WORLD, Jan. 30 (YPA) – The Zionist entity carried out a drone strike targeting a defense compound in Iran, according to US officials and people familiar with the operation.
The Wall Street Journal, citing informed US officials, reporting that “Israel” appears to have been behind the recent drone attack on an Iranian defense position in the city of Isfahan.
“Israel carried out a stealth drone attack on an Iranian defense site as the United States and Israel look for new possibilities to curb Tehran’s nuclear and military ambitions,” the newspaper said.
The paper stressed that this was the “first public Israeli strike” since Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took office.
The Israeli newspaper “Jerusalem Post” quoted Western intelligence sources as saying that the drone strike against Iran was successful.
Iran’s defence ministry said it had thwarted a drone attack on a defence factory that caused no casualties and limited damage to the roof of an industrial workshop.
