The IDF says it targeted the IRGC Air Force headquarters in Iran during wide-scale strikes on dozens of regime military sites. According to the IDF, the facility served as the main command-and-control center directing Iran’s ballistic missile operations, UAV array, and other air force units.

The headquarters was also responsible for building the operational picture and planning missile attacks against Israel and countries in the region. The strike is part of Israel’s broader effort to dismantle Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities and disrupt its ability to coordinate attacks.
