▲Israeli army announces destruction of Khamenei’s aircraft.
The Israel Defense Forces announced that the Israeli Air Force overnight attacked Tehran’s airport, successfully destroying the aircraft used by Iran’s late Supreme Leader Khamenei.
According to reports from the “Jerusalem Post”, the Israeli Defense Forces launched a recent airstrike targeting Tehran’s Mehrabad Airport, successfully destroying Khamenei’s aircraft, which had long been used by Khamenei and Iranian senior officials for military procurement tasks and maintained relations with axis countries through domestic and international flight management.
The Israeli military emphasized that destroying this “strategic asset” would severely undermine the “coordination capabilities” of Iran and its proxy organizations, while also impacting its military strength and the regime’s recovery ability.
In fact, the Israeli Air Force also targeted the same airport earlier in March, destroying 16 aircraft used by the Quds Force. According to Israeli military intelligence, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard’s Quds Force has been using these aircraft to transport weapons and cash to proxy terrorist organizations, with Hezbollah being the primary beneficiary.
The Israeli military pointed out that Iran had attempted to move some aircraft to the retired aircraft storage area in an effort to complicate identification by Israel, but ultimately, they couldn’t evade the Israeli military’s precise strike.
