IDF Spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari issued a statement to the media, saying that "Air Force pilots continue to strike in an unceasing sequence. The focus of attacks in the past day has been on Tehran, from where a murderous terror regime that threatens the entire Western world is being managed." According to him, "We struck two significant targets of the nuclear program. This is a hit against the existential threat that Iran tried to create against Israel. The Iranian regime wanted to launch a barrage of hundreds of missiles in response to our preemptive strike, and as we have seen, they have capabilities that can cause significant damage." He emphasized: "The attacks are not behind us, continue to maintain composure."
