VIDEO: What Happened Overnight in Iran? Which Targets Were Hit

The Israeli army has issued a statement regarding nighttime strikes on Iran. Strikes targeted various objects across Iran, focusing on missile production facilities, Iranian surface-to-air missile complexes, and Iranian air capabilities. If Iran decides to respond to Israel's attack, the Jewish state will have to react.

We have successfully neutralized the majority of threats, declared Iran's air defense headquarters. Despite previous warnings from the Islamic Republic of Iran to refrain from any adventurous actions against the criminal and illegal Zionist regime, this false regime attacked military centers in Tehran, Khuzestan, and Ilam provinces this morning. The country's air defense system successfully resisted this action. Some areas sustained limited damage, and the scale of the incident is currently under discussion.

Iran is resuming flight operations following the closure of its airspace due to the Israeli attack, as reported by a representative from the Islamic Republic's Civil Aviation Organization. "Flights will return to normal mode this Saturday," quoted by IRNA news agency.

The Israel Defense Forces have announced the completion of attacks on targets in Iran. According to the army press service, Israeli forces struck missile production enterprises. It has been stated that Israel reserves the right to defend itself against new Iranian attacks.

Israeli forces reportedly carried out three rounds of strikes against targets within Iran. According to reports from American Axios journalist Barak Ravid on the X social network, "U.S. and Israeli officials have stated that there were three waves of strikes. The first wave targeted Iran's missile defense system. The second and third waves targeted bases housing missiles and drones, as well as the companies that manufacture them." At the same time, Iran announced the cancellation of all flights until further notice, according to IRNA.

Earlier, the Israeli army declared that it was striking Iranian military objects in response to months of ongoing attacks. According to The Jerusalem Post, Israel is monitoring possible retaliatory strikes from Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Syria, and Lebanon.

Explosions were again heard in Tehran, and the air defense system is in operation, reported Tasnim agency. It was noted that the sounds of explosions previously heard near Tehran were related to the work of the air defense systems at three locations outside the capital. It has also been reported that Israel had planned the strikes on Iran in recent days but had postponed the attack due to weather conditions, as noted by Kan state television.

According to various reports, the Israeli government unanimously approved the response strike. "Conditions matured on the evening of October 25, and the offensive action commenced. The cabinet for political and security issues approved the strike via phone," as highlighted in the report. As reported by Sky News Arabia, Israel targeted a ballistic missile launch base in Iran on the night of October 26. According to the source, Israel is focusing its strikes on missile production facilities, drones, missile launch platforms, and air defense systems.

According to Israeli Channel 12, the Israeli Defense Forces have attacked dozens of strategic military targets in Iran, including missile and UAV production factories as well as missile launch bases.

The Israeli Defense Forces carried out a second strike against Iran, with Shiraz city being the target, reported The Jerusalem Post. It was also reported that explosions echoed in Karaj, a western suburb of Tehran. During the attack on Iran, Israeli Air Force used advanced American F-35 fighters, with a total of 100 combat aircraft reportedly involved. It was also noted that to "blind" the Iranian air defense systems, the Israeli army carried out preventive strikes on radars in Syria, which quickly evolved into attacks on Tehran and Karaj.

Israel targeted "vital military and power objects" within Iran, according to Al Jazeera, citing the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Specific details about the objects were not clarified. Additionally, the "Free Iran" Telegram channel published videos of explosions at an IRGC military base in Tehran.

Israel did not strike Iranian oil facilities or the Imam Khomeini and Mehrabad airports in Tehran, reported Lebanese Al Mayadeen television. According to its data, Israel attempted to attack three military bases in Tehran province, and the Iranian air defense responded to the assaults. As reported by IRNA agency, despite reports of explosions near the city, Imam Khomeini International Airport and Tehran's Mehrabad Airport continue to operate on schedule. FlightRadar indicates that civil air flights over Iran are ongoing despite Israeli strikes on the country.

The exact reasons for the explosions have not been disclosed. However, Tasnim agency previously reported, citing its sources, that they could be related to the work of air defense forces. There have been no inquiries related to incidents that would require rescue assistance in Tehran and its vicinity.

Earlier, the Israeli army announced that it was striking Iranian military targets in response to months of continuous attacks from the Iranian regime. According to SANA news agency, the Israeli military also struck military facilities located in southern and central Syria.

Israel has exclusively targeted military objectives in Iran and not nuclear or oil infrastructure, as stated by American CBS television citing its sources. The publication notes that "the Israeli attack was limited to military purposes." The source detailed that "the U.S. was warned about the strikes." According to NBC television, citing two high-ranking sources from Arab countries, targets for the Israeli strikes in Tehran could have included barracks and a weapons depot.
