Associated Press: Iran’s missile attack on the glittering gem of Israel’s science – Mehr News Agency | Iranian and world news

According to the Mehr News Agency, the Associated Press reported on Iran’s devastating missile attacks on occupied territories, especially to the scientific centers of the Zionist regime.

The report said: Israel has been trying to disrupt Iran’s nuclear program by eliminating Iranian nuclear scientists for many years. After an Iranian missile was known to a leading research institute known for research in biological sciences, physics and other fields, it has now converted Israeli scientists to direct and widespread conflict.

Although the attack on Sunday morning at the Viezman Institute of Sciences, the report added that it caused heavy damage to several laboratories on the campus, destroyed years of scientific research and sent a warning message to Israeli scientists: they and their expertise are now at the forefront of an increasing conflict with Iran.

“This is a moral victory for Iran,” said Orren Scholdir, a professor of molecular cellular biology and molecular neuroscience whose lab was completely destroyed in the attack. They were able to harm the glittering essence of science in Israel.

Iranian scientists; The main goal in the long shadow war

During the years of the war between Israel and Iran, which was the prelude to the current conflict, Israel has repeatedly targeted Iranian nuclear scientists to back down Iran’s nuclear program. Israel also repeated the tactic in its recent attack on Iran, killing several nuclear scientists with senior military commanders, as well as nuclear facilities and ballistic missile infrastructure.

On the other hand, Iran has also been accused of considering at least one Weisman scientist. “The Weisman Institute has long been in Iran’s vision,” said Yel Gusanski, an Iranian expert and senior researcher at the Institute for National Security Studies (a Thought in Tel Aviv).

He insisted that Iran was not sure to target the institute, but believes that this is likely.

Although Weisman is a multidisciplinary research institute, like other universities in the occupied territories, it has connections with its military institutions, including cooperation with leading companies such as Systems, and this may be the reason for its target.

Gozansky said the institute is mostly a symbol of “Israel’s scientific progress” and the attack represents Iranian thinking: you are hurting our scientists, so we also harm your scientific body.

Damage to the institution and laboratories: literally destroyed

Founded in year 6 and later named the first Israeli president, the Weisman Institute is among the top research institutes of the regime. Scientists and its researchers publish hundreds of studies every year. One Nobel Prize Winner of the Chemistry and three Turing award -winning winners have been linked to the institute. The first Israeli computer was also built at the institute in year 6.

According to the institute, two buildings were hit by the attack: one hosted the biological science laboratories, and the second, which was empty and under construction, was to be dedicated to chemistry studies. Dozens of other buildings were also damaged.

The campus has been closed since the attack, although the media was allowed on Thursday. Large masses of stone, crushed metals and other debris were scattered on the campus. Broken windows, roof panels collapsed and burnt walls were seen.

A photo posted by a professor on the X -Social Network (former Twitter) showed flames near a heavily damaged structure that the debris was spread to the ground.

“Several buildings have been severely damaged, meaning that some laboratories have been literally destroyed and there is nothing left,” said Biochemical professor, who said he had visited the scene since the attack.
