"This nuclear reactor in Arak was created for one purpose: to build a nuclear bomb. It has now been neutralized," The IDF said in a post on X.

At the site of the Iranian ballistic missile attack on the Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba this morning, President Isaac Herzog said Israel must deliver a "harsh blow" to Iran to ensure a better future for Israel and the region, as per The Times of Israel.

"We will rebuild everything. That is a certainty. We will demonstrate resilience, and we will change our destiny -- and the destiny of the entire region," Herzog told media at the scene.

He highlighted that "Jews, Muslims, and people of all faiths work together and receive care side by side" in the hospital, including Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza, demonstrating "what the future can be," The Times of Israel quoted him as saying. (ANI)
