For underground bunkers, the GBU-28 is the munition of choice.
The F-15I Ra'am is certainly capable of employing GBU-28s.

I thought Russia didn’t have any deviants? Humm
Israel is claiming, through various intel bits, that Nezie boy is in pieces.
“Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been transferred to a secure location inside the country with heightened security measures in place, two regional officials briefed by Tehran told Reuters.
The sources said Iran was in constant contact with Lebanon’s Hezbollah and other regional proxy groups to determine the next step after Israel announced that it had killed Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in a strike on south Beirut on Friday.”
80 Bombs.
“Israel Tracked Nasrallah for Months Before Assassination, Officials Say”
“Israeli leaders had been aware of Hassan Nasrallah’s whereabouts for months and decided to strike him this past week because they believed they had only a short window of opportunity before the Hezbollah leader would disappear to a different location, according to three senior Israeli defense officials.
Two of the officials said that more than 80 bombs were dropped over a period of several minutes to kill him. They did not confirm the weight or make of the bombs.
Hezbollah operatives found and identified Mr. Nasrallah’s body early Saturday, along with that of a top Hezbollah military commander, Ali Karaki, according to the officials, who cited intelligence obtained from inside Lebanon. All three officials spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive matter.”
“As Hezbollah Pursued a Limited War, Israel Went for a Knockout”
“Weeks after Hamas launched the surprise attack on Israel that started the Gaza war last October, Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, laid out his group’s approach to the war.
Speaking by video link from a secret location, he said that Hezbollah sought to strike a balance between launching cross-border attacks on Israel in support of Hamas and avoiding an all-out war.
“Some in Lebanon say that we are taking a risk,” he said. “But this risk is part of a beneficial, correct calculation.”
That calculation has failed dramatically over the last two weeks, as Israel has launched an escalating series of attacks on the group. The campaign has already incapacitated thousands of rank-and-file Hezbollah members by blowing up their electronic devices and killed many of the group’s senior leaders in airstrikes.”

Very unfortunate.
“Before the Ukrainian attack on the 23rd Arsenal, it had received a total of 94 railcars with SAMs from the 1562nd Anti-aircraft Repair and Technical Base in Belarus
According to @belzhd_live, this was the largest transfer of munitions from Belarus to Russia in ‘24”

“Additional transfers were reportedly planned but have been put on hold due to the Ukrainian strikes.”

Only 38 days until Trump ends this war (”24 hours after election day”).
Its an ‘Easy Deal’.
