US EditionIsraeli Forces Strike Iran’s Nuclear Development Site
- On June 14, 2025, Israeli forces launched airstrikes targeting Iran's Natanz uranium enrichment facility and multiple other nuclear sites to end Iran's nuclear development programs.
- The strikes followed Iran's cancellation of nuclear talks in Oman and longstanding verification challenges at facilities like Natanz and Arak, which retain significant nuclear capabilities despite past agreements.
- Further Israeli airstrikes struck the Arak heavy-water nuclear reactor on June 19, causing substantial damage but no reported civilian casualties, while Iran reported no impact on other critical sites such as Fordow.
- Israeli officials cited the strikes as necessary to dismantle Iran’s strategic nuclear capabilities, while critics warned the attack may accelerate Iran’s nuclear ambitions and intensify regional tensions.
- The airstrikes weakened some nuclear infrastructure but left heavily fortified sites intact, potentially hardening Iranian resolve and complicating diplomatic efforts to prevent nuclear proliferation in the Middle East.
