The IDF is closely monitoring the possibility of Iran moving its enriched uranium from sites that are damaged or destroyed to other sites, IDF Spokesperson Brig.-Gen. Effie Defrin said in response to a question during his press conference on Sunday.

Iran has said in the past that they had moved enriched uranium from Fordow to other sites but it was never confirmed. It rather appeared to be a use of psychological warfare.

IAF strikes IRGC surface-to-surface missile engine production site

On Saturday, Israeli air force fighter jets struck a surface-to-surface missile engine production site of the IRGC in the Shahroud area of Iran, Defrin said in his statement.

The site had planetary mixers and critical machinery that is used for the production of missile engines.

The strike on the site, which was approximately 2,000 kilometers from Israeli territory, was part of the effort to damage the Iranian regime's surface-to-surface missile production industry.
