Netanyahu says promise to destroy Iran's nuclear programme 'fulfilled'

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that his promise to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities had been "fulfilled" following strikes carried out "in perfect coordination" between the Israeli and US militaries.

The level of damage to the nuclear sites is not immediately clear. 

"From the beginning of the operation, I promised you that Iran's nuclear facilities would be destroyed, one way or another. This promise has been fulfilled," Netanyahu said in a video message posted to social media. 

"A short while ago, in perfect coordination between me and President Trump, and in perfect operational coordination between the [Israeli forces] and the US military, the United States attacked Iran's three nuclear facilities Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan," he added.
