Israel pummeled Iranian targets with simultaneous airstrikes from roughly 200 fighter jets in what the Israeli military dubbed its largest ever military flyover in its history.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on Saturday published video of its airstrike on missile launchers in western Iran as Israel and the U.S. take part in a joint effort against Tehran.
The IDF said the fighter jets flew under the direction of IDF intelligence and the Israeli Air Force and executed an "extensive attack" against the Iranian regime's missile and defense systems in western and central Iran.
"This is the largest military flyover in the history of the Israeli Air Force (IAF), conducted following accurate planning and based on high-quality intelligence, while synchronizing hundreds of fighter jets at the same time," the IDF said.

Fighter jets dropped hundreds of munitions on about 500 targets, including aerial defense systems and missile launchers, attaining air superiority over Iran and severely degrading its offensive capabilities.
"The military flyover thwarted numerous threats to the IAF's fighter jets and to Israeli civilians," the IDF said, adding that the IAF continues to operate in Iran.
