Iran has launched more than 100 drones focused on Israel, says the main army spokesman Brig Gen Effie Defrin. Israeli defense systems have launched efforts to face these threats, he added.
“In the last few hours, Iran has launched more than 100 drones towards Israel, and all defensive systems are acting to capture threats,” PTI quoted.
The attack comes after Israel attacked several places in Iran and focused on their key nuclear facilities after US President Donald Trump warned against a possible “massive conflict” in the region.
What did Benjamin Netanyah have said?
According to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel hit “the heart of the Iranian nuclear enrichment program”. He warned that the Israeli operation against Iran should “continue as many days as it requires”.
Netanyahu, who claimed that the attack is a “decisive moment in history”, said “Iranian scientists involved in a nuclear bomb, ballistic missile program and Uranus enrichment facilities were focused.”
Israeli claim
In a statement published on the X Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) stated: “Dozens of IAF Jets completed the first phase, which included strikes on dozens of military targets, including nuclear targets in various areas of Iran.”
