Israeli Air Force hits strategic Iranian facilities in precision attacks

On April 6, the Israeli Air Force carried out airstrikes on multiple sites in Iran based on intelligence from Israel Defence Forces (IDF), targeting critical infrastructure of the “Iranian terror regime.”

In a Telegram post, the IDF stated that, as part of the air strike, it targeted a petrochemical facility where nitric acid was produced for the Iranian terror regime’s Armed Forces.

“Nitric acid is a critical material used in the production of explosives and other critical materials for producing ballistic missiles. In doing so, the IDF further degraded the regime’s military capabilities, particularly its production of weapons relying on the components produced in the facility.

The facility was one of the last remaining compounds producing critical chemical components for explosives and materials for developing ballistic missiles in Iran, following the IDF’s strike on the largest petrochemical facility in Iran and on the petrochemical compound in Mahshahr.

Simultaneously, the IDF struck a large ballistic missile array site in northwestern Iran. From this site, ballistic missile array operatives launched dozens of missiles toward the State of Israel,” the statement said.
