Israel hits target in Iran's central province of Isfahan in limited strike
(Sharecast News) - Israel struck a target in the central Iranian province of Isfahan, where the country's nuclear installations are located.
According to two officials cited by CBS News, the BBC's U.S. partner, an Israeli missile had struck Iran.
The retaliatory strike follows an Iranian attack with over 300 drones and missiles during the previous weekend which caused only minor damage at one Israeli air force base as 99% of the drones and missiles were downed mid-flight.
Euro/dollar initially fell and Brent crude oil futures gained upon learning of the Israeli move, but had since retraced a large part of those moves.
