In pictures: Aftermath of Israeli strikes on Iran's military and nuclear sites

Tensions between Israel and Iran have surged dramatically, culminating in Israeli airstrikes on Iranian military and nuclear targets that began on Friday — one of the most direct confrontations between the two countries to date.

Satellite imagery reviewed by the Associated Press on Saturday shows the extent of the destruction caused by the Israeli assault.

Photos taken by Planet Labs on Friday reveal visible damage at two missile facilities in western Iran — one near Kermanshah and the other in Tabriz.

At the Kermanshah site, scorched terrain spreads along the base of a mountainside, while the Tabriz installation appears to have sustained damage across several areas.

Satellite images taken on Friday and Saturday show extensive damage at Iran’s Natanz nuclear enrichment site, located southwest of Tehran.

Several buildings were destroyed, including power-related structures. The main plant, where uranium was enriched up to 60% purity — close to weapons-grade — was also hit. However, the underground halls appear intact.

Iran has not confirmed the damage, though it reported Israeli strikes in the region.
