The strike on Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan sought to dismantle Iran's controversial nuclear program.
The strategic operation, dubbed Rising Lion, saw Israel's collaboration with the US in targeting key nuclear and missile production sites within Iran. Netanyahu asserted that this action, potentially reshaping regional dynamics, was essential to preventing Iran from becoming a nuclear-armed state.
