ISRAEL LAUNCHES OPERATION ON THREE CITIES AT ONCE

In a statement from Iran, it was stated that the air defense system had been activated against the attacks. The statement indicated that the attack was carried out south of Tehran, while also announcing that Israeli missiles had been neutralized.

Iranian sources announced that Israeli aircraft struck the Fordo nuclear facility near the capital, Tehran.

Two large explosions were heard at the facility, which is used for uranium enrichment. Shortly after, footage showing these explosions was released.

Israel had previously struck the Natanz uranium enrichment facility, and the missiles used had penetrated the underground facility.

Iranian sources had announced that the Natanz facility was leaking radiation, but that this radiation had not leaked to the outside.

The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran stated that they had begun work to clean up the radiation at Natanz and assess the damage. However, it does not seem likely that these efforts will be completed in the short term.
