Israel sent 200 fighter jets to conduct its operation in Iran and has dropped more than 330 different types of munitions so far, Israeli military spokesman Effie Defrin said.

Earlier, Iran launched over 100 missiles targeting Israeli sites, most of which were intercepted by Israel's air defence systems. However, a second wave of missile strikes followed, with some missiles successfully hitting cities within Israel.

Iran has claimed it shot down two Israeli fighter jets amid a wave of retaliatory strikes between the two countries. One of the pilots, a woman, was reportedly captured, according to Iranian state-linked media.
