(By Morgan Sweeney | The Center Square) – American and Israeli forces have begun taking control of Iranian airspace, and in a few days, it will be uncontested airspace, according to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
“Complete control” over Iranian skies will allow American and Israeli air power to complete their missions of destroying Iran’s defense industrial base and eliminating Iranian leadership affiliated with the weakened regime, uncontested, Hegseth said at a Wednesday press briefing.
“We will fly all day, all night, day and night,” Hegseth said, “until we decide it’s over and Iran will be able to do nothing about it.”
Iran’s military power is being “decimated,” the War secretary said, and joint forces have already destroyed the Iranian Air Force and its navy.
Hegseth said the U.S. was “winning decisively, devastatingly, and without mercy” just days into its joint military campaign with Israel and that the U.S. is “just getting started.”
“We are accelerating, not decelerating,” Hegseth said.
More bombers and fighters are still arriving to help the U.S. carry out its mission in uncontested airspace.
