This comes amid Israel's constant warning to Iranians to evacuate areas near all nuclear facilities in the country. The Israeli army spokesman, Avichay Adraee, released an evacuation warning that includes all weapons factories and their supporting facilities in Iran.
"For your safety, we ask you to please immediately evacuate the areas of these facilities and to not return until further notice," Israel Army's Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee wrote in Farsi in a statement on X on Sunday.
He added: "Being in the vicinity of these areas endangers your life."
The warning came following an exchange of attacks between the two countries over the weekend, during which Tel Aviv killed key ranking Iranian military leaders, including Esmail Qaani.
On the other hand, Iran also launched over 300 missiles, attacking Israel and announcing direct hits in Haifa and Tel Aviv, in addition to other areas.
