Noted - one would assume then that even though Iran's air defences were pretty much destroyed in the last strikes, this time IAF jets flew into Iraqi air space and launched stand off weapons from there, given the range restrictions of those jets and limited air-to-air refueling capability of the IAF.
The rumoured Israeli RA-01 drone and the new Golden Horizon stand off weapon may have been used in Iranian air space to attack more distant sites in eastern Iran.
Lots of questions though under those assumptions. How can a stand off weapon pack enough punch to extensively damage a site like Natanz?
