The Israeli military said Monday it carried out overnight strikes on three airports in Tehran, targeting several Iranian planes and helicopters.

Dozens of Israeli fighter jets struck aircraft and other military infrastructure at Bahram Airport, Mehrabad Airport and Azmayesh Airport in Tehran, the military said, The Caspian Post reports, citing foreign media.

It described Mehrabad Airport, which has been hit several times before in the ongoing war, as a hub used by the Iran Revolutionary Guards' Quds Force to transfer weapons and funds to allied groups in the region.

The Israeli military said the strikes were part of efforts aimed at "degrading the Iranian Air Force and the IRGC air force at airports in Tehran".
