The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has revealed it has bombed over 1,100 targets in Iran.

IDF stated this on Tuesday, explaining that the attacks have been going on since Friday as part of its ongoing military campaign against Iran, aimed at crippling Tehran’s nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities.

IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin, at a press conference, said Israel is “operating systematically to neutralize the nuclear threat,” adding that recent strikes are “deepening the significant damage” inflicted on Iran’s missile launchers, air defense systems, and other strategic infrastructure.

The military also released aerial footage showing precision strikes on various Iranian military installations, including missile silos, radar systems, and command centers.

The IDF said many of the targeted facilities were linked to Iran’s ballistic missile program and its suspected nuclear weapons development, as well as assets supporting proxy groups like Hezbollah and the Houthis.

The statement comes amid heightened tensions across the region following Israel’s June 13 operation that killed several high-ranking Iranian generals and nuclear scientists.

In the aftermath, Tehran vowed to retaliate, while Israel has signaled it will continue its operations “until Iran’s military threat is neutralized.”

Photos from Tehran show portraits of slain Iranian commanders displayed above city roads, with smoke rising from bombed facilities, including a major oil refinery in southern Tehran that was hit in a strike on June 15.

The Israeli government has described the campaign as defensive and preemptive, while Iran has condemned it as aggression and vowed to respond “without mercy.”
