TL;DR

Iranian media reports indicate that the Khondab district in central Iran, which houses the Arak heavy water reactor, was targeted in the current wave of strikes. The reactor was previously attacked by Israel in March, according to the reports. The claims are unverified and no details on the source of the attacks or damage are available.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Iranian media reports emerged Sunday morning stating that the Khondab district in central Iran was struck in the latest wave of attacks targeting the country. The district is the site of the Arak heavy water reactor, which the reports note was previously attacked by the IDF in March.

The Zioneer reported earlier at 08:59 that Iran's state-affiliated Fars News Agency claimed projectiles struck the Arak heavy water reactor area, causing heavy damage. The current report from Iranian sources adds the specific location of Khondab and links it to the earlier March attack.

The claims remain unverified. No official Iranian, Israeli, or US confirmation has been provided, and the source of the attacks is not identified in the reports. The Arak heavy water reactor, a key nuclear facility, has been a target of past Israeli strikes.
