The IDF attacked the nuclear reactor in Arak, including the reactor's containment building - a key component in plutonium production. This was confirmed by the IDF spokesman, who added that 40 fighter jets attacked dozens of military targets overnight with more than 100 munitions. The attack was directed at the component intended for plutonium production, thereby preventing its ability to be repurposed for nuclear weapons production, it was reported. In addition, the Air Force attacked a site used for nuclear weapons development in Natanz, where unique components and equipment used for nuclear weapons development are located, and where projects that enable the acceleration of the nuclear weapons program are being developed.
