Israel conducted extensive airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, targeting key sites like Natanz and killing prominent Iranian nuclear scientists. These strikes are part of Israel's strategy to diminish the perceived existential threat posed by Iran's advancing nuclear capabilities. The operation occurred amid U.S. diplomatic efforts for an agreement with Iran and heightened tensions reflected by the U.S. embassy's partial evacuation in Iraq. Iran condemned the strikes and vowed retaliation, claiming its nuclear program is solely for peaceful purposes and contesting allegations of noncompliance with international regulations.
The Israeli army reported significant damage to the Natanz uranium enrichment site's underground infrastructure, impacting operations that support Iran's nuclear weapons ambitions.
Iran's military spokesperson warned Israel of severe consequences for its recent attacks, emphasizing the high-ranking casualties among Iranian military and scientific personnel.
