Israeli missiles hit site in Iran: US official
Israeli missiles reportedly struck a site in Iran on Thursday, according to US media, citing an official. This comes days after Iran launched retaliatory drone strikes on Israel. Iranian state media reported an explosion in Isfahan province, home to several nuclear sites. Iran suspended flights over multiple cities, while some airlines rerouted flights away from Iranian airspace. Tensions have escalated amid the Israel-Gaza conflict, with Iran warning Israel against further “military adventurism.” Analysts warn of risks of the Gaza war spilling over regionally as Iran-backed groups pledge support for Palestinians. The reports caused oil prices to jump. (photo/reuters)
