IDF Releases War Statistics as US Demands Nuclear Cuts From Iran
The IDF released war statistics marking three years of conflict, detailing 100,000 targets struck and massive rocket fire, while US officials pressed Iran on nuclear reductions.
The Houthis claimed responsibility for an attack on a Saudi base housing ballistic missiles and drones, according to recent updates. Meanwhile, marking three years since the outbreak of the war, the IDF released a comprehensive list of senior commanders eliminated during the conflict alongside operational achievements.
Since the beginning of the war, approximately 100,000 targets have been attacked across various sectors, including 65,000 in the Gaza Strip. Additionally, over 31,500 missiles and rockets have been fired toward Israel, with about 10,200 originating from the Gaza Strip and roughly 20,000 from Lebanon. Regarding reserve duty, the IDF reported that the reserve force grew by approximately 36% since the war began, some 22,000 reservists were reinstated from exemptions, and the average reserve service per combat soldier reached 80 to 100 days this year.
In international developments, US Vice President JD Vance stated in an interview with Reuters that Iran will be required to make a "significant" reduction in its uranium enrichment capabilities as a condition for an agreement to end hostilities. Vance emphasized that Washington will not settle for promises of future reductions and demands concrete nuclear steps. He added that the US and Iran exchanged proposals regarding the Strait of Hormuz, but President Donald Trump rejected Tehran's latest offer, warning that military activity could escalate.
Further regional security incidents included Houthi missile launches targeting Aden International Airport in Yemen with no casualties reported. Additionally, British media reported that the Omani pilot who attempted to hijack a passenger plane heading to Israel received professional flight training in the UK.
