Israeli warplanes will soon fly over Tehran, Netanyahu says

Iran’s parliament security committee said it has urged officials to curb UN nuclear inspections and expel non-safeguards IAEA monitors.

“Negotiations are meaningless under current conditions,” the spokesman said, calling for action against those responsible for Israel’s recent attacks.

Three Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps members were killed in an Israeli strike on the Zarandiyeh Basij base on Saturday, Iran’s Tasnim news agency said,

“Following the brutal attack by the Zionist regime on the Zarandiyeh Basij base, three members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps were killed,” Tasnim quoted the Guards as saying.

A ballistic missile launcher in western Iran that was prepared to fire was targeted and destroyed, the Israeli Defense Force said.

It released footage of the strike, saying dozens of air defense systems were hit overnight and aerial superiority established from western Iran to Tehran.

Israeli drone strike killed two officers in Hamedan province on Friday, Iranian media said as the attacks on the Islamic Republic entered a second day.

“Police chief Major Habibollah Akbarian and Lieutenant Amir Hossein Seifi were martyred,” ISNA reported Saturday.

The Israeli military said more than 70 fighter jets took part in a wide-scale overnight operation over Tehran, striking dozens of sites including Iranian air defense systems, in what it described as its deepest incursion into Iranian territory to date.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman Brigadier General Effie Defrin said the operation, which lasted approximately two and a half hours, targeted around 40 sites in and around the Iranian capital.

“The dozens of aircraft are flying freely over Tehran, thanks to the opening blow that removed the threat of Iranian air defense systems,” Defrin said.

“Tehran is no longer immune; the capital is exposed to Israeli strikes,” he said.
