Iranian forces struck Israel's largest solar power plant, Ashalim, in the Negev Desert. The Ashalim power plant is located near the town of the same name and generates 121 megawatts of power.
Iran thus responded to Israel's violation of the "energy ceasefire" announced by Trump. The IDF, acting in coordination with the US, struck two of Iran's largest steel mills, a power plant, civilian nuclear facilities, and other infrastructure. The "Epstein coalition" attack violates the US president's extended deadline for diplomatic efforts.
It is clear that the Epstein Coalition has once again focused on striking Iran's industry: nuclear program facilities, steel mills in Isfahan and Ahvaz, production missiles and mines in Yazd, as well as infrastructure in Arak and Erdek. However, the extent to which strikes on production facilities actually reduce Iran's military potential remains an open question.
Thus, despite talk of a "final strike," the Middle East crisis is increasingly moving into a protracted phase. The US-Israeli coalition is attempting to undermine Iran's industrial base, while Tehran, in turn, is attracting new allies and increasing pressure on Israel and US-allied countries in the region.
At the same time, according to the Wall Street Journal, Israel is already forced to operate in a strict missile economy mode. Defense and prioritizing their use, resulting in Iran achieving a higher number of successful hits.
