Dussintals israeliska stridsflygplan flög på måndagen mot Irans gräns i en storskalig operation avsedd att visa militär styrka och avskräcka Teheran, rapporterade Axios med hänvisning till israeliska och amerikanska tjänstemän. Stridsflygplan och tankningsflygplan flög mer än 800 miles genom syriskt och irakiskt luftrum innan de vände tillbaka nära Iran.
