As Israeli attacks on Iranian military and nuclear sites enter their second week, the Israeli army has announced that operations will persist until all strategic objectives are fully achieved.
Effie Defrin, spokesperson for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), stated during a daily press briefing on Friday that Israeli forces are conducting operations both underground and in the skies over Iran.
“The coming days will be full of challenges,” Defrin said, noting that airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities are ongoing and that the scope of military operations is expanding.
He emphasised that the destruction of Iran’s missile launch systems is among the key goals of the campaign. “We are acting decisively to remove the existential threat posed by Iran,” he added.
According to Defrin, Israel is currently engaged in military operations on seven different fronts, with Iran at the centre of what the Israeli government views as a regional threat network.
No immediate response has been issued by Iranian officials regarding the latest developments.
