Military Airport in NW Iran Struck by Israeli Attack
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Zionist regime launched a fresh strike on a military airport in Iran’s northwestern city of Tabriz.
The attack took place at 12:30 pm local time on Friday.
Images released in the social networks show thick plumes of smoke rising into the sky from the airport near Tabriz.
The site that has been targeted is believed to be Shahid Fakuri military airbase that accommodates fighter aircraft.
The Israeli regime attacked a number of residential neighborhoods of Tehran and locations in other parts of Iran in the wee hours of Friday.
Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Hossein Baqeri, Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Major General Hossein Salami, Commander of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters Major General Gholam Ali Rashid, and at least six Iranian nuclear scientists were among the martyrs of the Israeli strikes on Friday morning.
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei has warned the Zionist regime that it will receive a severe punishment for the strike, saying, “With this crime, the Zionist regime has prepared for itself a bitter, painful fate, which it will definitely see.”
