On Friday, March 6, fifty Israeli warplanes targeted a subterranean shelter intended for the supreme leader, located in the heart of Tehran, unleashing one hundred aerial explosives on the installation.
This information comes from the Israel Defense Forces, as reported by Sky News.
The IDF stated that the mission took place earlier today in downtown Tehran, with the refuge situated beneath the Iranian regime’s command hub. This hub spans several streets and features “numerous access points and conference halls for prominent members of the Iranian terrorist regime.”
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, was neutralized during the initial US-Israeli assaults last Saturday.
“Khamenei was taken out before he could make use of the shelter during Operation Roaring Lion, yet the facility remained in service for top Iranian government representatives,” the Israel Defense Forces conveyed in a statement.
It’s been noted that the Israeli military launched multiple strikes against the Iranian “command center” in Tehran throughout the course of the conflict.
