JERUSALEM — As dawn broke over Tehran on Friday, the significant extent of Israel's unexpected assault on Iran became clear:
Israeli forces, bolstered by a clandestine operation from Mossad that had been planned for months, inflicted considerable damage on the Iranian nuclear site at Natanz, dismantled portions of Iran's ballistic missile stockpile, and eliminated several high-ranking Iranian military officials and nuclear scientists during a series of 100 airstrikes.
