Israel is preparing to retaliate against Iran following a missile barrage from Iran in early October. According to reports, Israel's initial response will focus on targeting Iranian military installations and intelligence sites, rather than nuclear facilities. This decision is reportedly aimed at avoiding further escalation. The New York Times and other sources indicate that potential targets include missile command centers, launchpads, drone sites, and bases linked to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The CIA reports that Israel is carefully considering its approach to ensure a measured response.
