“The brilliant work of our armed forces was completely legal and legitimate. The Lebanese defense of the people of Gaza is also a legitimate and legal movement,” Khamenei said.

Did Iran Target Mossad Headquarters?

Iranian state media claimed that its missile attacks targeted two military bases of Israel and the headquarters of Mossad, Israel’s intelligence service.

Israel had earlier claimed that most of the missiles fired by Iran three days ago were intercepted.

Chief of the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Mohammad Bagheri, said in an interview with Press TV that the Nevatim air base, the Netzarim military facility, and the Tel Nof intelligence unit were targeted in the recent attack known as ‘Operation True Promise II.’

According to a report by the Tehran Times, the Nevatim air base is home to Israel’s F-35 fighter jets, which reportedly carried out airstrikes on Beirut on September 27, launching from this military installation.

The Iran military used hypersonic Fatah missiles to strike these sites, Iranian media stated.
