Israel-Iran Crisis LIVE: World Leaders Call For De-Escalation In Middle East After Drone Attack Near Iranian Air Base, Nuclear Site – News18

Israel-Iran News LIVE: Iran fired air defence batteries on Friday after reports emerged about explosions near a major air base in the city of Isfahan. However, it remained unclear if the country was under attack, but tensions remained high after Iran’s unprecedented missile-and-drone attack on Israel.

State media outlet IRNA said the defences fired across several provinces. It did not elaborate on what caused the batteries to fire, though people across the area reported hearing the sounds. Israel vowed to respond to Iran’s unprecedented weekend attack, leaving the region bracing for further escalation after months of fighting in Gaza. Allies have urged Israel to hold back on any response to the attack that could spiral.
