There were also attacks on nuclear facilities in Isfahan, which houses the Iran Nuclear Technology Center and a uranium conversion facility. According to Iranian authorities cited by the media, these strikes did not cause any leakage of hazardous materials.

After at least fifteen hours without attacks, Tehran was targeted by bombings early this Saturday in the center and east of the capital. EFE reported two explosions around 8:45 a.m. local time (5:15 GMT).

Meanwhile, the Revolutionary Guard reported that during the night it launched its 18th wave of missile and suicide drone attacks against several targets in Israel, including Ben Gurion Airport. More than 200 people have died in Iran and at least 24 in the Zionist entity since the beginning of hostilities, according to the latest count from several days ago by Iranian authorities.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has stated that Iran’s nuclear program is peaceful and that his country remains open to diplomacy, but Israel’s attacks must stop first.
