Israeli fighter jets have destroyed three Iranian F-14s in the latest wave of airstrikes targeting central Iran, according to the IDF.
“Israeli Air Force fighter jets are currently attacking military infrastructure in central Iran,” he added.
Around 60 Israeli Air Force jets took part in the operation earlier this evening, according to the IDF.
An official statement from the military said IAF assets targeted three Iranian F-14 fighter jets on the ground, along with other military infrastructure in the area. Simultaneously, a separate wave of strikes near the southwestern city of Ahvaz hit missile launchers, radar systems, and other strategic installations. The IDF said 30 IAF jets struck dozens of targets in the Ahvaz sector, using over 50 munitions under military intelligence direction.
These U.S.-supplied F-14s, delivered before Iran’s 1979 revolution, are among the last still in service. Two others were reportedly destroyed last week in an earlier Israeli strike on Tehran.
Iranian state media acknowledged explosions in Ahvaz and the port city of Mahshahr in Khuzestan Province, confirming that air defense systems were activated. Fars News Agency cited an aerial threat but did not confirm any casualties.
