“In response to months of continuous attacks from the regime in Iran against the State of Israel – right now the Israel Defense Forces is conducting precise strikes on military targets in Iran,” the Israeli Defense Forces stated in a press release.
A few hours later, the Israeli military issued a warning to Iran that it would be held accountable for any further escalation of the conflict.

Iran claimed that its air security system successfully thwarted Israel’s attacks on military facilities in Tehran, Khuzestan, and Ilam provinces, resulting in only “limited damage” within particular areas.
Since October 1, when Iran launched almost 200 missiles toward Israel and killed one person in the West Bank, the area has been on high alert for a potential Israeli retaliation to Iran’s missile offensive.
