Iranian reports said that Israel attacked the Fordo nuclear site at midday Monday. The crisis management headquarters in Qom, where the Fordo nuclear facility is located, stated: “Moments ago, the enemy attacked the nuclear site in Fordo again. As announced by senior officials of the Atomic Energy Organization, there is no danger or threat to citizens.” Following the report, an Israeli security official told Army Radio that the IDF carried out an airstrike on the access road to Fordo but not the nuclear site itself. Fordo was one of the nuclear sites targeted in the US attack on Iran. Also on Monday, IDF spokesperson Effie Defrin said that the IDF is attacking the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) headquarters. Iran International reported on Monday that the IDF targeted administrative, security, and courtroom sections of Tehran’s notorious Evin Prison. The attack, described by the Israeli military as “symbolic,” reportedly struck the main entrance and office facilities, while detention blocks housing prisoners remained intact so as not to inflict casualties.
