Explosions reported in Iran near Isfahan on Friday night (April 19). Israel is said to have previously informed the USA of possible retaliation plans.

US President Joe Biden advised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu against launching another attack. Iran acted in what it called “Operation True Promise” in response to the Israeli attack on an Iranian diplomatic building on April 1, which also killed two senior Iranian generals. The warning clearly shows that the conflict between Iran and Israel could escalate quickly. The matter can be considered closed, an Iranian embassy said in a statement on X. "However, if the Israeli regime makes another mistake, Iran's response will be much harsher." retired U.S. Major General Mark MacCarley expressed his defense of the recent recent attack on the Iranian Embassy in Tehran. The aim of the attack was to demonstrate Iran's weaker air defense compared to Israel, according to media reports, and to test Israel's ability to defend itself.
