Israeli military chief threatens further attacks on Iran

Israel’s army chief, Herzey Halevi, has threatened more strikes if Iran retaliates to Israel’s shelling last weekend. If there are any more Iranian missile attacks, “we will again know how to reach Iran (…) and hit very, very hard,” Halevi warned in a speech to Israeli soldiers involved in strikes on targets in Iran last Saturday night. was

The lieutenant general noted that some of these strikes had missed targets – which he reasoned could lead to more attacks on Iran in the future. “We may need to do this again,” he explained.

Response to Iranian attacks

The Israeli military said it carried out shelling of military targets in Iran, particularly missile factories and air defense facilities. This was the response of the Israeli Armed Forces to the Iranian missile attack on Israel on 1 October.

Four Iranian soldiers were killed in the Israeli strikes, Iranian sources said. Iranian media also reported that civilians were killed near the capital Tehran.

However, the Iranian military described the material damage of the strikes as “limited”. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Sunday that Israel’s attacks “should not be exaggerated or trivialized.”
