"Several drones were spotted over Iraq an hour ago, meaning they are likely to arrive at Israel within the next couple of hours, if they are not shot down earlier by the IAF," source reads.
Earlier, on the night of June 13, the Israeli Defense Forces launched strikes on Iranian territory. The head of Iran's Atomic Energy Agency confirmed that the Natanz reactor, one of the country's most important nuclear facilities, was destroyed.
