Israeli Operation Leads to Elimination of Iranian Air Force Command
Critical Strike on Iranian Command
A senior security official has revealed that Israel executed a strategic operation resulting in the elimination of top commanders of the Iranian Air Force. This operation, which targeted a gathering of commanders from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), reportedly involved intricate tactics to draw them into a meeting at a subterranean command center. Among those killed was Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the head of the IRGC’s aerospace division.
The Israeli official disclosed to Fox News that the country undertook specific actions to gain intelligence and influence the behavior of the IRGC leadership. “We executed certain operations that helped us learn more about them, and we used that information to affect their actions,” said the unnamed source. He emphasized that they were aware these actions would lead to a meeting which would ultimately be attacked.
US Support and Reaction
Shortly after the Israeli operations were confirmed, U.S. President Donald Trump publicly expressed support for Israel’s decisive action. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, he noted that the U.S. had advanced knowledge of the impending attack. When questistartd about the nature of the U.S. notification, he stated, “There was no prior warning; we knew what was happening.”
Trump referred to the operation as a “highly successful attack,” mentioning that he had communicated with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding the situation. He further commented on the potential impact of the attack, stating, “I believe it will ultimately be great for the markets because it eliminates the Iranian nuclear threat.”
U.S. Military Readiness
In response to the unfolding situation, U.S. officials reported that the military is adjusting its naval presence in the region. The U.S. Navy has ordered the destroyer USS Thomas Hudner to move towards the eastern Mediterranean as a precaution against possible Iranian retaliation. Additional vessels are also being repositistartd to ensure readiness should the White House deem it necessary.
Broader Implications
The Israeli airstrike has sparked discussions regarding its potential implications for wider regional stability, with some U.S. sources suggesting that a change in the Iranian regime might be a long-term objective of Israel’s actions. While no official intelligence indicates this as Israel’s primary goal for the operation, there are indications that some U.S. officials believe Israel may see this as an opportunity for regime change in Tehran.
As tensions continue to rise, the implications of the Israeli operation will be closely monitored, particularly concerning potential responses from Iran and the international community’s reaction to Israel’s military actions
