The IDF struck key sites tied to Iran’s nuclear weapons and missile programs, including:
– Inactive nuclear reactor in Arak—a key component in plutonium production
– A nuclear weapons development site near Natanz
– Ballistic missile & air defense production facilities
– Radar systems & missile storage sites
These facilities fuel Iran’s drive for nuclear weapons and its attacks on Israeli civilians.
The IDF will continue operating to eliminate threats and defend the State of Israel.
