The Israeli military said Tuesday its forces struck several locations in western Iran, hitting "dozens" of missile launchers as the arch-foes traded fire for a fifth straight day.
"A short while ago, the Israeli air force completed a series of strikes in western Iran," a military statement said. "As part of the strikes, a number of sites and dozens of surface-to-surface missile launchers were struck."
The Israeli military said earlier Tuesday that it killed senior Iranian commander Ali Shadmani in an overnight strike on a command center in the heart of Tehran — just four days after his predecessor, Gholam Ali Rashid, was killed in a similar Israeli raid.
It also said it had targeted multiple missile and drone sites in western Iran overnight, including infrastructure, launchers and storage facilities, with black-and-white footage showing some of them exploding.
Iranian media reported two explosions in the western city of Tabriz.
Despite mounting calls to de-escalate, neither side has backed off from the blitz that began Friday, when Israel launched an unprecedented aerial campaign targeting Iranian nuclear and military facilities.
