Military and defense experts have stated that the Israeli army does not have the capability to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities without the assistance and cooperation of the United States. Experts have made this statement at a time when some Western media outlets are claiming that the Israeli army has taken control of Iranian airspace. However, no official Iranian agency has confirmed this.
Since June 13, the Israeli army has been targeting Iran with terrorist attacks, claiming to obstruct the country’s nuclear program. However, military and defense experts say that the Israeli army does not have the capability to destroy the underground facilities established by Iran under its nuclear program. Israeli attacks are targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, as well as senior military commanders and scientists working on the nuclear program. The number of people martyred in Israeli terrorist attacks has risen to 240, including about 70 women and children. In retaliation for Israeli attacks, Iran has also been launching attacks on the Zionist Israeli capital Tel Aviv and main cities using dangerous ballistic missiles and military drones. It has been confirmed that 24 Israelis have been killed in these attacks.
Citing senior Israeli army officers, Western media outlets have said that the Israeli army has taken full control of Iranian airspace. The Zionist extremist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has also said so. This is seen by analysts as a major challenge facing Iran. However, military and defense experts say that without the assistance and cooperation of the United States, the Israeli army does not have the capability to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities. Andreas Krieg, an analyst at the School of Security Studies at King’s College London, said that it must be acknowledged that the Israeli army has made significant progress through the terrorist attacks it is carrying out against Iran. However, he also said that taking control of Iranian airspace cannot be considered a victory over Iran.
The Israeli army began attacking Iran with the approval of US President Donald Trump. Analysts say there are indications that the US military is preparing to join the Israelis in attacking Iran. In this regard, the US military has sent air refueling tankers to European countries for military aircraft. And the US aircraft carrier USS Nimitz is currently traveling to the Middle East. This is an indication that the United States is preparing to join the Israelis in attacking Iran.
Krieg said he does not believe that even using bunker-busting weapons used by the US military to attack underground facilities can destroy the underground facilities built under Iran’s nuclear program. He also said that he believes this can only be achieved by sending troops to Iran by land. “Israel will act as it wishes, without any hesitation, without being accountable to anyone, as it has done in Lebanon,” he said.
The Iranian military said that it is attacking and shooting down Israeli military aircraft being used to attack Iranian territories. However, the Israeli army has denied this. And they said that all military aircraft used to attack Iran have returned to Israel after 3,000-kilometer journeys. A Western defense source said that the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) government ruling Syria has given permission to the Israelis to use Syrian airspace to refuel Israeli military aircraft.
