June 16, 2025, Jerusalem The Israeli army announced on Monday that it had destroyed a third of Iran’s surface-to-surface missile launchers. The operations that began on Friday have severely damaged Iran’s military infrastructure, raising tensions in the region. According to details of the incident, more than 120 missile launchers were targeted, a third of Iran’s total launchers, according to Israeli army spokesman Brigadier General Effie Differin. Overnight, 50 warplanes destroyed missile storage sites and launchers in central Iran, where more than 20 missiles were in the preparation phase. Differin claimed that Israel has complete air superiority over the skies of Tehran. According to a military official, the attacks halved Iran’s missile firing capacity, and only less than 50 missiles were fired towards Israel. Iran has targeted Israeli cities in retaliatory attacks, but the damage has been limited. Conclusion Israel's aggressive actions have weakened Iran's military capability, but the conflict could further destabilize the region. The international community needs to avoid war through diplomatic efforts. The risk must be reduced. (Reference: Al Arabiya English, Dawn News Urdu)
