Strikes on Tehran fail to prevent Iranian retaliation

Strikes on Tehran fail to prevent Iranian retaliation  Even with over a hundred missiles targeting Iran across multiple sites, several things have become evident, one being the priority placed on decapitating the Iranian leadership. Not only were the facilities of Supreme Leader Khamenei and President Pezeshkian attacked, but even former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s house in Narmak was hit. This targets a man who has been out of power for years, yet was still singled out, revealing the sheer scale of the coalition's plans.  Israeli aircraft are already in the skies, and the offensive is taking a shape similar to the "12-day war". However, Iranian radars have not been fully neutralized, which will serve as a major test for Iran's air defenses, both naval and land-based. I am skeptical about the long-range efficiency of these defenses.  In terms of the assault, Iran is currently engaged in a level of warfare with the US not seen in decades, involving the actual destruction of American military assets in the region. Naval combat has not yet been reported but is expected in the coming hours, which could bring a new turning point to the conflict.   If the Israeli Air Force can operate as it did during the 12-day war, I foresee severe damage to Iranian installations. But if these aircraft face insecurity at their own bases in Israel, they will be forced to disperse, reducing the intensity of their strikes. I believe this is exactly what Iran is banking on.
