Israel Hits Key Weapons Production Targets in Iran
Stand for Israel | June 18, 2025
Overnight, as Iran launched two ballistic missile barrages in Israel, Israel struck key sites in Iran used for enriching uranium:
The Israeli Air Force struck a centrifuge production site in Tehran overnight Tuesday that the military said was used by the Iranian regime to expand and accelerate its uranium enrichment.
More than 50 fighter jets had carried out a series of strikes against targets in the Iranian capital region, the Israel Defense Forces said.
“The Iranian regime is enriching uranium for the purpose of developing nuclear weapons,” the IDF stressed in its Wednesday morning operational update. “Nuclear power for civilian use does not require enrichment at these levels.”
