Israel's defence minister Israel Katz has released a statement saying they have struck a petrochemical facility in Iran, as he says the IDF has been instructed to continue to attack Iranian infrastructure "with all force".
"The IDF has now strongly attacked the largest petrochemical facility in Iran located in [Asaluyeh]," he says, adding the facility produced around half of the country's petrochemicals.
The new attack follows an attack on another facility "last week", Katz says.
"Now the two facilities, which together are responsible for about 85% of Iran's petrochemical exports - have been taken out of service and are not functioning," the statement from Katz reads.
