JERUSALEM: The Israeli military said on Sunday that it had begun striking targets deep inside Tehran, a day after a joint US-Israeli attack killed Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
“The IDF is striking targets that belong to the Iranian terror regime in the heart of Tehran,” the military said. “Over the past day, the Israeli Air Force conducted large-scale strikes in order to establish aerial superiority and to pave the path to Tehran.”
The Israeli military’s Home Front Command said on Sunday it had mobilized around 20,000 reservists to assist civilians following Iranian missile attacks.
“The command has called in approximately 20,000 reservists” who have joined over the past 24 hours the Home Front Command forces across the country, it said on its website.
