I can imagine that only for sites very near the coastline or borders with a country that supports such a military operation. It would be high risk operations, and it would be better to avoid such operations whereever possible. On the border issue, I think you can forget about Turkey now. Russia also would anot allow that, I suppose. Leave you with Afghanistan only. However, many known prhibited areas where parts of their production program are located, are scattered around Teheran and the heart of the country. I think that rules out to go there with helicopters - going there from the Gulf anyway.
