Iran said on Friday it had arrested the “main perpetrators” behind a recent drone attack on a military site in the city of Isfahan, again pointing the finger of blame at Israel.
The involvement of Israel’s “mercenaries” in the attack has been “proven,” state media reported, citing a joint statement by the Intelligence Ministry and the intelligence arm of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
