"More than 4,000 Targets Hit, over 10,000 Terror Components Struck": IDF Claims Targets Struck in Iran

CENTCOM said the campaign has hit more than 12,300 targets and damaged or destroyed over 155 Iranian naval vessels.

  • On Thursday, April 2, 2026, the U.S. military reported striking more than 12,300 Iranian targets during the month-long campaign, as President Donald Trump declared Iran is "essentially... no longer a threat."
  • The joint Israel-U.S. military operation, launched about a month ago, aims to weaken the "Iranian terror regime" and its network of proxies, the Israel Defence Forces stated.
  • Providing operational details, the IDF said forces carried out more than 800 strike sorties, dropping approximately 16,000 munitions across Iran, while U.S. forces damaged or destroyed more than 155 Iranian naval vessels.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated the combined effort is "systematically crushing" the Tehran government, while the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed the Strait of Hormuz remains "decisively and firmly under the control" of its navy.
  • Military strikes will continue for the next two or three weeks, President Trump announced, while expressing "cautious optimism" that current Iranian leadership may become "less radical and much more reasonable" to deal with.
