Israeli army strikes inactive nuclear reactor in Arak, Iran: Avichay Adraee
Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee announced on X that the Israeli military struck an inactive nuclear reactor in the Arak region of Iran overnight.
Adraee stated, ''Construction of the reactor began in 1997 but was never completed due to international pressure.

Adraee added that the strike aimed to prevent Iran from acquiring the capability to activate the reactor.
