Israel launches new strikes on western Iran missile sites

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced it has begun the 20th wave of its attacks on Israel, employing a combination of long-range liquid and solid-fuel ballistic missiles with enhanced warheads.

According to an IRGC spokesperson, the latest missile barrage is targeting Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport, a biological research facility, and various command, control, and logistical sites.

The announcement came shortly after the Israeli military confirmed it had launched fresh strikes on targets in western Iran.

Israeli officials believe that enriched uranium was present at the Iranian nuclear facility in Isfahan targeted in the overnight US strikes, Israeli journalist Amit Segal of N12 reported on Sunday.

According to the report, it remains unclear whether the material was destroyed in the attack or buried beneath the rubble.

There has been no official confirmation from the United States or Iran regarding the extent of the damage or the presence of nuclear material at the site.

Iran executed a man accused of spying for Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency, Iranian state media reported on Sunday.

Majid Mosayebi was hanged on Saturday after Iran’s Supreme Court upheld his death sentence, the report said.

The judiciary said Mosayebi had undergone a full legal process before the execution was carried out.

Israel has not commented on the execution.

US Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer hit out at President Donald Trump's attack on Iran, asking him to “provide the American people and Congress clear answers on the actions taken tonight and their implications for the safety of Americans.”

“No president should be allowed to unilaterally march this nation into something as consequential as war with erratic threats and no strategy,”

Former Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell, however, said the attack was logical citing Iran's hostile stance.

"Seizing this opportunity is not an escalation toward war — it is a prudent response to the warmongers in Tehran."
