Iran Accuses Israel of Attacking Isfahan Military Facilities

Israel Denies Involvement, Regional Tensions Rise

Tehran has accused Israel of carrying out a drone attack on a military facility in the central Iranian city of Isfahan, ratcheting up tensions between the two Middle Eastern rivals.

The Iranian Defense Ministry stated that three drones were used in the attack, one of which was shot down by air defenses. The other two drones caused minor damage to the facility's roof but did not result in any casualties.

Israel Denies Involvement

Israel has denied involvement in the attack, with a spokesperson stating that "Israel does not comment on operational matters." However, Israel has been widely suspected of carrying out similar attacks on Iranian targets in the past.

Regional Tensions Heighten

The alleged Israeli attack has heightened tensions between Iran and Israel, which have been engaged in a shadow war for years. The attack comes at a time when diplomatic efforts to revive the Iran nuclear deal are at a standstill.

Iran has vowed to respond to the attack, raising concerns about a potential escalation of violence in the region.
