Iran has fired approximately 200 missiles into Israel today in reprisal for its invasion of Lebanon – but Israel has now vowed to fight back as tensions escalate
After Iran fired approximately 200 missiles today, Israel has promised to strike tonight.
In retaliation for its adversary’s invasion of Lebanon, Iran launched a series of ballistic missile attacks against Benjamin Netanyahu’s nation. This evening, the Israeli military has instructed its citizens to seek shelter.
The Israeli military, which is known as the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), has also stated that the country is prepared to fight back tonight. The following is the translated statement: The Air Force’s competence has not been compromised, and it will continue its powerful attacks tonight in the Middle East.
The spokesperson for the IDF, Daniel Hagari, stated in a separate message that the attack “will have consequences.” He went on to say that the nation was still on high alert. This evening, the situation in Israel and the region is extremely volatile.
The Israeli Air Force “continues to operate at full capacity, and tonight will also continue to strike powerfully in the Middle East, as has been the case for the past year,” according to Rear Admiral Hagari.
Both the American and Israeli air defense systems functioned well. When discussing the Iranian attack on Israel with 180 missiles, he added, “There was close cooperation in detection and interception.”
“We don’t want to give the enemy all the information because we are still investigating [the attack’s outcome]. Tonight, Iran carried out a serious act that is escalating tensions in the Middle East. We will act in accordance with the direction of the political echelon at the location and time of our choosing. The occurrence of tonight will have effects.”
According to the Israeli military, Iran has launched missiles at Israel and is advising Israelis to flee. The warnings that Iran was preparing to launch an “imminently” ballistic missile attack on Israel came after the announcement on Tuesday.
The US official, who requested anonymity to discuss the intelligence, stated that the United States actively supports Israeli defensive preparations.
Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, had issued a warning to Iran on Monday regarding its support for Hezbollah and Hamas. He stated: Israel can get to any part of the Middle East.
