In a major revelation regarding the Roaring Lion operation in Iran, a senior Israeli Air Force official has confirmed that precision strikes have killed thousands of Iranian soldiers in recent days.
Colonel “Aleph,” the commander of the Ramat David Airbase, stated that the IAF has established total air superiority, allowing fighter jets to strike hundreds of targets across Iran with full force.
Military reports and intelligence suggest the bulk of these casualties occurred during high-intensity strikes on strategic military infrastructure, most notably within massive military compounds in eastern Tehran where a high concentration of forces was stationed.
The IAF also targeted the IRGC’s Tharallah Headquarters and the Vali Asr Barracks, which serve as central hubs for the regime’s internal security and military operations.
Major ballistic missile and air defense bases in Khorgo, Isfahan, and Khorramabad were heavily bombarded to neutralize launch capabilities, likely resulting in significant losses among the specialized personnel manning those facilities.
Beyond the borders of Iran, the aerial campaign extended to Quds Force liaison units in Lebanon and Syria to systematically sever the regional terror axis.
The immense scale of these losses is attributed to Operation Roaring Lion, a joint campaign that utilized unprecedented aerial power to dismantle the enemy’s chain of command.
In the opening minute of the campaign, surgical decapitation strikes reportedly eliminated forty senior commanders who were gathered at sensitive sites in the capital.
Over two hundred fighter jets dropped approximately four thousand munitions in the first few days, targeting everything from underground bunkers to active command centers.
IAF Commander Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar emphasized that these strikes were guided by precise intelligence, allowing the military to hit manned facilities with devastating accuracy.
Furthermore, Maj. Gen. Bar hinted at extraordinary missions carried out by elite special units like Shaldag deep inside Iranian territory to designate targets and perform covert reconnaissance.
The commander concluded that these historic operations have fundamentally reshaped the regional landscape and dismantled decades of Iranian military investment.
