Israel has started preparations to target Iran’s nuclear facilities after destroying Syria’s defense system. According to an Israeli newspaper, Israeli military officials have stated that the Israeli Air Force is preparing to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities. Israel aims to take advantage of the situation in Syria, where Bashar al-Assad’s government has been weakened, and in Lebanon, where Iran-backed groups are also weakening.
According to the Israeli military, targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities is necessary to prevent Iran from advancing its nuclear program and developing bombs.
Iran has always denied the development of nuclear weapons, stating that its space program and nuclear activities are purely for peaceful purposes. However, U.S. intelligence agencies and Israel have claimed that Iran was working on a nuclear program for military purposes until 2003.
