The Iranian media reported explosions in Isfahan and the activation of the air defense systems. State television claimed that three small UAVs detected in the sky of the district were shot down without causing any damage in the area.
Israel considered attacking Iran on Monday night, but decided to wait. Israel is not expected to attack Iran - until after Passover on April 14. The target that was attacked was not related to the nuclear program, an American official told CNN. The area is home to the Natanz uranium enrichment facility, which in recent years has suffered a series of mysterious sabotage operations attributed to Israel. In January of last year, it was reported that drones launched from Iranian territory had hit the area, and in January of this year, the attack was reported to have taken place in the Isfahanshah district. The attack was not carried out by Iranian forces. The Iranian government has denied that there were missiles launched at the country from outside its territory and emphasized that the nuclear sites are safe.
