Israel had already told Iran that it would attack and also warned that Iran should not make the mistake of responding to this attack. After this, the United States also warned Iran not to respond to the attack, otherwise the United States would come to Israel's defense. Iran is being threatened by both sides but Iran has also shown its attitude.
The Iranian vice president has boasted of Iranian power and has shown intentions to weaken the enemy. This time Iran also received support from Saudi Arabia, which called the attack on Iran a violation of the law. In fact, Israel launched an airstrike against Iran on the night of October 25. 100 Israeli fighter jets entered the sky over Iran and then carried out rapid bombing raids. Many people were killed and many were injured in this attack.
Now the question is: why did Israel and the United States threaten Iran together? Why they both fear an attack from Iran. Within a few hours this fear was proven to be true. Iran expressed its intention to respond.
Iranian parliamentarian and member of the National Security Commission, Ahmed Azzam, commented on the Israeli attacks saying: “We have the right to defend ourselves and we will respond at the right time.” However, we will follow one key principle. We will not act hesitantly or hastily.
Attacks on military bases and power plants in Iran
Israel did not forgive anyone. What Israel has told the United States in a ferocious attack on Iran's power. According to Israel, it attacked Iran's military bases, attacked a power plant and also claimed an oil refinery. Overall, Israel did not make any concessions to weaken Iran. And he stated that after carrying out all the attacks, all his planes returned safely. But now it may be Iran's turn. Iran's supreme leader, Khamenei, is furious. Khamenei had already warned that Israel should not make the mistake of responding to missile attacks, but Israel attacked and there is now a strong possibility that Iran will retaliate.
Iran showed signs of revenge
Iran has also indicated this. Iran's Vice President Mohammad Reza Arif tweeted that Iran's strength will humiliate and weaken our enemy. Now Iran has no choice. Iran's war with Israel is now in a new turn because all its pieces are being defeated one by one. The Iranian vanguard, Hamas, has been defeated and weakened. Iran's second wing, Hezbollah, has been completely destroyed. Even their leader has been killed. Iran doesn't seem to be getting much help from Syria. In such a situation, Iran now has no choice but to directly enter the war.
The October 2 attack was also a last resort for Iran because it had to confront Israel directly. It is also certain that this fight will intensify further because the United States has warned Iran not to make the mistake of retaliating because in such a situation, the United States will support Israel. Israeli state television Kan News has claimed that Iran has sent a message through a foreign intermediary that it will not attack.
Iran may retaliate: expert
Iran says it will continue to defend itself against Israeli attacks on Gaza, Lebanon and Iranian officials. This is the first time that Israel has openly claimed an attack on Iran. According to the Al Jazeera report, analysts say that after Saturday's attack, Iran may now retaliate. Military and political analyst Elijah Magnier says the killing of Iranian officials in Israeli strikes will force Iran to retaliate.
“Iran is obliged to defend itself”
Iran's Foreign Ministry said it considered the attacks “a clear violation” of international law and the UN Charter. Iran has the right and obligation to defend itself against external aggressive acts. Iran insists on using all the capabilities of the Iranian people to safeguard its security and vital interests. It further reaffirms its responsibilities towards regional peace and security, while reminding all countries in the region of their individual and collective duties to safeguard regional peace and stability.
