Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz has said that the Israeli army has “crossed the 15,000-munitions threshold” in Iran since the US-Israeli war on Iran began on February 28, Al Jazeera reports.

That is four times more than the 12-day hostilities in June last year, the minister was quoted as saying in a joint briefing with Eyal Zamir, the Israeli army chief of staff.

Katz said that Tel Aviv has approved a new series of targets for strikes in Iran and Lebanon.
