BIG DEVELOPMENT!
Loitering munition drones now appear to be operating over Tehran.
More than 10 checkpoints and several moving IRGC military vehicles across various areas of Tehran have been targeted and destroyed in drone strikes. (@etelaf10)
This type of weapon can loiter over an area, wait for targets to appear, and then strike, which becomes far easier once enemy air-defense systems are degraded or suppressed.

BREAKING: Video recorded in Tehran minutes ago shows the aftermath of a precise drone strike by the Israeli Air Force eliminating a convoy of the security forces of the Islamic regime of Iran on Chamran Highway.
You can see fire trucks at the scene trying to put out the fire from the burned vehicles.
