Israel targets nuclear facility and other Iran sites in wake of United States' strikes
Israel has targeted Iran's Fordo nuclear site in the wake of the United States' massive strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites the day before. The Israeli military confirmed on Monday that it struck roads around the Fordo facility to obstruct access to the site. The underground site was one of those hit in Sunday's attack by the United States on three nuclear facilities. Israel's Defence Ministry said it also hit targets in Tehran including Evin prison and the security headquarters of the paramilitary Revolutionary Guards. 'The Iranian dictator will be punished with full force for attacking the Israeli home front,' the ministry said. The strikes also hit Tehran's Palestine Square and other 'military command centres belonging to the Iranian regime'. The airstrikes come a day after the US military carried out sweeping strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities. While President Trump said the strikes had 'obliterated' the three sites, Iran has yet to reveal the extent of the damage caused to its nuclear facilities, and the real damage to Fordo, which is located deeply underground, remains unknown. The US President has also kept the door ajar to regime change, contradicting claims made by his Vice President and Secretary of State who had earlier said the US' activities were not about forcing such change. In a post on Truth Social, Mr Trump wrote: 'It's not politically correct to use the term, 'Regime Change,' but if the current Iranian Regime is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN, why wouldn't there be a Regime change??? MIGA!!!'
