Israel says it struck F-14 fighter jets at Iran’s Isfahan airport

Israel’s military said its air force struck Iranian F-14 fighter jets at Isfahan airport during a broad wave of airstrikes on Saturday.

The Israel Defense Forces said the strikes targeted Iranian military compounds at the airport, as well as detection and air defense systems that it said posed a threat to Israeli aircraft.

The Israeli military said the operation followed another strike two days earlier that it said destroyed 16 aircraft linked to the Quds Force at Tehran’s Mehrabad airport.

The IDF said it would continue targeting Iranian military systems across the country and seek to expand what it described as its aerial superiority.
