Kymmenet israelilaiset hävittäjät lensivät maanantaina kohti Iranin rajaa laajassa operaatiossa, jonka tarkoituksena oli osoittaa sotilaallista voimaa ja pelotella Teherania, Axios raportoi israelilaisiin ja yhdysvaltalaisiin viranomaisiin viitaten. Hävittäjät ja ilmatankkauskoneet lensivät yli 800 mailia Syyrian ja Irakin ilmatilan kautta ennen kuin kääntyivät takaisin Iranin lähellä. Israelin kerrotaan ilmoittaneen Washingtonille etukäteen ja kuvailleen operaatiota harjoitukseksi, jolla pyrittiin estämään Iranin hyökkäys ennen Israelin 27. lokakuuta pidettäviä vaaleja. Joidenkin yhdysvaltalaisten lähteiden mukaan Israel saattoi toivoa Iranin ampuvan koneita kohti, mikä voisi tarjota perusteen Israelin iskuille.
