Israel launched airstrikes on Iranian military sites near Tehran and in western Iran in response to recent attacks attributed to Iran. According to Israeli sources, scores of jets targeted missile factories and other military facilities, specifically avoiding energy and nuclear sites. The U.S. was notified in advance, and President Biden expressed hope that these strikes might bring an end to the confrontation.
Iran reported that its air defenses responded to the assault but confirmed four fatalities and limited damage.
David Albright, a former U.N. nuclear weapons inspector, said low resolution commercial satellite imagery appeared to show that one Israeli strike hit the sprawling Parchin military complex near Tehran, damaging three buildings, including two where solid fuel was mixed for ballistic missile engines.
