Airstrikes

Also on Wednesday, the IDF conducted a strike in northern Gaza, killing Hamas sniper Abdullah Baha al-Din Razak Al-Souti.

"When you have a ceasefire and Iran is basically violating the ceasefire, I think it is totally crucial that the US forcefully react," said NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.

According to the IDF statement, the four terrorists had been advancing attacks against IDF troops operating in the strip.

Information Minister Attaullah Tarar said on social media platform X the action was launched in response to multiple terrorist attacks across the country, the report said.

The US had pressured Israel to adhere to a real ceasefire with Hezbollah. In the past, the ceasefires were only in name, and strikes continued against one another.

Col. S. commands "Nahalat Binyamin," the codename for the Israeli Air Force unit that plans and builds all of the Air Force's strike operations across the Middle East and, when necessary, anywhere.

According to CENTCOM, the US struck Iranian air defense, ground control stations, and surveillance radar sites near the Strait of Hormuz with precise munitions from US Air Force and Navy fighter jets.

Iran fired more than 20 ballistic missiles at Israel, as the IDF warned the renewed conflict could last several days and intensify further.

The Saudi attacks, not previously reported, mark the first time that the kingdom is known to have directly carried out military action on Iranian soil and show it is becoming much bolder.

In response to additional rocket fire near IDF soldiers, the IDF carried out strikes on over 85 Hezbollah sites, including weapon storage facilities and production sites.
