One of the sites targeted in Israel’s overnight airstrikes was the S-300 air defense of Imam Khomeini International Airport near Tehran, according to two Iranian officials quoted by The New York Times.
Israel reportedly targeted a Russian-made S-300 air defense system near Iran’s Natanz nuclear site in April.
At least three Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps missile bases were targeted in the strikes, according to the unnamed officials, one of whom is a member of the IRGC.
Israeli drones also targeted the secretive Parchin military base on the outskirts of Tehran in this morning’s strikes, the report adds, citing the officials as saying that one hit the site while others were downed.
In 2022, an engineer was killed and another employee injured in an apparent drone attack on the Parchin military complex.
