iran’s main terrorist proxy, Hezbollah, launched dozens of rockets and UAVs from at Israeli civilians in northern Israel,” he continued. “Our forces have been prepared to strengthen and protect all borders as part of this operation and are fully ready.”
“We are preparing for the possibility that Hezbollah will expand their attacks against Israeli civilians,” Shoshani warned. “This includes strengthening aerial defense systems and the presence of troops.”
“Overnight, IDF troops were positioned at several points in southern Lebanon near the border area as part of an enhanced forward defense stance. Let me be clear: this is not a ground operation into Lebanon. It is a tactical measure to create an additional level of security for the residents of northern Israel,” Shoshani added.
“Let me remind you, on Oct. 8th, the day after the Oct. 7 massacre, Hezbollah took control of vantage points near the northern border and fired RPGs and missiles randomly at Israeli civilians in the northern border. As a result, Israel had to evacuate around 60,000 civilians from their homes for many months. We will not let that happen again,” he said. “Overnight, we carried out a series of preventive strikes on Hezbollah military infrastructure across Lebanon to neutralize the continuous fire towards our civilians.”
