Israel says it struck Iranian missile facilities in Tehran
Israeli airstrikes destroyed Iranian missile launchers and trapped missiles underground, reducing Iran's ballistic missile threat and cutting launches to about 10 per day, officials said.
- On Tuesday, the Israeli Defence Forces reported that sustained airstrikes on Iran's ballistic missile array have trapped missiles underground by sealing storage tunnels, with more than 600 strike sorties executed against Iranian targets.
- Iran had planned synchronized missile launches to carry out heavy barrages, but with launch zones under repeated attack throughout the day, Iranian forces have struggled to fire regularly and coordinate salvos as originally intended.
- Dozens of commanders and soldiers in Iran's missile fire array have been killed, and Military Intelligence identified declining morale among Revolutionary Guard personnel, while General Effie Defrin said launch rates declined to an average of about 10 missiles daily from fewer than 100 on the first day.
- Iranian missiles continued striking Israel on Tuesday despite the degraded capacity, with a 100-kilogram warhead damaging three buildings in central Tel Aviv and at least a dozen waves of fire wounding seven people across southern Israel and the city.
- The Trump administration offered a 15-point ceasefire plan through Pakistan as the US-Israel war approaches one month, though Iran publicly rejected claims negotiations were underway, while the American military prepares around 1,000 troops from the 82nd Airborne Division for Middle East deployment.
