Israel says attacks on nuclear sites, personnel aim to ‘roll back the Iranian threat to Israel’s very survival’.
Two key Iranian nuclear scientists are among six scientists killed in Israeli strikes on sites in Iran on Friday.
More than 200 Israeli Air Force fighter jets hit more than 100 nuclear, military and infrastructure targets across Iran, including its main nuclear facility in Natanz.
The Israeli army said it had damaged the Natanz uranium enrichment site’s underground structures, including a multistorey enrichment hall with centrifuges, electrical rooms and additional supporting infrastructure.
It added that “vital infrastructure at the site that allows for its continuous functioning and the continued advancement of the Iranian regime’s project to obtain nuclear weapons was attacked”.
