JERUSALEM - Israel on June 15 issued evacuation warnings to Iranians living near weapons production facilities in Tehran, as the two nations continued to exchange missile attacks that began on June 13.
“The Israeli military will strike these sites and will continue to peel away the Iranian snake’s skin in Tehran and everywhere, targeting nuclear capabilities and weapons systems,” Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said in a statement.
Israel had earlier issued an evacuation warning to Iranians residing near weapons facilities in Iran, an Israeli military spokesperson said in a post on social media platform X in Arabic and Farsi.
The spokesperson said the warning included all weapons factories and supporting facilities.
