Iranian mobile missile launchers destroyed in strikes – US

The United States Central Command has announced that several Iranian mobile missile launchers were destroyed during recent military strikes. In a message shared on social media late Wednesday, the command said the operations are part of ongoing efforts to neutralize missile threats in the region.

According to the command, the targeted launchers were capable of being moved quickly and used to launch attacks. The military said it is actively identifying and destroying these systems with what it described as “lethal precision” to reduce potential threats.

Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces also released footage showing a strike on a ballistic missile launcher believed to belong to Iran. The military said the launcher was destroyed in the city of Qom, located about 80 miles south of Tehran.

Another strike reportedly targeted an Iranian defense system in Isfahan, around 270 miles south of Tehran. Israeli officials claimed the missile launcher that was hit had been prepared for a possible attack toward Israel before it was destroyed.
