Key points
- Attacks targeted and destroyed several weapons depots, dozens of ballistic missiles, and launchers.
- Strikes also hit drone depots, defense systems, and facilities used for weapons production.
- The IDF stated that since the operation began (in conjunction with the US against Tehran), it has launched over 7,600 strikes in Iran and 1,100 in Lebanon.
- Previous actions included a preemptive strike by Israel on February 28, which Iran answered with strikes on Israel and US bases.
Why it matters
