Report: Israel Disrupted Production at Iranian Solid-Fuel Missile Plant
(Ynet News) Itamar Eichner - Israel targeted an Iranian solid-fuel plant crucial to the production of Kheibar and Qasem ballistic missiles, which were fired at Israel earlier this month, Saudi news site Elaph reported on Saturday. The strike is said to have taken the facility completely offline, destroying 12 heavy fuel mixers, each worth $2 million. Sources said the facility will likely require years to resume operations. Israeli officials claim the strike caused severe damage to Iran's air defenses and ballistic missile capabilities. A senior Israeli source noted that while the Israel public expects dramatic displays, the high level of U.S.-Israel cooperation on security matters weighed heavily on operational decisions.
