Military analyst Weeb Union provided an overview of the reported strikes.
Iranian officials, however, are saying the attack was not even much of an attack.
According to an exclusive post by the Tasnim News Agency:
There are no reports of an attack from abroad against Isfahan or any other part of Iran, informed sources told Tasnim on Friday. The informed sources told Tasnim that contrary to the rumors and claims made by the Israeli media on Friday morning, there are no reports of an attack from abroad on Iran’s central city of Isfahan or any other part of the country.
“Air defense units were activated in some places such as Isfahan and Tabriz, but that measures were due to the high sensitivity of the air defense systems due to the current situation and the ‘possibility’ of detecting some small drones,” sources underlined.
Also, informed sources told Tasnim that despite the rumors, until now there is no report that a big explosion occurred in Isfahan or possible missile attack. The nuclear facility in Isfahan province is also completely safe and the report of some foreign media about incidents in Isfahan facility is incorrect.
Furthermore, cited by the Times of Israel, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said, “The Zionist regime’s media supporters, in a desperate effort, tried to make victory out of their defeat, while the downed mini-drones have not caused any damage or casualties.”
A number of people in the comment section of an update from Secular Talk were claiming they are Iranian, saying the attacks were laughable and they were making memes of it, and others saying that these so-called attacks demonstrate Western propaganda trying to continuously paint Iran as a ‘boogeyman.’
The Israeli paper added:
Iran has no plan for immediate retaliation against Israel, a senior Iranian official said Friday, as officials in Jerusalem indicated that an alleged drone attack on a city south of Tehran was meant to send a signal rather than cause damage.
The Iranian official also cast doubt on whether Israel was behind the attack in Isfahan, despite comments from some Israeli politicians practically accepting responsibility.
Together with a subdued response from official Iranian media organs, the senior official’s comments indicated that Tehran may be uninterested in risking war to make good on threats that it would attack Israel should it retaliate for a weekend missile and drone attack, and was seeking a way to avoid being held to the bellicose promises.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
I’m not there, I have no clue what’s the truth, but I do know I never trust what the U.S. government and media says. In any event, this war will only continue to escalate as we knew we it would.
Mark 13:7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. [8] For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
