Powerful attacks from Israel on Iran: nuclear centers are targeted

The Middle East conflict has reached a new level. The Israeli military has carried out large-scale attacks on important military and nuclear facilities in Iran, Israeli and international media reported.

The attacks came at a time when Iranian airspace was temporarily closed. According to a statement by Israeli army spokeswoman Efi Defrin, military operations have just begun and will continue in the coming days. "We are simultaneously striking and ensuring the security of our country," she told reporters. At the same time, the Israeli army also announced that it is fully prepared for possible Iranian responses.

The Israeli drone attacks caused loud explosions around the airport in the city of Tabriz, located near Tehran. The attack damaged railway lines and roads intended for military movement. Local sources report that air defense bases were also hit.

In addition, Israeli aircraft also carried out strikes on the city of Shiraz, the center of Fars Province. It is home to the headquarters of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, a ballistic missile production plant, and large ammunition depots. The strikes are said to have targeted these facilities.

The biggest scandal was related to the Natanz nuclear center in Isfahan province. According to the AP agency, this facility was also attacked again. The Israeli military confirmed this. As a result of the strikes, the center's underground enrichment halls, power supply, and auxiliary infrastructure were seriously damaged. This facility is built 40 meters deep and is protected by an 8-meter metal-concrete wall.

Iranian officials also confirmed that some damage was observed at the Natanz facility. However, they refrained from providing precise information on the extent of the damage. Rafael Grossi, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), stated that no change in radiation levels was observed after the attack.

International experts assess this operation as a step that will further aggravate the situation in the Middle East. In particular, attacks on nuclear facilities can pose a serious threat to stability in the region. The conflict between Israel and Iran is likely to escalate further.

The Iranian side has not yet responded directly, but it is said that the country's defense system has been put on high alert. Given the large combat potential of both countries and their sphere of influence in the region, this conflict is also being closely monitored by the international community.

For now, the question of how long the attacks will last remains open. However, it is known that military operations have just begun and this is only the beginning, analysts say.
