According to Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, Iran’s foreign minister, they took off and flew for just a few hundred meters before being shot down.
Although Israel has not responded, it is generally assumed that it is the cause of the attack on an airbase and nuclear facility close to Isfahan.
Israel had “at the last minute” notified the US of the attack, the US stated during a G7 summit.
After Iran launched an unprecedented drone and missile strike on Israel last weekend, Israel has been considering its options, with the West advising caution.
“We haven’t been shown any evidence linking these to Israel,” Mr. Amir-Abdollahian stated.
