At about 9 o'clock this morning, I was shocked by a mobile phone push news - explosions were heard in many places in Iran!
In particular, the names Isfahan and Natanz are reminiscent of Iran's nuclear facilities.
Isfahan is not only home to the primary processing facility for uranium mines in Iran's nuclear facilities, but also has F-14A fighter jets deployed.
And Natanz is an important place for enriching uranium.
Could it be that the Israeli Air Force has finally made a move?
More news followed, with explosions in Iraq, southern Syria, and even rumors of an airstrike on the headquarters of Shiite militias in Iraq.
I quickly turned on Flightradar24 and found that the planes over Iran were evasive, and the situation seemed to be not optimistic.
However, when I dug deeper, it seemed that things were not so simple.
The video of the alleged launch of missiles by the Israeli Air Force circulating on the network is either a crude CG or an old video.
And the local news in Isfahan is also confused, some say the explosion was outside the city, others say it didn't explode at all.
Immediately afterwards, the explosions in Iraq and southern Syria were confirmed to be daily events and had nothing to do with the explosions in Isfahan.
And the air defense sirens in northern Israel, which the Western media have exaggerated, are just daily attacks by Allah Lebanon.
As it dawned in Iran, the Tasnim news agency rushed to the scene and sent back real-time footage of Isfahan and other places.
In the picture, whether it is a city, a military base, or a nuclear facility, everything is intact, there are no explosions, no smoke, everything is as before.
At this time, the operation of the United States and Israel is even more puzzling.
First, "U.S. officials" told ABC that Israeli fighter jets hit targets inside Iran, and then quickly denied any involvement in the U.S. and Israeli air force airstrikes.
Which one is this singing?
The latest news is even more ridiculous: an Israeli "security official" confirmed that the attack was carried out by the military, but the credibility of this "security official" has been greatly reduced.
In the end, the Iranian side found that the attack on Isfahan at night was actually several small suicide drones, but they had all been shot down by Iranian air defense forces.
The so-called explosions in Isfahan are nothing more than the sound of explosions fired by the Iranian air defense forces in the air.
Looking back on the whole incident, it looks more and more like a big oolong.
So, what exactly should we look at this attack?
First of all, we simply do not know who initiated the attack.
In retrospect, the alleged cross-border air strikes or missile launches by Israeli fighter jets hitting targets are all fake news.
But the explosion in Isfahan did exist, suggesting that drones were involved in the attack.
This may be the work of opposition forces in Iran, or it may be the lone behavior of Israeli far-right groups or secret service groups.
Second, the U.S. role in the attack was comical.
The unknown and unidentified "American official" and the reaction of the United States in this matter are inexplicable.
This makes one wonder whether the United States had a plan for this matter and is trying to take the opportunity to muddy the waters.
In the end, the performance-art airstrikes, while seemingly ineffective, threaten to further polarize public opinion in Israel.
Many far-right forces can't wait to put pressure on the government to make a decisive move to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities into the sky!
In short, what happened in the early hours of April 19 in Isfahan, Iran, was like an absurdist drama.
Let's put it aside for now, and it's important to focus on Israel's reaction next.
What kind of countermeasures will Israel choose in the future after making such a big oolong,
Whether it will choose to increase the size is really worthy of our attention.
We will always pay close attention to this.
