Israel to Launch 'Serious and Significant' Response to Iran's 200-Missile Attack Within Days

Oct 5, 2024, 10:22 AM

Israeli military officials have announced plans for a significant response to Iran within days, following a ballistic missile attack earlier this week that involved approximately 200 missiles targeting Israel. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have raised the alert level across all fronts and are preparing for a 'serious and significant' operation against Iran, with sources indicating that an attack is imminent. The response is expected to be coordinated with the United States, although American aircraft will not participate directly. There is an ongoing debate within Israel over whether to target Iranian military sites, oil facilities, or nuclear installations. The Iranian missile attack, which was the second such assault this year, reportedly came in retaliation for the assassination of Iranian, Hezbollah, and Hamas officials. Israeli military leaders have been briefing journalists to prepare the public for the imminent action and have been holding meetings with officials from allied countries to coordinate the upcoming operation. The IDF expects significant cooperation from regional partners and warns that the attack on Iran will have consequences for Tehran.
