This is just speculation on my part. But it looks like Israel carried out a masterful limited attack on Iranian targets tonight in as many as four countries simultaneously: (1) Iran; (2) Iraq; (3) Syria; and (4) Lebanon. These attacks appear to be intended to communicate a…

Israel hits back at Iran in retaliatory strike, targeting nuclear research facility and major airbase: reports
By:Victor Nava, NY Post, April 18, 2024
Israel launched its expected retaliatory strike against Iran on Friday morning, according to multiple reports.
ADVERTISEMENTIsraeli missiles hit at least one site in Iran, ABC News reported, citing US officials, and Iranian state media alerted citizens to explosions heard in the central part of the Islamic republic.
The attack comes after Iran rained down more than 300 drones and missiles toward the Jewish nation last Saturday — though nearly all were intercepted by Israel and its allies.Israel has responded and is currently attacking Iran inside Iran as well as Syria and Iraq. 6
Israeli missiles hit at least one site in Iran, ABC News reported, citing US officials, and Iranian state media alerted citizens to explosions heard in the central part of the Islamic republic.
Israel’s early morning retaliatory strike, however, appeared to be “limited,” a military source told Fox News.
Israeli officials notified the US on Thursday that it had planned to strike Iran within 24 to 48 hours, according to Bloomberg News.
The Biden administration “didn’t endorse” Israel’s response, a US official told CNN.
The city of Isfahan – home of Iran’s Natanz nuclear research facility and a major air base – appears to have been Israel’s primary target.
ADVERTISEMENTA scroll alerting viewers to a “loud noise” near Isfahan was displayed on Iranian state television, but provided no other information, according to the Associated Press.
State television claimed that all nuclear sites in the region were “fully safe.”
Hossein Dalirian, a spokesman for Iran’s civilian space program, claimed that the explosions were the results of three quadcopter drones that had been shot down, dismissing the threat Israel’s apparent retaliation posed to Iran.
Iran’s air defense systems were activated in several provinces after the explosions first rang out, state news outlet IRNA reported, according to CNN.
All flights bound for the cities of Tehran, Isfahan and Shiraz have been diverted, an Iranian official announced on state-run television, per the Times of Israel.
At least eight flights already in the air over Iran were diverted as the strike commenced, according to CNN.
