Israel military conducts “precise strikes” on Iran

The Israeli military on Saturday said that they conducted “precise strikes” on Iran to in response to what it said were months of attacks by “Iran and its proxies” in the region.

In a statement Israel Defense Forces stated, “In response to months of continuous attacks from the regime in Iran against the State of Israel – right now the Israel Defense Forces is conducting precise strikes on military targets in Iran.”

The development was also confirmed by Iran’s military saying that the country targeted military bases in Ilam, Khuzestan and Tehran provinces, causing “limited damage.”

The statement from Iran’s armed forces was read aloud on state television, which showed no images from the sites of the attacks.

Iran’s military claimed its air defences limited the damage inflicted by Israel’s strikes.

Following three waves of strikes, the Israeli military later in the day confirmed that its airstrikes against Iran were over.

IDF Spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said, “I can now confirm that we have concluded the Israeli response to Iran’s attacks against Israel.

He said the Israel Defense Forces had fulfilled its mission.

Moreover, he warned more strikes in case of retaliation.

“If the regime in Iran were to make the mistake of beginning a new round of escalation, we will be obligated to respond.”

“Our message is clear: All those who threaten the State of Israel and seek to drag the region into a wider escalation — will pay a heavy price,” he added.
