JERUSALEM, June 15 (Xinhua) -- The Israeli air force unleashed a new wave of airstrikes in Iran on Sunday night, targeting surface-to-surface missile sites in the west of the country, the Israeli military announced in a statement.
The strikes aimed to destroy "dozens" of missile targets, according to the statement.
Israel carried out its heaviest aerial assault on Iran on Friday, striking nuclear facilities in Tehran and other locations across the country. The attack killed dozens of scientists, senior security officials, and civilians in Iran, and triggered retaliatory missile and drone attacks that killed at least 14 people in Israel.
On Sunday, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said the airstrikes would continue and would target not only nuclear-related facilities but also missile sites, weapons production facilities, aerial defense systems, and "regime targets in Tehran."
In a public update, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel was "determined to complete the mission of removing the double threat" from Iran.
