Khamenei: America and Israel will get a very good response for their actions against Iran
Iran TV reported today (Saturday) that the Leader of Iran Ali Khamenei said that America and Israel must know that they will get a very good response for their actions against Iran, according to what was published by the Organization Central News.
Israel had launched an air strike on Iranian military facilities and infrastructure in response to an earlier Iranian missile attack on Israel.
The two sides began exchanging strikes after Israeli planes launched an attack targeting the Iranian embassy headquarters in Syria, and after the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in the Iranian capital, Tehran.
Iran’s Mehr News Agency quoted Khamenei as saying: “We will do whatever is necessary to counter arrogance, whether from a military or military point of view or from a political point of view… a criminal apparatus ruling the order of the world.”
Earlier today, the Wall Street Journal reported that American and Israeli officials said that an Israeli air strike against Iran last month destroyed Tehran’s strategic air defenses and caused serious damage. on missile production facilities, and that the strike increased the risks Iran faced if it went ahead. his threats to bomb Israel again in the coming days.
On October 26, Israel launched an air strike on key solid-fuel missile production facilities at the Parchin military site near Tehran and at the Shahroud Ballistic Missile and Space Center operated by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard defense systems.
Western officials say Iran still has hundreds of missiles that could reach Israel and cause significant damage if they penetrate Israeli defenses. But damaging Iran’s air defenses would make it easier for Israel to engage more sensitive targets, including energy infrastructure and possibly nuclear sites.
