Explosion shakes Isfahan: Israel attacks Iranian nuclear facilities!
Isfahan, Iran - on Friday evening, June 13, 2025, a massive explosion in Iran shook the world. In Isfahan, where there is a central nuclear system, eyewitnesses reported an "enormous explosion", which was also clearly heard in the area, as Vol.at reports. This happened in the course of a large -scale attack by Israel, which included around 200 fighter planes and targeted several strategic goals in Iran, including the well -known nuclear facility in Natan and military locations in Tehran.
The Israeli army chief Eyal Zamir said that the offensive against Iran would continue “with full strength”. In the evening, several Iranian drones were intercepted by Israeli air defense via Tehran and also via Syrian territory. There were debris to the ground, but fortunately there were no injuries, as the reports confirm.
insights into the explosions
In addition, two explosions were heard near the Fordow nuclear facility. This is located deep below a mountain where it is protected by anti -aircraft guns. Current pictures show rising black smoke, but according to the first reports there were no reports of major damage. This facility has been known since 2009 when Iran informed the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) about its existence. In the past few months, Western secret services have already found an increased risk in connection with the Iranian nuclear program, which is why a resolution of the IAEA Gouvenor Council, which was initiated by the West, asked Iran to collaboration.The background of the explosions are still unclear. However, the area west of the capital Tehran is known for military facilities, which indicates that an air force base could have been a possible goal. Experts are based on secret service information that indicates that Iran may work secretly on the production of an atomic bomb, which is referred to as "Point of No Return", so zdf.de.
international reactions and consequences
The tensions in the Middle East reach a new climax. While the western states support Israel, there are concerns that military attacks only delay the Iran nuclear program, but cannot stop. US President Donald Trump expressed hope that Iran will return to the negotiating table after these recent attacks. The risk of a broader military escalation is currently high, also because proiran militias in Iraq and other regions could possibly intervene in conflict.
The result could be an even more confusing situation in the entire Middle East. Experts warn that Iran may be able to develop an operational nuclear weapon in just one to two years as soon as the political decisions are made. In this context, the conflict over the Iranian nuclear program is increasingly gaining in explosive.
The developments remain tense and the international community observes the situation.
