What happened
Israel carried out an airstrike inside Iran early Friday, U.S., Israeli and Iranian officials said. The limited attack was “intended to signal to Iran that Israel had the ability to strike inside the country” after Iran’s drone and missile barrage last weekend, said The Washington Post, citing Israeli officials. Iranian officials said Israel hit a military air base near Isfahan, The New York Times said, though “the scale and method of the attack were unclear.”
