Israel’s airstrikes on Iran hit a missile factory housing heavy fuel mixers used to power Khaybar and Qassem missiles, ballistic missiles that were launched at Israel in the Iranian strike earlier this month, the Saudi Elaph news site reports, citing an informed source.
The source says that it will take two years to repair the factory, which was completely destroyed.
The report does not say where the factory was located.
