(Telegraph-UK) James Rothwell - Israel's attack on Iran appears to have been a precise strike that took out the key part of a Russian-made air defense system at a key air base at Isfahan. Satellite imagery showed a "flip radar" component of the S-300 air defense battery either damaged or destroyed on Friday. Israeli defense analyst Ronen Solomon said: "From what we have seen, Israel's strike intended to neutralize Iran's air defense advanced systems that cover Natanz and Isfahan's nuclear sites that are involved in enrichment and could convert it to a uranium metal for a bomb. This is like a yellow card in football before the red card that is a full strike to destroy them."
