The Israeli air base of Nevatim was destroyed in a missile attack by Iranian forces, Iran's Tasnim news agency reported. The information came amid an ongoing exchange of strikes between Tehran and Tel Aviv, which has led to another escalation of tensions in the Middle East. The base housed strategic facilities, including weapons depots and Israeli Air Force aircraft, the sources said.

The Iranian agency claims that the strike hit key infrastructure at the base, causing its complete destruction. However, Israeli officials have not yet confirmed the extent of the destruction, and independent sources have not provided information about the destruction of the base.

It is expected that in the coming hours the satellites will provide objective information about the consequences of the strikes.
