In Operation Lion's Raw, the Israeli Air Force reports it has dropped 65-0 bombs over the past week. A figure that far exceeds the 45-0 bombs dropped during June 2025's 12-day war. The tally is said to be amplified by US air operations, with the American forces striking over 3,000 targets.

In the same wave of action, Israel announced the destruction of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corpsquids' force headquarters. A strike described as delivering a severe blow to a unit long accused of destabilizing the region and backing proxy networks. The quid's force has been tied to campaigns intended to extend influence around Israel and to shape regional dynamics. A force whose leadership has shifted since the 2020 killing of Qasim Soleimani. Though Esmeral Khani remains a central figure directing operations in direct Israeli-run clashes. Israeli Air Force strikes targeted substantial Iranian oil resources in the Tehran region that are described as directly connected to Iran's military industrial complex. Sources emphasized the military nature of the sites, while it remained unclear how distinctions would be drawn between individual oil sites. And opposition reports suggested that as many as 30 sites could be under attack.

2:06In the same context, Prime Minister Netanyahu said Israel and the United States are nearing total control of Iranian airspace. Noting that the partnership with the US comes with an understanding of the danger Iran poses to both Israel and the wider international community. He asserted that the steps taken reflect a shift in the regional balance and a commitment to act decisively. In US military role, Washington has turned to Ukraine for help, as Iranian drone attacks threatened Gulf and US bases. Keif has deployed experts and shared counter drone technology developed during Russia's war, including interceptor drones and acoustic sensors. As Iran launches thousands of shard drones and could field up to 5,000 in the first month of fighting. In regional impacts, authorities report further sirens in the north. And a casualty has been reported from Shrapnel in the Galilee, with guidance issued to residents to prepare for defense as the situation evolves. In uplifting news, pilots and special operations forces are increasingly using modifinal to stay sharp on long missions.
