Drone attack in Isfahan, central #Iran

Four explosions targeting a facility developing advanced weapons

Israel is silent, "but most Western intelligence & Iranian sources have credit the Mossad with similarly successful attacks"

jpost.com/middle-east/ir…

Video of the "second blast" in Isfahan, #Iran

Israel has conducted such attacks Iran
—Natanz nuclear facility, July 2020
—Natanz nuclear facility, April 2021
—nuclear facility at Karaj, June 2021
—destroying around 120 or more Iranian drones in Feb 2022
Iran's response matches those after similar incidents
Tehran is known to initially pretend that the attacks failed & only acknowledged the extent of the damage when satellite photos or other evidence broke into the public sphere, outflanking their denials.

#BREAKING
One person is killed and two wounded when a shooter opened fire at a guard post outside Azerbaijan’s embassy in Tehran, #Iran, Azerbaijan’s foreign ministry says.
#UPDATE
—Attack at 8:30 am local time
—A member of the Azerbaijan Embassy's security detail killed
—One shooter reportedly arrested

Note—This could be a false flag operation by the regime to divert attention away from today's anticipated protests in Sistan & Baluchestan Province Image
#UPDATE
More footage from the scene

My take:
Looks very much like the false flag "terrorist attack" in Shiraz, south-central #Iran, on October 26, 2022.
