Reportedly, the airstrike blew up an ammunition store at the airbase.
This comes as Israeli leaders have promised to ramp up military action against Iran in the coming days.
Daily Mail has more:
A massive air strike by Israeli-US forces has hit an Iranian airbase, triggering a huge explosion which blew an ammunition store sky high.
The hit appears to have taken place at the Vahdati Air Base in the western Iranian city of Dezful, in Khuzestan province, on Saturday.
Video footage shows a huge ball of smoke rising above the edge of the city following an explosion.
A second fireball is then seen mushrooming into the sky, followed by a resulting shockwave that sent the person filming ducking for cover.
It comes as Israel’s Defence Minister pledged that attacks on Iran would ‘significantly increase’ in the coming days, and the US said it has hit more than 8,000 military targets since the conflict began.
Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of US Central Command (CENTCOM), said that the US military has so far struck over 8,000 military targets, including 130 Iranian vessels, in the past three weeks.
He said overnight forces had dropped multiple 5,000-pound bombs on a ‘hardened’ underground facility located along Iran’s coast that it used to store anti-ship cruise missiles, mobile missile launchers and other equipment.
