Israel confirmed it had struck numerous military sites during its retaliatory strikes on Iran on Saturday.
The attack was declared over by 5:45 a.m., just as the sun began rising over Tehran, according to public broadcaster KAN11.
The attack occurred in three major waves, US and Israeli officials said. The second and third waves targeted Iranian drone and missile production sites, hitting over 20 targets, according to Axios and the New York Times.
Iran told AFP that it had not received any reports of injuries from the strikes.
Defense Minister Yoav Gallant was directing the attacks from a secure complex in IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv, according to Israeli media.
"The IDF is currently attacking precise targets in Iran," IDF Spokesperson Daniel Hagari said in a statement. "This is in response to persisting attacks by the Iranian regime on the State of Israel.
A second wave of airstrikes was reported following blasts heard in Shiraz later on early Saturday morning.
