Iran has for the first time officially blamed Israel for a drone strike on a key defense facility in the city of Isfahan, filing a complaint with the United Nations Security Council about the “terrorist attack” launched by the Jewish state and saying it reserves its “legitimate and inherent right” to retaliate.
In the letter sent Wednesday and published Thursday, Iranian Ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani said he wanted to draw the UN’s attention to “further instances of the Israeli regime’s acts of terrorism and sabotage as well as violations of international law against the Islamic Republic of Iran.”
The letter said that on Saturday, “an attempt was made to launch a terrorist attack against a workshop complex of the Iranian Defence Ministry in the city of Isfahan.”
It claimed that three micro-drones were launched, with two being intercepted. “Early investigations suggest that the Israeli regime was behind this attempted act of aggression.”
