- World leaders have called for restraint in the Middle East, after a missile strike on Iran at a site close to nuclear facilities.
It took place at Isfahan in the centre of Iran, where there is an airbase, several nuclear sites, and a missile factory.
US officials called it an Israeli missile strike. Iranian media said drones were involved. Israel has not commented officially on what happened.
Iran has played down the incident but said it shot down a number of drones. There were also reports of explosions in Syria and Iraq.
The US Secretary of State Antony Blinken stressed the importance of lowering tension in the Middle East. He refused to comment on reports that Israel had informed Washington of its actions ahead of the attacks.
It comes after Iran fired more than 300 drones and missiles at Israel, in retaliation for an airstrike on Iran’s consulate in Syria which killed several Iranian top military officers.
Jane Hill presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Lucy Williamson in Jerusalem, Sarah Smith in Washington and chief international correspondent Lyse Doucet.

Whats with the choice of the misleading image in the thumbnail??
Its probally fake. They really want war with Iran to increase war profiteering and money laundering.
Slow news day. And More like new to the world.
Lol I see that in all TH-cam channels😅they do it get more views.
BBC just reported that at least 5 Iranians have died from laughter
rusya, chayna, eran LOVES FALSE FLAGS
Iran News: Nothing happened.
Also Iran News: Everything is back to normal. 🙄🤫
Khomeni's propaganda machine at work.
Zionist Israeli media in full swing in glorifying 3 quadcopters flying in Iran's air space ...
?.?

My name is Michael and I'm from Nimba county, Republic of Liberia.
I do not support war in any country, what I do support is peace.
As a Librarian, I experienced war which was not even between countries but amongst the Liberian citizens.
Imagine, there were no advance weaponry in that war but it was quite unprecedented.
I still live with those memories.
In short, I say NO to war and YES to peace.
War has no winner!
🇱🇷🇱🇷❤
peace be with you, brother.
I dunno, your arguement sounds like a pro Kremlin statement.
Most mature and underrated comment.
Nobody gives a fcuk what you think...
How come the drones converted to missiles by the Western media? 😂😂😂
It’s literally the same thing but with wings
because they were missiles, heatsignitures from us satellites prove that, iran was only claiming they were quadcopters in order to calm their population
Iran said they where drones but now they are known to be missiles
@@HrHcasper really? they fly around like we saw in the videos? does your boyfriend have wings too or 3 legs? lol
@@ariaspes3842 what’s even funnier is how you’re reporting my comments to get them removed
The story has shifted from nuke facility attacked, to attack near a nuke facility, to attack on an airfield. The story has morphed with "nuke" scare tactics in the tabloids.
exactly. Filthy deceptive journalists doing what they do best. Lying
No image, no proof
Agree, like in religions. Where's the evidence? Lolol
How the fvck do you take an image of "NO" damage?🤣🤣🤣
Iran not allowing any news reporter on the site

@@rukk_tx5285 Lol what's even the point of bringing religion in there ? 😆 Except that talmudic jews are massacring christians and muslims to get exclusivity of holy Jerusalem 😆
😂They have attacked with pizza drones, and you see this BBC headline
Iran to Israel: 300 missiles launched 3 hits.
Israel to Iran: 3 missiles launched 3 hits.
Sounds about right.
Yes because of the help of the United States 🇺🇸 💯
@@NuYoRican718 The Muslim world is free to unite ANY time it wants to "help" Iran. Any time. So don't go whinging and moaning about Israel getting any help (not that it actually needs it) from its allies. If Israel is any way "vulnerable" without the US Iran could always have chosen to "destroy" it last year or any time before that.
I lives in I sfahan, there was no explosion in Isfahan.
do you search for any other news???/ like WTF are you doing??? th-cam.com/video/u62BCkSMNCY/w-d-xo.html
Long live Andrew Tate. "Imaginary Sophie" 😂😂😂. You can never win. The truth always wins
Israel is being erratic. Iran will not retaliate directly but look at how hard of a time Israel is having to defeat Hamas. When Hezbollah gets more involved it will escalate the conflict further. My heart goes to the civilians in Gaza and the Israeli hostages held by Hamas.
Your "heart"? You have one? 70 years of putting 2+ million Palestinians in the largest open air prison in the world by Israel and USA and you think nothing of it?. Mass arrest of Palestinians without trial to be put in torture chambers and you think nothing of it? Blockade of food, water and medicine into Gaza to starve Palestinian children and make them suffer from illness and you think nothing of it?. Now you feel for the couple of hundred Israeli hostages? Just how disgusting and callous have you people become.?
Iran has a right to defend itself.
And so does Israel against its hostile neighbours all around.
@@ArunKumar-xv4qn the neighbors all regard israel as the fox in the henhouse

Israel :Every country has right to defend like Iran.🤣
I bet you were calling for Iran to be burnt to the ground after the young girl was killed over a hijab last year and now look at you...🐑 😂😂
Disappointed did he say?! These lot are hungry for war😮
They have no idea what war can do to them even indirectly. The citizens know what their leaders tell them about the national might and ego. They do not know that the leaders have so many variables to figure out before escalating anything. War is so harmful and should be avoided even if it means hurting ones ego.
Western medias : " israel (we) sent them 2 kid's drones flying around, look they don't retaliate !" 😭
Putlers fabulous haemorrhoids they are visible from space fantastic to gaze upon each larger than the last
Putlers fabulous hemoroids they are visible from space
It was not a missile strike because as we know a missile launch can be detected by, and the fragments can be forensically investigated. But there was no detection, so it had to be drones which have limitations. Israel has not announced nor claimed an attack. So Iran rightly attributes the explosions to accidents. But Iran knows Israel has used drones on its territories, so defences will be tightened over coming years to a point when one feels it is safe enough for it to attack without the other having the ability to retaliate. The best laid plans of mouse and men...
“Fuels Fears”. Can you insert “Media” before that?
“News” from British Propaganda Corporation
so 3 shot down cardboard drones are now missiles strike 🤔
Imagine believing Iran 😂
@@Holden_McHock😂😂
@@Holden_McHock imagine believing western msm propaganda that couldnt show the clear video of missiles that hit isreal airbase but we somehow should believe their story this time with no evidence to back it off
@@Holden_McHock yeah we should believe western msm propaganda that couldnt somehow show the videos of the iranian missiles that hit isreal air base but 3 shot down drones are missiles that hit something 🤭
israel destroyed a radar site in Iran. Israel entered iran defense zone. Iran is impotent
Iran shouldn't defend itself from Israel because thats antisemitic , antisemitism is not acceptable
since when
For the Iran regime this is just a game to deflect the fact that all their own people hate them. For Israel this the next holocaust. The Mossad has been planning for this for 20 years. Everybody trying to guess what Israel can and can't do have no clue. They just showed by way of psychological warfare that they can hit any target in Iran, any time, and without warning. The regime should just just up and call it a day and pick a fight with someone else. Looks like they are getting the message.
That’s absolute nonsense
Israel is defending itself here lol. Iran were always terroristic one.
That has been the play so far.
Hitting iran? Where? With what? Oh those three pizza delivery drones??
Those pizza delivery drones probable made more damages than the hundreds of missiles and drones of Iran. What air defense doing is not Israelian lingo. LOL
I believe you don't want what you are clamouring for. Say no to war in all its entirety!
@@olafsigursons
those 300 drones caused you quarter billion dollar to protect in 1 day imagine keeping up to that... You have apsolutly no chance
i think they sent those drones to test if they had proper air defense systems in place
😂😂😂Iran air defence system failed that's what is more important than number of drones
I feel (I could be horribly horribly wrong). I feel there are too many inconsistencies.
Stop the violence
Not until Iran government is stop for its evil.
Wheres the Photos or Videos of the damages??
'Religion poisons everything'- Christopher Hitchens.
Yes, people are supporting Palestine only because it's islamic.
Yeah what a conclusion, as if secular governments weren’t and aren’t the greatest warmongers in the last 300 years and going.
It's all about European colonialism plz don't drag religions(which suits your narratives) into this distinctive conflict
Organized religion
Lol you have no idea if you think its just cuz of religion
Iran was aiming at Al-Aqsa Mosque, so basically Israel prevented its destruction. The irony. 🤔
Do you have satellite image that confirms the hit, it is missile it should be observed easily
She expected more from Iran 😅😅😅
It looks fake. It's a poor man's fireworks display.
Since Iranian filmed them with potatoes 😂
They vows to attack nuclear sites and send iran to stone age, and now this is their response to iran😂😂😂
GOD SHOW LOVE AND PEACE UPON YOUR PEOPLE 🙏🏽
Iran: 'we will review our nuclear option'
The world: 'you dont actually have nuclear weapons'
Iran: 'oh....shieeeet!'
It's an open secret that they do.
In an interview, the foreign minister said that means reviewing the policy of not producing nuclear weapons & the potential of changing that.
USA is working on the Atom Laser; thanks to Sathya Bose and Einstein : condensate.
wellll they are allies with russia, and maybe a dodgy oligrach might have access to one maybe an old one or something that could be passed to iran and russia would not be involved directly to face consequences and it would see destabilization in a region where the usa needs it. all im saying is i dont doubt even if they dont have any of their own that they couldnt procure them under the right circumstances. We live in very dangerous times and nobody should be seen as harmless as this we must all understand how dangerous the various parties involved in this situation are.
Israel has quite a few.
There was no 'Israeli missile strike' on Iran. There were three drones that were intercepted by Iranian air defence missiles. Get your facts verified before broadcasting.
Are both countries really willing to fight full scale war?
No
Hear no evil, see no evil.
Comment no evil.
300km is not really what I would call near.
There was no missile strike please do better reporting.
Suckers israel destroyed a radar site in Iran. Israel entered iran defense zone. Iran is impotent

they propagate fake news on behalf of israel
In the language of quarrels, what is happening between Iran and Israel is the foolishness of the wrestlers in their television show before getting into the wrestling ring. As for the two coaches, they are Vladimir Putin 💀 and Joe Biden 👾
Listening to news outlets these days blowing things out of proportion is like listening to a bunch of playful 10 year old kids yapping and yelling at the same time desperately competing to get your attention.
No escalation and wasn't even that big a deal. A small warning, neither side has acknowledged much at all. Let's move on
It looks fake. A poor man's fireworks display.
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matthew 24:6-8
nonsense
The world never really stopped been at war.
@@santostv. Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lust, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 2 Peter 3:3-4
well why did you start 3 wars at once ..??? hmmm
if that is true, it's very dangerous
Humm I wonder what will happen. Could the Iranians be capable of using a dirty bomb?
iran is at least more rational... dangerous is is. with nukes in their hands...
Lol
Yes
Let’s not call this a strike, this was merely a message to demonstrate Iran how easy is for them to penetrate the air defenses. They shot Blue Sparrow missiles (this is the same missile used for testing our own air defense systems) without an active warhead, and targeting dirt spots right next to possible targets.
So, in response to being showered by Iran, with 300 drones and missiles - Israel retaliated
with about 10 drones!
Well, that will teach Iran a good lesson!
How about in response to Iranian retaliation against Israeli aggression, Israel tried to start another round of missile exchanges.
It was a mosquito attack. Israel is such a joke trying to act tough. Very funny though
I’m actually for once happy, well happy might be too strong - with the reporting of this by the BBC, something I thought I would never say
I heard it was just Taylor swift throwing a big party for Taylor swift day. The evolution of self proclaiming your own " birthday month "
Anyone notice the changing world outside their own front door. The devaluation of our currency the increase in prices constantly. All about distracting us with these firework displays thousands of miles away.
It's like you stopped doing the homework halfway.
By that i mean, you notice the changes around you but you dont see the big picture and understand how important gloabal stability is to modern prosperity.
The devaluation of all currencies around the world, fiat currencies are actually fake currencies
Money needs to come from somewhere, with a old population this seems to be the result , prices change according to the commodity market,production,demand ect.
People already get distracted by non issues and against their own countrymen ,most people are dumb 😂
Divide and conquer
The drones must be from Stark Industries. Launched as drones but transformed to missiles in the middle of the way.
The game of Gaza is over جاء الحق وزهق الباطل أن الباطل كان زهوقا صدق الله العظيم
The ball is in iran's court
Score:1/0
1/1 I'd say.
Israel killed the generals, Iran struck Israeli air field.
This recent attack was literally nothing but some Israeli backed proxy with a toy drone
Stop milking this old story. At the rate they are attacking each other, this will sound like last year's news
Scary.
How the fuck I ended up in this fake BBC news?
Iran has a right to defend itself
From who?
They're the ones funding Hamas,Hezbollah and other terrorist organisations.
So what about Israel?
@@Proud_ogadenia_ethiopia yeah and let Israel live in peace on their land. But your Palestinians and Hamas would never let them live in peace because of Jewish hatred so it's gonna carry on until God knows when.
@@ArunKumar-xv4qn india had food under persian rule and now begging israel for bread? lol
Iran attacked Israel 1st on Oct 7 using Palestinian terrorists
Okay as usual they try to grab your attention by giving news that happened overnight which is approximately 11 hours ago and make it look like a new headline what a joke 2 hours ago😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
All started by a few bad apples...
It wasn’t a missile, It was some mere drones..Your headline is misleading
I call bs… Iran attacking is a response, but ironically it stretches US resources. It helps Russia…but It would be unfortunate timing if china took this opportunity to retake Taiwan…. But unsurprising.
Russia hates Israel and the U.S
Israel has the right to defend itself from Iranian for so many years using proxies from other country for not to blame them. Israel also used F35 for attacking Iran, no damage ? Pictures please🤔
But the only objects entered Iran air space were 3 small drones with a limited travel distance of 100 km maximum..
The drones entered Iran from Iraq more likely..
The Israeli US F35 bombed some locations in Syria and Iraq but not Iran according to different reports.
Other world leaders should mind their own business.
Trying to hush this will only make things worse.
I’m scared… I’m surprised and in fear… I pray Middle East won’t destabilise into WW3…
Well we won't listen to the UN.. ☝️💯
Wtf are you doing looking in my house?
BBC is quite funny. IDF propaganda tool
BBC is actually anti Israeli. And propaganda only exists in the invented people side. The so called "Fakestinians"
Your mom made a good propaganda tools yes you are one of them
Bye felicia!
Suckers israel destroyed a radar site in Iran. Israel entered iran defense zone. Iran is impotent
This is a women only channel 😂
man, why can't people just have peace? I mean when will people realize that we are destroying ourselves
Peace is boring.
US arms company will not make money.
DONT
conflicting money
At least Iran is sensible here…
Ahh like carelessly firing 300+ missiles without thinking where they gonna land or hit, it was just that Israel has a defense system otherwise there will be death and destruction which will have started another war the outcome of which no-one could determine
Is this a News report or a political broadcast by the Likud Party?
Against Gazans who have no air force, navy or iron dome, Israel uses 2000lb bombs.
Against Iran after promising an "immediate and decisive" response, 3 custard pies.
And unlike Israel, Iran weren't desperate for allies to scramble jets to its defense.
Even Ben Gvir called the response "feeble" and for once, he's 100% correct.
The British Broadcasting Corporation, broadcasting any news, apart from British news...you couldn't make it up! 🤷

BBC should be updated itself about The true. And authentic quality news
Let me ask you something else,! What the f*** are you doing looking in my house?
Israel will never Lose!!!!!
I do remember the first days of war between Ukraine and Russia, There was an strange excitement in medias ,What is the outcome of war exept devastation and starvation ,insecurity.what a shame.
That was a powerful statement from Israel- whether it did not cause much damage is insignificant. If anything it provided Israel with good intel of Iran's defense response.
Really poor reporting. Oh what has happenndd to the BBC?
"The fate of all mankind I see is in the hands of FOOLS"
Where is the strike?
ok we believe you ,Israel mini drone changed to Missiles 😀😀😀😀
Did anybody die. Or does no one know
Netanyahu raised his voice at the German foreign minister during the meeting, Israel's Channel 13 reported. This is not only an insult to the minister, but to Germany, which is fond of Israel.
It wasn't only Israel that shoot down Iranian missiles, USA, France and UK,even Egypt and some Arab countries actually helped Israel.
hide and seek no ...what Iran did guts inform before attack
Look east
Three gods play tit for tat as they decide if the Holy Bible is real estate title valid.
World leaders left developing areas to centralized schemes, expecting modernization or power balance.
They endured selection in war or poverty in case of corruption, ochlocracy, or overpopulation.
However, such a “solution” will be unsustainable because it’s becoming risky and costly for any country.
I wish we achieve the sustainable development of human civilization with next-gen techs & policies.
Stop killing. Stop war
Is generational. You will control the future
Arabs ❤brothers 🇺🇸remember that is a distraction.. you own the Oil that is needed for the next 100 years. Keep your eyes 👀 on the oil
finding peace in the middle east is almost mission impossible.
