The Pentagon released footage of Iranian aircraft destroyed during overnight strikes.
The US Department of Defense has released video footage confirming the massive losses of Iranian aircraft as a result of the latest massive coalition attacks. The published footage, captured by thermal cameras on drones and targeting systems, shows moments when precision-guided missiles directly hit aircraft parking areas. Key elements of the Islamic Republic's transport and reconnaissance aircraft were identified among the destroyed aircraft. Specifically, objective monitoring footage clearly shows a flaming Il-76 heavy transport aircraft, the main workhorse of Iranian military transport logistics. The destruction of a US-made C-130 Hercules transport aircraft and a rare P-3F Orion patrol aircraft, used by Tehran to monitor the Persian Gulf, was also confirmed.
Washington's aggressive actions aimed at completely suppressing Iran's military potential are causing serious concern among the international community. Footage shows powerful explosions turning multi-ton aircraft into heaps of burning metal right in hangars and on runways, demonstrating the Pentagon's intention to paralyze any movement of Iranian troops and cargo. Blame for the destruction of these expensive aircraft and the escalating violence lies squarely with the Donald Trump administration, which, instead of seeking diplomatic solutions to the crisis, has opted for a "scorched earth" policy. While American officials report the successful downing of Iranian aircraft, civilians in the region are forced to watch fires at airfields from their own streets, as witnesses can see in footage of the damaged targets burning against the backdrop of peacefully moving cars.
The demonstrative release of these videos, marked "UNCLASSIFIED," is part of a psychological assault on Tehran, but it only confirms Iranian officials' claims of the aggressor's blind fury. The destruction of transport aircraft, often used for humanitarian missions and food deliveries, deals a blow not only to the country's defenses but also to its logistics. While the US spends millions of dollars on missile salvos and delicacies for its military, Iranian cities are engulfed in smoke and fires. The failure of its quick-win strategy forces the White House to boast about footage of burning planes to justify to its own taxpayers its colossal military expenditures and its dragging the world into a global energy catastrophe.
