The IDF said Thursday it eliminated Makram Atimi, commander of a central Iranian ballistic missile unit, in a precise airstrike in the Kermanshah area.
The military said Atimi was responsible for dozens of missile launches toward Israel.
In a separate strike, the military said it also killed several battalion commanders from the same unit, which it said was behind repeated launches from northwestern Iran.
The IDF said the operations are part of an ongoing effort to degrade Iran’s missile capabilities and command structure.
Separately, a US airstrike on Thursday targeted a major highway bridge connecting Tehran to the nearby city of Karaj, with a source familiar with the details telling The Jerusalem Post that the strike was intended to disrupt Iranian supply routes used to transport missile and drone components.
The route was reportedly part of a logistical network moving critical parts to launch units responsible for attacks targeting US forces and Israel.
According to the source, the objective was to sever a central artery used to sustain Iran’s aerial and missile operations, highlighting a broader effort to degrade its operational capabilities.

Hmmm. Glad to see it destroyed/damaged, yet I’ve read elsewhere the bridge wasn’t even open yet...?
Iranian government job applicant: “How come the section in this job application about retirement pensions is blank?”
He went out with a bang!
Reporter asking at White House: “How many weeks more before the end of this Iranian war?”
“We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it unless we already blew it up.”
A $400 million bridge. A huge financial setback for a country with 1/72th of the GDP of the US.

Good x2 👍👍
When one considers the number of strike aircraft per day and number of sorties per day and aircraft loadout and targeting accuracy and munitions reliability, it seems to me the war needs to go on at least another month at the current rate to achieve a level of confidence that the military and political targets have been taken out and the ability to rapidly rebuild them has also been taken out.
This means Iran's heavy industry and transport infrastructure has to be taken out.
All of that is true, but it’s a lot of empty desert, too.
