2:13Now PlayingIsrael launched airstrikes across Iran on Friday morning, targeting nuclear facilities and killing senior military commanders in a major escalation that could spark a broad war in the Middle East.
Explosions were heard across Tehran, Natanz — home to a key atomic site — and other cities, according to local and social media. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel — which used 200 air force planes and said it hit around 100 targets — had “struck at the heart of Iran’s nuclear enrichment program.”
The head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Hossein Salami, and the military’s chief of staff, Mohammad Bagheri, were both killed, according to Iranian media. At least two other senior IRGC members also died.
The United Nations’ atomic watchdog said there were no indications of increased radiation levels at Iran’s main uranium-enrichment site of Natanz, an early sign that the strikes have not penetrated the layers of protecting the Islamic Republic’s nuclear stockpile. Former NATO Supreme Allied Commander in Europe Wesley Clark says Israel has forced America's hand. He spoke to Bloomberg Haslinda Amin and Bill Fairies.
