Long-distance aircraft fired missiles struck Iranian Air Force assets at Isfahan in central Iran early Friday morning, according to emerging reports.
The report came shortly after local sources reported explosions in Isfahan in central Iran, in the As-Suwayda Governorate of southern Syria, and in the Baghdad area and Babil Governorate of Iraq early Friday morning.
Videos from Isfahan appeared to show Iranian air defenses activated in the skies over the area.
The strike came five days after Iran launched 350 drones and missiles at Israel and two weeks after Iran accused Israel of a strike in Damascus.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirmed on Friday there was no damage to Iran’s nuclear sites in an alleged attack by Israel on Iran.
“There’s an increased threat of military and terrorist attacks against Israel and Israeli interests,” Australia Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said on Friday.
“We urge Australians in Israel or the Occupied Palestinian Territories to depart if it’s safe to do so,” it added.
Anti-Israel activists and commentators who praised the Iranian drone and missile attack on Israel Saturday night criticized Israel over reports of an alleged strike on Iran early Friday morning.
American Communist Jackson Hinkle decried that “Israel bombed Iran on Supreme Leader [Ali] Khamenei’s birthday.”
Hinkle called on Iran to start enriching uranium and not to hold back.
