Such a fight took place after 40 years
According to the Israeli Air Force, for the first time in nearly 40 years, it has engaged in direct air combat with a piloted aircraft. This incident is being considered an important military success for Israel. Israel has also released an audio clip. In this, Tomer Bar, who is the commander of the Israeli Air Force, is heard talking to an F-35I pilot.
The audio said, ‘This historic success in the skies of Tehran shows the strength of the Israeli Air Force and your determination. We are proud of you. Return safely, the next mission is waiting for you.
Claim of attack on several targets in Iran
The Israeli army said on Thursday that it attacked several places in Iran. These include a security command center in Tehran and a missile facility in Isfahan. Israel says that an underground base in Tehran where ballistic missiles were kept was also targeted. Apart from this, many missile launch sites were also destroyed.
How did the Israel-Iran war start?
This war in the Middle East started when Israel and America attacked Iran last Saturday. Iran’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei was killed in these attacks. After this, Iran retaliated by launching missile and drone attacks on American military bases in Israel and Gulf countries.
The war spread to Asia
This conflict has now spread to Asia. On Wednesday, America sank the Iranian warship IRIS Dena near the coast of Sri Lanka. About 80 people died in this attack. This was the same ship which had come on a friendly visit to India some time ago.
