IDF acknowledges some Iranian missiles hit airbases, says no major damage caused

The Israeli military on Wednesday acknowledged that some of its airbases were hit in Iran’s massive ballistic missile attack on the country a night earlier, but stressed that no harm was caused to the functioning of the Israeli Air Force.

The missile impacts damaged office buildings and other maintenance areas in the bases, according to the military.

All of the missile impacts in the airbases were deemed by the military as “ineffective,” meaning that no harm was caused to the continuous operations of the IAF.

The military reported no damage caused to fighter jets, drones, other aircraft, munitions, and critical infrastructure.

Highlighting the ineffectiveness of the Iranian attack, which consisted of a massive salvo of more than 180 ballistic missiles fired at Israel, the military noted that the IAF continued its operations in the following hours, including major strikes against Hezbollah in Beirut, support for ground forces in southern Lebanon, and strikes in Gaza.
