Israel claimed it had "taken out of use" more than 70 percent of Iran's ballistic missile launchers.
This comes as Iran said more than 50 cultural sites have been damaged in two weeks of US and Israeli strikes.
Elsewhere, US President Donald Trump said he did not know if he wanted to make a deal with Iran to end the war.
Israel claimed it had "taken out of use" more than 70% of Iran's ballistic missile launchers.
Israeli military spokesman Effie Defrin suggested more than 700 missile array targets were struck.
The brigadier general added Israel continued to strike sites and infrastructure linked to "the regime's efforts to fortify and hide its nuclear program".
He went on to say the operation would continue as Israel still had "thousands of targets" in Iran.
The US Central Command released new videos showing strikes on various military targets during the ongoing operation in Iran. The command said "Iran's combat power is declining."
Meanwhile, workers and residents in Tehran removed debris and rubble from buildings damaged by Israeli-US strikes in the south of the city.
The strike hit a police station in the area of Javadieh and some surrounding buildings were damaged.
More than 50 cultural sites in Iran were damaged in two weeks of US and Israeli strikes, according to the country's cultural heritage ministry.
The ministry said the 56 sites included museums and bazaars, historic government buildings and mosques.
Among them are the ornate Qajar-era Golestan Palace in Tehran and the Shah Abbas mosque and the 17th century Chehel Sotoun palace in Isfahan.
Elsewhere, US President Donald Trump said he did not know if he wanted to make a deal with Iran to end the war.
Speaking aboard Air Force One, while flying back to Washington D.C. from Florida, Trump outlined requirements for a potential deal. "Well, you start off with, there will be no nuclear weapons.
That's where it starts. And then on top of that there's plenty of things that we're going to get. Thank you very much everybody.I don't know if I want to make a deal (with Iran) because you know what, first of all, nobody even knows who you're dealing with because most of their leadership has been killed, as you know, so I don't even know that we want to make a deal."
