IDF: 1,100 targets hit, five Iranian helicopters destroyed, objectives remain unchanged
In a statement this morning, the IDF spokesperson announced that 1,100 military components have been struck so far. This morning, an Israeli drone destroyed five Iranian helicopters attempting to intercept army aircraft. He reiterated that the primary objective remains the elimination of the existential threat to Israel. The war objectives in Gaza—freeing the hostages and overthrowing Hamas—remain a priority, alongside the strikes in Iran. The spokesperson also called on citizens not to become complacent: “The Home Front Command’s instructions save lives.”
Israel launched a forceful strike on Tehran overnight (Tuesday into Wednesday), targeting military and government sites. Earlier in the day, air raid sirens were activated in the Galilee amid concerns of a potential hostile aircraft intrusion. Global attention is now focused on the United States and President Donald Trump, as the world awaits his decision on whether the U.S. will enter the conflict.
Stay Awake. Keep Watch.
