Jerusalem, 30 March, 2026 (TPS-IL) — As part of the waves of air strikes completed yesterday (Sun.), the Israel Air Force hit a site where the Iranian regime’s air defense systems were installed near the Caspian Sea in northern Iran.

The site was concealed within a forested area, more than 1,600 kilometers (1,000 miles) from the territory of the State of Israel.

The defense systems attacked at the site posed a threat to Air Force aircraft, and striking them preserves and even further expands the Air Force’s air superiority in Iranian airspace, said the IDF (Israel Defense Forces).
