Over the first five days of Israel’s campaign, Iran experienced major losses — in leadership, military assets and nuclear facilities. Analysts said the attacks left the nation’s Islamic government at its weakest point in decades.

Israel has struck a series of nuclear facilities across Iran, including its largest enrichment site, Natanz, key buildings at its Esfahan complex, factories that make centrifuges to enrich uranium, and its still-under-construction heavy-water reactor at Khondab.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the attacks are to protect his country from Iran's nuclear ambition.
