For three hours, the Israeli Air Force dominated Iranian airspace, leaving Iran exposed, helpless and unable to defend itself. The Israeli operation had been meticulously planned over a period of years. Israeli Air Force aircraft attacked the targets in several waves: first, the Iranian S-300 batteries and the infrastructure of the S-400 system that was to be deployed in the future were destroyed. These are sophisticated air defense systems that Russia had sold to Iran.

Israel has destroyed the ballistic missile production facilities, the Iranian counterpart to the Israeli “Rafael” factories. This is a strategic strike that deprives Iran of the ability to produce new missiles. It is now left with only its existing missile stocks.

If you add to that the strike against the air defense systems, which leaves Tehran defenseless, then everyone understands the message: If Iran attacks, it risks an even stronger strike without being able to defend itself. “We will destroy anything we want. They are completely exposed,” says an Israeli source familiar with the details.
