Israel Strikes Iranian Missile Production Facilities

Israel has launched a series of airstrikes targeting Iran's missile production capabilities, significantly impacting the country's ability to manufacture long-range ballistic missiles. The strikes, coordinated with the U.S., focused on critical components, including specialized fuel mixers essential for solid-fuel missiles like the Kheibar and Qassem, with damage estimates suggesting a two-year recovery period for the affected facilities. Satellite images confirm the destruction of vital missile production sites, including those near Tehran, which were previously undergoing expansion. The operation, dubbed 'Days of Repentance,' is seen as a response to Iran's missile and drone attacks against Israel earlier this year. Additionally, the strikes targeted air defense systems, further compromising Iran's military defenses. The international community, including the UN, has raised concerns about the humanitarian implications of these military actions as the situation in Gaza escalates.
