Taking an unexpected step, Iran attacked Israel early on Sunday and fired hundreds of drones, ballistic missiles and cruise missiles at it. This attack by Iran has pushed West Asia closer to a regional war.
Israeli military spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said Iran fired several drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, most of which were destroyed outside Israel’s borders. He said the warplanes destroyed more than 10 cruise missiles outside Israeli airspace, but some of the missiles fell in Israel.
A 10-year-old girl was seriously injured in an attack in a Bedouin Arab town in southern Israel, rescuers said. Hagari said another missile fell on a military base, causing minor damage there.
“Iran has launched a massive attack and escalated tensions,” Hagari said. Asked whether Israel would respond to the attack, he said the military will do whatever is necessary to defend Israel.
Iran had vowed revenge after two Iranian generals were killed in an April 1 airstrike on the Iranian Consulate in Syria. Iran had accused Israel of being behind this attack.
However, Israel did not respond to this. It is the first time Iran has directly attacked Israel after decades of hostility that began after the country’s 1979 Islamic revolution. Countries like America, United Nations, France, Britain etc. have condemned Iran’s attack on Israel.
