Israeli air strikes on Iranian missile bases and nuclear facilities

According to the Jerusalem Post, the Israel Defense Forces announced that it launched a strike on a ground-to-ground missile base in central Iran between Sunday night and early Monday morning. According to Saudi state media Al-Arabiya, the Israeli army also attacked targets around the central Iranian city of Natanz. Initial reports suggest that the Israeli army launched a large-scale attack on other nuclear facilities in Iran at the same time. Sources said that after detecting Iran's attempt to launch a missile into Israeli territory, the Israeli army launched a pre-emptive strike to stop Iran's missile launch. According to the Iranian Seismological Center, a 2.5-magnitude earthquake struck Qom Province, where the Fordo nuclear facility is located, hours before the Israeli air strike. At about the same time, Iranian media reported that the Fordo nuclear facility was hit by Israeli air strikes. ( Gold Ten)
