An Iranian army spokesman said today that the country’s air defenses have “successfully intercepted” several unmanned aerial vehicles. At the same time, the Iranian army noted that not all launches were prevented.
Iranian media write about this.
A senior US administration official told Reuters this morning that the US did not take part in the Israeli attack on Iran, allegedly carried out on Iranian soil. The source confirmed that Israel had previously informed Washington about the planned raid.
The IDF carried out massive strikes on military targets in Iran and Syria on Friday, April 19. At least 9 strikes were carried out, including Isfahan province.
Iranian media confirm three explosions that occurred near a military base, which houses not only military facilities, but also nuclear installations. In response to the incident, Iranian authorities immediately suspended flights over some cities and announced the downing of unmanned aerial vehicles.
Iran’s space agency spokesman, Hossein Dalirian, confirmed the successful downing of several drones using air defense. According to the Tasnim agency, nuclear facilities in Isfahan province remain completely safe.
Reacting to the attack, the US Embassy in Jerusalem issued a warning to its employees and their families, recommending travel restrictions to areas of Tel Aviv, Beersheba and Jerusalem itself. This is the latest reminder of the growing tension in the region and the need for caution.
