An Israeli warplane came under the target of an Iranian surface-to-air missile during an operation inside Iran, both countries confirmed. The exact timing of the incident was not disclosed. Israel stated via Telegram that its crew followed standard procedures, the aircraft was unharmed, and the mission was completed as planned.

Tehran claimed responsibility for a drone strike near Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport, hitting a fuel tank and a refueling jet, which it said severely disrupted Israel’s military flight and fuel operations. Iran’s military and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the attacks would continue with full force until threats from Israel were eliminated.

Earlier, an American F-35 fighter jet was damaged by Iranian air defenses and forced to make an emergency landing, which Iranian officials described as a major success for their defense system.
