The Iranian defence ministry says it has foiled a drone attack on a military facility in the city of Isfahan.
The ministry said three drones were involved but there were no casualties.
One drone was destroyed by air defence systems and two were caught by “defence traps”, causing minor damage to a building, the ministry added.
The extent of damage to the site has not been confirmed by the BBC, and there has been no immediate claim of responsibility.
It comes amid heightened tensions over Iran’s nuclear programme and its supply of arms to Russia’s war in Ukraine.
[For them “foiling” it, the one video clip I saw last night showed a pretty impressive fireball soaring skyward from the ground, NTM three cities were involved according to those reports. Their PR department can stretch the truth. ~ Beege]
