IDF Spokesperson Effie Defrin Details Ongoing Airstrikes in Iran and Combat Operations on Multiple Fronts

Israeli Defense Forces Spokesperson Effie Defrin provided an update on Operation Rising Lion, stressing continued operations on multiple fronts alongside the campaign against Iran. The IDF mourned Staff Sergeant First Class Stav H., killed in Gaza today. In the last 24 hours, three major airstrike waves targeted Iran’s military infrastructure. The first wave involved about 50 jets striking nearly 40 targets near Tehran, including a centrifuge plant critical to uranium enrichment and a missile factory supplying Hezbollah. The second wave struck over 20 additional military and security targets in Tehran, hitting missile production sites covering engines, navigation, and assembly lines—missiles intended for attacks on Israel. The third wave is underway in western Iran, focusing on dismantling strategic capabilities. The IDF remains determined to neutralize Iran’s nuclear and missile threats and protect Israel’s security.
