Iran responds to Israel strikes after a failed talk at Geneva; Iran’s near immediate response had been relatively small with an Israeli official calling it a “small barrage” that was largely intercepted by Israel’s defences

Israel struck a nuclear research facility in Isfahan in Iran early Saturday, killing three senior Iranian commanders. Iran followed by launching counter missile attacks on central Israel as the war between the two nations continued into a second week.
Iran’s near immediate response had been relatively small with an Israeli official calling it a “small barrage” that was largely intercepted by Israel’s defences. This was the second attack on Isfahan, which was hit in the first 24-hours of the war with Israel’s goal to destroy Iran’s nuclear program.
