IDF Spokesperson, Brig. Gen. Efi Defrin, delivered a statement, saying that "Iranian regime forces have been pushed to the center of the country thanks to Air Force strikes." He added that "dozens of Air Force aircraft are continuously patrolling the skies over Isfahan, identifying threats in real time and attacking. Several hours ago, about 60 fighter jets launched a wide-scale attack wave deep into Iran. We struck 12 underground launch sites in the Tehran area."
