Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed on Monday that recent Israeli strikes on Iran had caused damage to an element of Tehran's nuclear program, resulting in a degradation of its ability to produce ballistic missiles.
During a speech to the Israeli parliament, Netanyahu confirmed that a specific component of Iran's nuclear program was targeted and impacted by the attack. While the exact timing of the strike was not explicitly mentioned, Israel's most recent strikes on Iran occurred in October.
Netanyahu further stated that the strikes carried out in both October and April had not only hindered Iran's ballistic missile production capabilities but also led to the destruction of four S-300 missile batteries.
The Israeli government's actions have intensified tensions between the two nations, prompting efforts to seek a response from the Iranian government regarding the recent developments.
