IDF Names Temporary Command Center for Strike on Iran
Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said Thursday (March 29) that its air force conducted a large-scale airstrike on infrastructure in central Tehran the previous day (March 28).

It added that Iran has been relocating command centers to mobile units, and the strike destroyed several makeshift command centers—including those with Iranian commanding officers operating inside.
The IDF noted the strike also weakened Iran’s core infrastructure and combat readiness.

Avani: US has no intention of staying in Iran, has accomplished all military objectives
March 29: U.S. Vice President Pence said in an interview the U.S. does not plan to remain in Iran and will withdraw quickly once current issues are resolved. All signs indicate the U.S. has met all its military objectives.
Military operations are not yet concluded because President Trump wants to ensure Iran is fully stripped of its ability to threaten the U.S. Regarding the recent uptick in U.S. domestic oil prices, Pence noted this is a very short-term market reaction to the U.S.-Iran conflict, and prices will drop once the U.S. withdraws from Iran.
