More than 1,900 Iranian soldiers and commanders have been killed in Israeli strikes in Iran since the start of the war, IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin says in a press statement.
He says thousands more have been wounded.
“We have many more targets; it is an ongoing effort, and we are deepening the blows to all levels of the regime,” he says.
