The Israel Defense Forces said it has struck facilities linked to Iran's nuclear program on Friday.
The IDF said it struck the heavy water plant in Arak, central Iran, and struck a uranium extraction plant located in Yazd, central Iran.
The IDF's statement described the plant in Yazd as "the only one of its kind in Iran, where raw materials mined from the earth undergo mechanical and chemical processing so that they can later be used as raw materials for uranium enrichment."
Earlier, Iranian state media reported that nuclear facilities, including a heavy water plant and yellowcake production plant, had been targeted.
These strikes comes hours after Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said IDF attacks in Iran would "escalate and expand."
