Israel attacks Iranian missile bases

According to the news outlet New York Times, Israel plans to focus its military operations on destroying Iranian missile platforms, as well as their production and storage facilities.

Journalists say the goal of the attack is to dismantle the infrastructure that enables Iran to launch ballistic missiles into neighboring countries. As noted in the sources, the operation reliably prevents new missile launches and reduces the potential of external threats.

Israel has previously carried out similar attacks to limit the development of Iran's missile technology, thereby reducing the potential threat to regional security.
