Iran launches drone attack on Israel, Israel closes airspace
In the early hours of April 13, 2024, a group of Iranian drones left the country's airspace and headed toward Israel. The report, published by the *Jerusalem Post* at 22:52 Spanish time, confirms that the fleet, made up of dozens of units, was detected by Israeli and US intelligence.
The same day, the Israeli government closed its airspace as a preventive measure. Comments from military sources indicate that the *Iron Dome* air defense system was activated to intercept the drones, although it is unknown how many were shot down.
At the same time, it was reported that Israel plans a "significant response" to the attack. In public statements, it was suggested that the Israeli air force could launch missiles at Iranian targets if the escalation continues.
An additional point that has generated debate is the Israeli attack on a radar protecting the Natanz nuclear complex. According to an article by *okdiario.com*, Israel would have bombed the radar, which could open the door to future strikes on Iran's nuclear program.
The exact number of drones and their origin, the cost of the intercepts and the details of the attack on the Natanz radar are the data that differentiate this episode from other news in the area.
