The confrontation between Israel and Iran has entered its sixth day, with continued missile exchanges and airstrikes fueling fears of a wider regional conflict.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said that it had attacked a centrifuge production site and multiple weapon manufacturing facilities in Tehran. It said more than 50 Air Force fighter jets took part in these attacks. The IDF stated that several weapons production sites were targeted. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) also confirmed that two centrifuge production facilities in Iran had been hit.

In a televised address to the nation, Khamenei said Iran will stand firm against an imposed war. Responding to U.S. President Donald Trump’s call for surrender, Khamenei said the Iranian nation will not surrender.
