Israeli warplanes have significantly damaged Iran’s largest uranium enrichment facility, the Natanz nuclear plant.
The Natanz facility houses the equipment necessary to enrich uranium to military-grade levels.
According to the IDF, the underground area of the site was damaged. This area contains a multi-story enrichment hall with centrifuges, electrical rooms, and additional supporting infrastructure. In addition, critical infrastructure enabling the site’s continuous operation and the Iranian regime’s ongoing efforts to obtain nuclear weapons were targeted.
In the last few hours, Israeli Air Force fighter jets, guided by precise intelligence from the Intelligence Directorate, also completed a series of strikes against the Iranian regime’s surface-to-surface missile array.
As part of the strikes, dozens of launchers, surface-to-surface missile storage facilities, and additional military sites were destroyed. At one of the sites struck in western Iran, a unique launch mechanism was embedded within shipping containers.
Throughout the war, the Iranian regime has fired hundreds of surface-to-surface missiles toward the territory of the State of Israel. The destruction of missiles constitutes a vital mission in the effort to defend the citizens of the State of Israel.
The Iranian regime’s missile arsenal includes missiles with ranges of thousands of kilometers. Leaving these missiles in the hands of the Iranian regime poses a danger to the region and the entire world.
