Iranian Missiles Hit Israel's Nuclear Site

This came as a direct response to an earlier attack on Iran's Natan's nuclear facility. Officials from the International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed no rise in radiation levels off-site in the Tans and they urged all sides to show. Maximum restraint around nuclear sites. In Dhamona, emergency crews treated 40 people, with 37 suffering mild injuries and a 10-year-old boy in serious condition. A separate strike hit nearby Erad, where 68 others got care, including 47 with light wounds and 10 in serious shape. Firefighters noted that air defenses launched interceptors, but they missed, allowing two ballistic missiles with heavy warheads to land directly. Emergency workers called the scene an ARAD very severe, with many wounded in different conditions. Israel is now probing how the missiles slip through its defenses, raising big concerns

The Dhamona site, known as the Shimon Paras Negev Nuclear Research Center, has long been linked to Israel's undeclared nuclear program, making it the Middle East's only nuclear power. Both Israel and the United States see stopping Iran's nuclear ambitions as a top wargo, and the Tans has faced hits before, including early in the conflict that began February 28. As investigations continue, the strikes highlight the high stakes around these facilities, with both sides pointing fingers over nuclear safety.
