Some aerial objects were shot down by Iranian air defense. Some videos circulating about the impact on Ispahan are fake. No aerial objects hit ground targets in Tabriz, all sounds were a result of interceptors exploding over Tabriz's sky.

Iranian air defense forces shot down several drones in the sky over Isfahan, Iranian television reported.
Previously, the American TV channel ABC News reported that Israel had launched a missile attack on Iran. According to media reports, explosions thundered in the area of the airport of the city of Isfahan and the 8th base of the Iranian Air Force, air defense systems worked there.
According to the Fars news agency, three explosions were heard in Isfahan, air defense forces were presumably involved due to the appearance of small drones. A possible target of the UAV could be an army radar station. Also, windows were broken in several office buildings in the vicinity.
According to the Tasnim news agency, the nuclear facilities in Isfahan are completely safe.
According to the state agency IRNA, air defense forces repelled the attack in other provinces of Iran as well. In particular, the sound of the explosion was heard in the west of Tabriz and in the area of Wadi e Rahmat. The country's authorities canceled flights over Tehran, Isfahan and Shiraz.

This is basically a disinformation campaign to save Bibi Netanyahu's face than an actual effective air strike on Iranian targets. It seems that what we have witnessed is nothing more than a media "bubble" to mislead Iranian and international public opinion.

[H3]Western officials say Israel just 'testing the waters'[/H3]
Nafiseh Kohnavard
BBC Persian correspondent
Iranians woke up to reports of a "micro drones" attack on a military site in Isfahan, central Iran.
Some western officials with knowledge of Israel's possible retaliation against Iran's unprecedented drone and missile attack on Israel believe that this is only "the first stage".
"The strategy is: Minor attack to make Iran react for a major response on the nuclear sites", according to a western diplomat in Lebanon.
Meanwhile, a western military official says that based on reports from Syria and Iran - indicating that some essential radars were the target of drone strikes in both countries, "Israelis are kind of mirroring Iran and its allies like Hezbollah by first trying to destroy radars, creating false or delusive targets as well as trying to damage the radars to disable interception systems," they said.
There is still a lot of contradictory information coming out from Iran regarding the incident, with IRGC-linked media Tasnim denying "any attack on Iran" quoting "informed sources".
While some Iranian officials told media that "there won't be any reaction from Iran to the incident".
But the question is, was this really Israel's expected retaliation? Western officials I talked to believe it was not. They tell me it is only a "trap" to "test the waters."

Countries around the globe have been calling on both Iran and Israel to show restraint after this latest strike, amid fears the conflict could escalate across the region.

• UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak avoids commenting on reports of an Israeli attack on Iran, saying it "wouldn't be right for me to speculate until the facts become clearer". He repeats calls for de-escalation: "Significant escalation is not in anyone's interest. What we want to see is calm heads prevail across the region."
• China also calls for de-escalation. Foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said "China opposes any actions that further escalate tensions and will continue to play a constructive role to de-escalate the situation."
• Egypt, a key player in the mediation efforts between Hamas and Israel, says that they are deeply concerned about an escalation of hostilities between Israel and Iran. A foreign ministry statement warned of the consequences of expanding the conflict and instability in the region.
• Turkey also calls on all parties to refrain from steps that could lead to a wider conflict. A foreign ministry statement said it was becoming "increasingly obvious" that the tensions between Iran and Israel following the attack on 1 April risked "turning into a permanent conflict".
• Germany pleads for restraint, with the government spokesman Steffen Hebestreit saying "De-escalation must be the advice of the hour, we must prevent a conflagration at all costs," adding that it goes to "all sides".

Tehran plays down reported Israeli attacks, signals no retaliation.

It's clear Israel is following "Hold me back Bro" principle to save face at this time...very wise for the Iranians not to respond.
