The Israeli military has claimed that its forces had struck a facility embedded within a Tehran university that was allegedly being used to develop components for nuclear weapons, AFP reports.
“The Malek-Ashtar University facility was utilised by the Iranian terror regime’s military industries and ballistic missiles array to develop nuclear weapon components and weapons,” the military said.
“The Malek-Ashtar University was subordinate to the Iranian Defence Ministry, and is sanctioned internationally due to its activities and efforts over the years to advance the Iranian nuclear program and to develop ballistic missiles,” the military added.
