Israel says it struck IRGC sites in Tehran, missile facilities in Isfahan

Mar 9, 2026, 19:32 GMT+0

The Israeli military said on Monday it carried out a new wave of airstrikes targeting what it called Iranian military infrastructure in Tehran, Isfahan and the Shiraz area.

In a statement, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said dozens of fighter jets launched the operation using more than 170 munitions against command centers, missile production facilities and other military sites linked to Iran’s government and the Revolutionary Guards.

According to the IDF, one of the targets in Tehran was a command center belonging to the IRGC’s Quds Force, which it said is responsible for coordinating Iran’s regional proxy groups and supporting militant operations across the Middle East.

The military also said it struck a site in Isfahan used to manufacture and store missiles designed to target Israeli aircraft, along with several Iranian air defense systems.

Additional military infrastructure was also hit in the Shiraz area, the statement said. Israel said the strikes were part of an ongoing campaign aimed at damaging key components of Iran’s military capabilities.
