In the heart of Tehran, the IDF struck two key naval cruise missile production sites.

The Israeli Air Force, guided by military intelligence and naval intelligence, targeted the facilities in recent days.

According to the IDF, the sites operated under Iran’s Defense Ministry and were used to develop and produce long-range naval cruise missiles capable of striking targets at sea and on land.

The strikes caused significant damage to Iran’s cruise missile capabilities, marking another blow to the regime’s military production infrastructure.

The IDF says it struck the Malek-Ashtar University facility in Tehran, a strategic R&D site used by the Iranian regime to develop nuclear weapons components and ballistic missiles.

The facility, subordinate to Iran's Defense Ministry, is internationally sanctioned for advancing Iran's nuclear program.
