IAF striking in Iran

THE INTEL SUMMARY

At 3:00 AM on April 8, 2026, the guns fell silent. Operation "Lion’s Roar" (Sha’agat Ha’ari) has reached a critical turning point. While the IDF remains at the highest level of alertness, and the war with Iran possibly winding down (at least for now), the data from the last 40 days reveals a military campaign of unprecedented proportions, targeting the "Head of the Snake" in Tehran while simultaneously dismantling the "Shield of Fire" in Lebanon.

THE DASHBOARD: FINAL DATA POINTS

The following figures represent the verified impact of the operation as of the ceasefire entry:

1. Strategic Strikes & Targets

  • 25 Senior Leaders: The number of high-ranking officials eliminated, including the historic strike on the Iranian Supreme Leadership.
