Israel’s military has said it is conducting strikes on “military infrastructure” in Iran’s southwest, on the ninth day of the war sparked by Israel’s attack, AFP reports.

“Fighter jets are currently striking military infrastructure in southwestern Iran,” the military said in a statement.

Another statement from the Israeli military, quoting the Hatzerim base commander, reads: “We are hitting enemy missiles, thereby reducing the scope of launches towards the State of Israel - the people of Israel are showing resilience and giving us the spirit needed to complete the mission.”
