The Iranian Air Force (IRIAF) has been active over Tehran, according to local sources cited by Geopolitics Watch. No details are yet available on the type of aircraft, their mission, or whether any engagement has occurred. The activity follows a pattern of heightened IRIAF operations and air defense alerts across Iranian cities in recent days.
Local sources inform Geopolitics Watch that Iranian Air Force (IRIAF) aviation is active over Tehran at this hour (17:57 Jerusalem). The nature of the activity — whether combat air patrols, interception sorties, or routine readiness — is not yet specified. No reports of interceptions, detonations, or strikes have accompanied the initial notification.
This report is the latest in a sequence of IRIAF activity across multiple Iranian cities during the current US-led and Israeli campaign against Iranian infrastructure. As The Zioneer has reported over recent days, fighter jet and air defense activations have been observed over Tabriz, Qom, and Isfahan, including F-14 Tomcat operations and a scramble over Tehran itself. The present report does not indicate whether it is a continuation of those operations or a new occurrence.
The source is a single open outlet — Geopolitics Watch, a security monitoring account — and the report remains unverified by official Iranian or Western channels. No further details about the aircraft type, originating base, or specific mission are available at this stage.
