ALBAWABA - The Israeli army has issued a warning calling for the evacuation of all nuclear facilities in Iran.

Moreover, the Israeli army spokesman released an evacuation warning that includes all weapons factories and their supporting facilities in Iran.

"For your safety, we ask you to please immediately evacuate the areas of these facilities and to not return until further notice," Israel Army's Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee wrote in Farsi in a statement on X on Sunday. 

He added: "Being in the vicinity of these areas endangers your life."

The warning came following an exchange of attacks between the two countries over the weekend, during which Tel Aviv killed key ranking Iranian military leaders, including Esmail Qaani.

Nonetheless, at least 10 people were killed across Israel in the latest Iranian attacks, while over 130 people were injured. About 35 people are missing as search operations continue in Israel.

On June 14, the army of Israel carried out "an extensive series of strikes on targets in Tehran related to the Iranian regime's nuclear weapons project."

The IDF wrote on X: "The targets included the Iranian Ministry of Defense headquarters, the headquarters of the SPND nuclear project, and additional targets, which advanced the Iranian regime’s efforts to obtain a nuclear weapon and where the Iranian regime hid its nuclear archive."
