Israeli Military Conducts Aerial Strikes Against Iranian Nuclear and Military Targets
According to the Israeli military, a “preventive strike” was carried out against Iranian nuclear facilities and military targets. The operation, which began early Friday morning, involved dozens of Israeli aircraft, the military claimed.
Israel’s military stated that the Islamic Republic of Iran was just days away from producing its own atomic weapons, posing an existential threat to the country and the world. The military added that in recent days, Iran had been developing plans with its allies, including Hezbollah and Hamas, to destroy Israel.
The aerial strikes reportedly targeted high-ranking military officials, military bases and nuclear facilities, with the main focus on the nuclear facilities. The operation was conducted in coordination with the United States, the Israeli military said.
