Flights were grounded across much of Iran as Israel fired a missile at the country in the early hours of this morning.
The world has been waiting for Israeli retaliation since Iran lobbed some 300 drones and missiles at the country last week.
Video footage shows a series of explosions in the sky over Isfahan as Iran’s air defence system shoots it down.
Flights were suspended in several Iranian cities due to the attack, including from Tehran International Airport.
They have now resumed.
Israel’s attack seems limited in scale, but it struck at the heart of Iran’s nuclear programme.
Former US assistant secretary of state Mark Kimmitt told BBC: ‘It’s a likely site that Israel would hit because the greatest fear the Israelis have is not continued missiles today but a nuclear capability tomorrow.’
