Israel carried out a strike against Iran overnight, a U.S. official tells NPR. Iran state media reports that according to Iranian Brigadier General Mihan Dost, the loud booms heard east of Isfahan were the sounds of Iranian air defenses intercepting an "unknown object." The central city of Isfahan is home to sites associated with Iran's nuclear program. The International Atomic Agency says there's been no damage to Iran's nuclear sites. The strike comes less than a week after Iran's retaliatory drone and missile attack on Israel. Israel's military and prime minister's office have not yet responded to NPR's request for comment.
