🇮🇱❌🇮🇷☢️❗️ Natanz Nuclear Reactor Destroyed in Israeli Strike, Iran Confirms
In a dramatic escalation, Iran’s Atomic Energy Chief has officially confirmed that the Natanz nuclear reactor—a cornerstone of Iran’s uranium enrichment and nuclear development—has been destroyed by an Israeli airstrike.
Natanz was considered one of Iran’s most fortified and strategically important nuclear sites, heavily guarded and built to withstand attacks. Its destruction marks a severe blow to Iran’s nuclear ambitions and signals that Israel’s operation successfully reached its highest-value target.
This development may significantly delay Iran’s nuclear capabilities and will likely provoke an international response as the region braces for potential retaliation.
🇮🇱💥🇮🇷 BREAKING: Israel Launches Fresh Wave of Strikes Across Iran, Targets Missile Sites
According to multiple reports, including statements from Iranian officials and journalists on the ground, Israel has launched a third wave of airstrikes as its military operation against Iran intensifies.
Missile launch sites near Tabriz in northwestern Iran, operated by the IRGC, were struck earlier today. Fresh strikes are now underway in Tehran, with explosions and air defense activity reported in real-time. Kermanshah and Ahvaz, already hit during the first wave, are again being targeted in this new round. Israeli forces are said to be focusing this phase on radars, air defense systems, and military command infrastructure, attempting to neutralize Iran’s ability to launch a coordinated counterstrike.
The scale and precision of the campaign indicate a prolonged and deeply strategic Israeli objective — potentially seeking to cripple Iran’s military infrastructure before any retaliation can be coordinated.
In one of the most significant military escalations in years, Israel has launched a widespread, multi-target airstrike campaign against Iran overnight — directly hitting nuclear facilities, military installations, and top-level leadership targets. Here’s everything you need to know.
🇮🇱 Israel Confirms Direct Strikes on Iran’s Nuclear Program
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu officially confirmed that Israel struck at the core of Iran’s nuclear program. According to his statement, the Israeli Air Force targeted:
The Natanz enrichment facility, Iran’s main nuclear site. Iranian nuclear scientists involved in weaponization efforts. Key locations tied to the Iranian ballistic missile program.
Netanyahu framed the operation as a self-defense necessity, citing a clear and present danger to Israeli national security.
🇮🇷 Massive Explosions Reported Across Iran
Throughout the night, explosions were reported in:
Natanz Khorramabad Kermanshah Hamedan Isfahan Ahvaz Luristan Northern Tehran
Images and videos posted from Tehran showed a penthouse in a high-security zone completely destroyed, with reports claiming it was used by senior Iranian regime figures, possibly IRGC officials.
🧠 Decapitation Strike Attempt on Iranian Command
Israeli military sources stated that this operation was meant to be a “decapitation strike”, similar to what was executed against Hezbollah’s command structure over 10 days — but this time compressed into just 10 minutes.
Initial unverified reports claimed Iran’s Chief of Staff Mohammad Bagheri and other top officials were killed, possibly explaining the lack of immediate retaliation. However, updated Iranian sources confirmed that Bagheri is alive and operating from the command bunker.
🇺🇸 U.S. Response: “We Were Not Involved”
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the United States was not involved in the strikes, and emphasized that America’s top priority is the protection of U.S. forces in the region. He also warned Iran not to retaliate against U.S. assets or personnel, as the region braces for possible escalation.
🏥 Israel on Full Emergency Alert
Israel’s Home Front is now under a nationwide special state of emergency, with the Ministry of Health ordering all hospitals to shift to underground protected zones. All non-urgent medical activity has been halted as missile retaliation from Iran is anticipated.
🔥 The Bigger Picture
This operation marks a historic escalation, possibly the most direct confrontation between Israel and Iran in modern history. It opens the door to regional retaliation from Iran or its proxies — but as of now, Iran has not responded militarily, possibly due to the disruption in its chain of command or deliberate restraint.
🕒 [6:00 AM GMT] – 🇮🇱 Israel places entire civilian infrastructure on emergency status. Hospitals ordered underground. Civil defense systems fully activated.
🕒 [5:30 AM GMT] – 🇺🇸 U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says “The United States was not involved” in the attack, warns Iran against retaliation on U.S. forces.
🕒 [5:02 AM GMT] – 🇮🇷 Iranian military confirms multiple military facilities damaged; denies death of Chief of Staff Mohammad Bagheri.
🕒 [4:35 AM GMT] – Multiple cities across Iran report explosions and power outages, including Natanz, Isfahan, Tehran, Kermanshah, and Ahvaz.
🕒 [4:12 AM GMT] – 🇮🇱 Prime Minister Netanyahu confirms Israel launched direct airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure and ballistic programs.
🧠 Strike Objectives & Damage Assessment
Operation Goal: Cripple Iran’s nuclear weapons and missile capability Targets Hit: Natanz nuclear enrichment facility IRGC-affiliated missile depots Suspected command center in northern Tehran Residences and offices of nuclear scientists Operation Style: Fast, coordinated “decapitation strike” lasting under 10 minutes
