According to a spokesperson, the Israeli military wants to have largely destroyed Iranian weapons production "in a few days". The armed forces would "complete the attacks on all important components of the (Iranian) military industry" in this period, army spokesman Effie Defrin told journalists in the evening (local time).

"That means we will have destroyed most of the military production capacity," he added. "It will take the regime a long time to restore them." The Israeli air force has been flying intensive attacks against Iranian military industry targets since the start of the Iran war four weeks ago. According to the Times of Israel, the Israeli military believes it has already attacked around 90 percent of the key facilities of the Iranian weapons industry.

Israeli warplanes also bombed military production facilities in Iran on Saturday night. According to the army, the headquarters of the Organization of Naval Industries was also hit. The institution is responsible for the development and construction of warships and submarines, among other things.
