Iranian officials suspect that Israel was behind a series of blasts that rocked the Islamic Republic over the past month, The New York Times reported on July 22.
While officially the mysterious blasts hitting apartment buildings, oil facilities, and factories have been blamed on aging infrastructure, three Iranian officials, including a member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, told the newspapers that they suspect these were acts of sabotage orchestrated by Israel.
A European official who deals with Iran also told the newspaper that he suspects Israel is involved in the recent wave of blasts.
Some locations where blasts were reported involved key infrastructure, such as a fire that killed one person over the weekend, while others, at apartments and a shoe factory, are sowing a feeling of chaos, according to the report.
Publicly, Iran has blamed the incidents on a range of causes, including gas leaks, garbage fires, and dilapidated infrastructure.
The Iranian officials who spoke to The New York Times said that the Islamic Republic was not formally accusing Israel, as that would put it in a position of needing to respond.
Just a day after the release of the report, a fire broke out at Isfahan University of Technology, with authorities blaming it on electricity outages.
The latest incidents began following the end of Israel’s 12-day war on Iran last month. During the war, Israel killed dozens of the Islamic Republic’s top military leaders, nuclear scientists. It also targeted key nuclear facilities and offensive capabilities, including missile factories. Iranian authorities have said about 1,000 people were killed.
Israeli officials declined to comment on The New York Time’s report. Last month, Mossad chief David Barnea said that Israel inflicted significant damage on Iran but indicated that Israel needs to continue its operations against the Islamic Republic.
Notably, in the weeks leading to the last war a similar series of blasts and fires was reported all over Iran, with the Islamic Republic declining to officially blame Israel.

israel will always make something look like an accident if they can. for all their faults, one thing they do get right is that they don’t do chest-thumping like other countries, they are fixated on their objectives and don’t care if nobody detects them or ever knows they were there
ffs! take a peek at gaza and listen to the depraved rodents in tel aviv screeching like vampires
these kikes never stop what a cancer, they must be eliminated
100% truth
think of it this way. the jew spends most of his time plotting, scheming, killing, stealing, cheating and lying. at some point, the jew will become an expert in criminal behavior. but when it comes to figuring out ways to peace, civilized behavior and diplomacy….the jew offers nothing…absolutely….nothing. because he is diseased with hate, revenge and remorseless narcissism
the first casualty of war is the truth. they lie, they get told lies they get deceived” and the deceivers themselves shall be deceived ” and one central source runs the entire framework of the apparatus of illusions. and nothing is what it seems.
this is all scripted by the democracies of the world. it’s like watching wwf, or like the good cop bad cop routine.
how is it possible that we croats and our sister nation, the poles, knew that the whahabbies is a genocidal race, if the people of syria, who lived with them in the same country, did not notice this until it was too late? is shiism, as practiced by the druze and alawites, harmful to intellectual development? are iranians also a mentally challenged nation?
syria is not a homogenous country like poland or croatia. it is a federated, artificial state drawn up by france and england. one group – the sunnis, were disenchanted during assad’s reign. they were preyed on by outside powers and given false promises. now they face the mirror and the music. and it will be uglier than assad. sunni islam is unfortunate and prone to much more infighting than shi’ism will ever be
al jazeera caused all of this with false information, and now al jazeera journalists are clay pigeons for the israel defense forces.
qatar’s emir thani is to blame because not equipping journalists with heavy machine guns so they could fire back.
the jooz have murdered 240 journalists – and their families – for telling the truth.
milena doesn’t know that poles and croats are one nation. they are not two, they are one nation, but i don’t know why they are in two states.
croats and russians are one nation. russian priests sent women to prison for dancing in the church. the croatian pastor smashed three angelic tourists because they were in the church in swimwear. of these, one woman. he used a kick and a broom and was dressed in a mass dress although there were not believers in the church. catherine perez-shakdam brags that she managed to play a muslim woman and convince the old stupid ayatollah that she was a muslim woman.
that’s nothing, i would dare go dressed in a woman and show a cock.
but i would go to the ayatollah office and show a pussy khamenei like pussy riot show pussy in the russian church.
with a croatian diplomatic passport, i will go to greet khamenei and show him a cock, and i will be dressed in a woman.
i will invite catherine perez-shakdam to watch me as i go to khamenei and throw away clothes like roxanne press (perez) on press tv.
are jooz just an evil, satanic, demonic nation?
dead iranians smell like shit too…heheheh
how’s life in canada as a hohol who is too afraid to go to the front and fight russia?
i hope that the israeli settlers will smell the syrian gas and come along with their armed wives, because israelis, croatians, and poles are one nation. and the pig jolani will pay for the genocide against unarmed idiots who were willing to lay down their weapons and die (for stupidity).
live jooz smell worse than shit heheheheh
i always found it strange how quickly the beirut enormous explosion (looked like a mini-nuke) was blamed on the lebanese government and their alleged corruption. almost as soon as it happened they were pointing the finger at the lebanese government and no other alternatives were allowed. i don’t remember seeing fertilizer go up like that before.
iran is over two and a half times bigger than ukraine with ninety three million inhabitants. those pathetic attacks are like a mosquito bite.
i don’t get why israel and the us didn’t destroy kharg island. i mean if they were willing to kill the ayatollah and all the military leadership crossing the reddest of all lines why was kharg spared?
i honestly feel that the iranian leadership is begging to be assassinated by israel. these strikes are not the opportunity to counterstrike because they are too small but the way iran handles israeli aggression is nothing short of cowardice.
