Israeli missile hits Iran, US officials say | BBC News

An Israeli missile has hit Iran, US officials have told the BBC's partner station CBS News.

Iranian state media cited unconfirmed reports of explosions being heard around the central city of Isfahan, saying three drones were destroyed after the country's air defence systems were activated.

Iran has been on high alert after Israel said it would respond to the more than 300 Iranian missiles and drones fired at Israel on Saturday night.

“There are fears of an escalation in the Middle East conflict” - this is said after an actual escalation 😂

Israelis own minister is making fun of how weak this response was and yet western media will try its best to make it look like israel is an unbeatable powerhouse

Wars are started by old rich men who all know each other, and are fought by poor young men who don't know each other.

*Since when is Quadcopters considered Missiles 😂😂😂*

[utubebroadcaster]

Apparently the missile knocked over a large milkshake cup

What's weird about this attack is that even after watching so many videos reporting on it I still don't know wether iran successfully defended itself and the was no damage, or Israel actually hit them..

[medievaldigger]

Clearly this was a restrained measured response. Lecturing on nuclear targets was ridiculous because it wasn’t targeted.

You really don’t think Iran is going to tell the truth do you?

I don't know why I just clicked on this, I've never trusted what the BBC says😮

The cycle of hatred. Conflicts everywhere.

[Donstradamus]

Man (US)we need to stay out of this 💩….

[davidcurtiswatts]

Is this the quality of a BBC anchor these days?

[Medqen]

Im here in tabriz
No explosions
No sirens
Just bought chips to enjoy the pathetic propaganda

[Raybod]

Where are the videos of hit or damage?

[Kraken]

Gross. I clicked without checking and realized it was BBC a minute in.

[b.tedley]

The headline is misleading. It implies it was accidental, or the missiles launched themselves 😂

[noysreyhoung]

May the world live in peace. Everyone must say “ I don’t like war “.

[carlitocash]

What happened to them responding within seconds? I guess that was all fluff

[BehshadSamimi]

I dont know why nobody in isfahan see a missile hit the ground but western media did 😂😂😂 it was only 3 drones and they were shot down

[OutWestC]

They both are not really attacking with full might they are just testing to see what both defenses are like.
