Israeli defense officials said Saturday that most of Iran’s military-industrial infrastructure has already been damaged and that further strikes could push that figure to 90% within days.
IDF officials believe around 70% of the components of Iran’s military industry have already been damaged, and that the goal is to raise that figure to roughly 90% within days, a senior military officer said on Saturday
According to the officer, the campaign has targeted surface-to-surface and surface-to-air missile infrastructure, defense ministry production sites, ballistic systems manufacturing facilities, and a headquarters involved in developing naval weapons, Walla reported.
The officer said the strikes were designed not only to inflict immediate operational damage but also to weaken the Iranian regime’s future production capacity through economic disruption. The report said some of the targeted facilities were also used to supply Hamas and Hezbollah.
The senior officer also said Israel was carrying out attacks on Iranian nuclear-related targets in a methodical manner and was not wasting munitions. He added that previously struck sites had been hit again, including facilities in Arak, while declining to comment on attempts to restore activity there.
IDF attacks nuclear sites
Later on Saturday, IDF Spokesperson Brig.-Gen. Effie Defrin said that two sites in Iran had been attacked, including what he described as a uranium facility and the heavy water plant in Arak, which he said had been used in nuclear weapons development.
In Lebanon, the IDF said ground operations were continuing as part of an effort to expand the forward line and dismantle Hezbollah’s armed infrastructure.
According to the senior office, Israeli forces struck command centers, command-and-control systems, and financing channels, including banks and gas stations, while the group’s daily launch capacity had fallen sharply from around 100 planned launches a day to roughly 10.
