Kathmandu. On March 21, the Wahdati airbase (the fourth strategic fighter base) near the city of Dejaful in Khuzestan province of Iran was heavily bombed. U.S. and Israeli precision missiles targeted the base’s ammunition bunkers. After the attack, the weapons stored in the bunkers exploded spontaneously. This triggered a chain reaction of secondary explosions. <\/p>\n
Mushroom clouds rose in the sky, and fire was visible from miles away. Locals captured the sound of explosions, birds chirping and continuous roaring shocks. The base was home to Iran’s old F-5 Tiger II fighter jets since the 1980s. <\/p>\n
The attack burned several F-5 jets and destroyed an entire ammunition depot. During the 1980 Iran-Iraq war, the base was also attacked. But this time, he couldn’t survive. <\/p>\n
Israel’s Dimona nuclear research center was also attacked. It is Israel’s main nuclear reactor. Where nuclear weapons are investigated. Iran has said that there was a missile or drone attack. <\/p>\n
There is a risk of radiation leaks from the attack. Dimona has been a target of Iran in the past. But this time it was a direct hit. Israel has not yet issued an official statement. <\/p>\n
Attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n }<\/p>\n In the 22 days of the Iran war, the United States and Israel have carried out several attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities. <\/p>\n Natanz<\/span> uranium enrichment plant. The fifth attack occurred in March 2026. The centrifuges were destroyed. The entrance is blocked. <\/p>\n Ford: <\/span> Underground plant under the hill. High uranium enrichment. The bunker was attacked by a buster bomb but parts survived. <\/p>\n Isfahan: <\/span> Uranium Conversion and Refueling Manufacturing Center. 40 years old. A metal manufacturing unit was destroyed in the attack. <\/p>\n Nuclear weapons test site at the <\/span> military complex Talegan-2. Cluster munitions attacked, explosive testing laboratories destroyed. <\/p>\n Minzadeh<\/span> Underground site near Tehran. The development of nuclear weapons components was completely destroyed. All these sites were attacked with bunker busters and precision missiles. Several top nuclear scientists were also killed. <\/p>\n What is the risk of nuclear radiation? <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Bombing nuclear plants poses a significant risk of radiation leaks. Dimona and other Iranian plants have uranium and plutonium stocks. If the radiation spreads, people in the surrounding area can get sick. Soil and water can be contaminated. However, no atomic bomb or nuclear weapon has yet been used. <\/p>\n It’s still a conventional war. Nuclear war will be declared only if a country detonates a nuclear weapon. Currently, both sides are at risk of radiation, but the war has not reached nuclear levels. According to experts, if there are more attacks, the radiation could spread and the entire Middle East could be affected. <\/p>\n Why is the picture of the TAG_OPEN_strong_42 World War so scary? <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The attacks on Dayfull and Dimona have revealed a horrific picture of war. In the past, only military bases were targeted, but now oil fields and nuclear sites are being targeted. Khuzestan is an oil province in Iran. It produces 90% of Iran’s oil. An ammunition depot exploded itself after the attack. <\/p>\n Israel’s defense minister announced from underground bunkers that the attacks would be significantly increased. A 48-hour ultimatum has been put in place. Natanz has already been attacked, and a fifth attack has already taken place. Seeing all this, the world is afraid that a conventional war could turn into a nuclear war. \u2013Agency<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kathmandu.
