[“Iranian armed forces appeared blind, deaf, and mute in the face of Israel's attack”]

On June 13th, according to a military observer from Bild, the Iranian armed forces appeared blind, deaf, and mute in the face of Israel's attack. The Israeli Air Force deployed approximately 200 aircraft (F-35, F-16, and F-15) in Iran to strike around 100 targets without losing any aircraft. Moreover, bombers even approached within 50 kilometers of the targets to drop precision-guided bombs.

However, the Iranian air defense system only reacted at one base. Hundreds of Iranian officers and pilots did not even know that the bombing had begun. Bild speculates that this may indicate that Israel likely launched large-scale cyber attacks and electronic warfare from the moment the aircraft took off.

Evidently, Israel paralyzed Iran's radar for several hours through electronic warfare means. The Iranian Air Force aircraft that took off were unable to locate targets. Additionally, Israel likely cut off communications between Iran's various air defense units as well as private communication systems — including mobile phones, radios, and pagers.

According to Reuters, Israel has eliminated at least 20 senior Iranian commanders, including Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh and several commanders of the drone force and air defense force.

It is worth noting that the General Hajizadeh who died in this attack was the commander of the Aerospace Forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. He had a connection with Ukraine — three years ago, he insisted that the Ukraine-bound Malaysia Airlines flight PS752 from Tehran “crashed due to technical failure,” rather than being shot down by the Revolutionary Guards' air defense system.

This shows that Israel's operation not only avenged the victims of the Malaysia Airlines incident but also settled accounts with General Hajizadeh's other crimes.

Currently, the Israeli Defense Forces continue to launch airstrikes on Iran to prevent it from organizing retaliatory strikes.

The Israeli military stated that, in the past few hours, guided by intelligence departments, fighter jets of the Air Force struck multiple surface-to-surface missiles of the Iranian regime.
