In total, Tehran launched more than 300 missiles and drones that tried to attack various Israeli cities. According to the pressecretic Vahal Daniel Hagari, as a result, 99% of enemy air objects were able to intercept. 30 winged rockets have never entered the air space of Israel, but the ballistic weapons still caused minor damage to the country. For example, after blows on the airway, its capacity was not weakened. During the shelling of the US, Britain and France, Jerusalem could help.
The representative of the Israeli Defense Army stated that they would cooperate closely with NATO countries, but last night this relationship manifested themselves in a rather unusual way. Jordan also made its contribution, which intercepted explosive objects in its airspace. This was necessary to protect civilians and areas in which they live. "Although some fragments have fallen in different places, there was no significant damage or injury," the statement said.
US President Joe Biden also shared that the US military helped to intercept almost all drones and missiles. Accordingly, Washington will continue to support Jerusalem. The same opinion was voiced by the head of the Pentagon Lloyd Austin. He assured that the US forces are ready to protect partners in the region and provide further support for defense. All this should lead to strengthening regional stability. In Washington, Iran was further urged to stop the attacks immediately.
"We do not strive for conflict with Iran, but we will without hesitation to protect our forces and support the defense of Israel . . . I will continue to closely monitor the situation and consult with our allies and partners," said Lloyd Austin. But former US President Donald Trump, in addition to supporting the people of Israel, said the attack could be prevented. It would not have happened if there was not Joe Biden in power, but he.
Ukraine did not stay away and condemned the massive attack of Iran on Israel, which is stated in the statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The diplomatic agency is convinced that Tehran's actions carry the risk of escalation in the Middle East, which can result in more global conflict. "Such actions are absolutely unacceptable, irresponsible and carry the risk of unprecedented further escalation of the situation in the Middle East.
This attack once again demonstrates the importance of mobilizing all the forces of the free world to protect the global borders of democracy," the statement said. A few hours after the Iranian attack, it was decided to open the airspace over Israel again. At the same time, passengers should now carefully check the departure time, as a number of airlines have temporarily canceled all flights. The same decision was made by Iraq and Jordan, but in the morning the restriction was lifted.
US President Joe Biden, despite his assistance and support for Israel, said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyag that Washington would not participate in offensive operations against Iran. Anonymous official in communication with CNN journalists told about it. The comments were transmitted during a telephone conversation that the leaders of the two countries spent after Iran's strikes in response to Israel.
The Defense Minister of Israel, meanwhile, stated that the confrontation with Iran has not been over. " Joava Gallant urged citizens to be "vigilant and attentive" to those instructions published by the representatives of the Tahal. Jerusalem should be prepared for any scenarios and provocations. "Together with the United States and additional partners, we managed to protect the territory of Israel.
The leader of the Corps of the Warts of the Islamic Revolution (Quir) Hossein Salami said during an appeal to the nation on television, writes CNN that Tehran now intends to respond directly if Jerusalem is attacked by his assets, people or interests. "We have decided to create a new equation that is that if the Zionist regime is now attacking our interests, assets, personalities and citizens anywhere and at any time, we will reveal them.
Operation" Honest Promise "(name Attacks on Israel on April 14, ed. ) Is a striking and very clear example of this new equation, " - the message reads. Despite this, The New York Times writes that the Israeli military office plans to gather to discuss the possible "answer" of Tehran to the attack.
Two Israeli anonymous officials stated that after the conversation of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyaga with US President Joe Biden, the option was allegedly canceled, as it would have caused global consequences. We will remind, on April 14 it was reported that the House of Representatives will urgently consider the assistance of Israel after the attack of Iran.
