US and Israel attacking Iran at record pace', war monitor says

"Airwars noted that US and Israeli officials said they struck about 4,000 targets across Iran in the first four days of their offensive, which began on Saturday. In 100 hours, the US and Israel declared hitting more targets in Iran than in the first six months of the US-led Coalition's bombing campaign against the so-called Islamic State."

"In a report published on Friday, Airwars said the initial days of the US-Israeli assault against Iran resulted in significantly more targets [hit] per day than any campaign in recent decades. That includes Israel's genocidal war against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, which began in October 2023, as well as the US-led campaign against ISIS (ISIL) in Iraq and Syria in 2014."

Research group Airwars reports that the initial US-Israeli assault on Iran achieved an unprecedented strike rate compared to recent military campaigns. In approximately 100 hours, the US and Israel struck around 4,000 targets across Iran, exceeding the number of targets hit during the first six months of the US-led Coalition's bombing campaign against ISIS in Iraq and Syria. This pace significantly surpasses Israel's military operations in Gaza, which began in October 2023. US and Israeli officials have committed to continuing their offensive operations. The analysis highlights that while military campaigns vary in scope and reporting, the Iran campaign represents an exceptionally intensive air war by contemporary standards.
