Israeli military spokesperson Daniel Hagari affirmed that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) are “fully prepared to defend and retaliate” in response to the recent missile attacks from Iran.
Stressing the need for a decisive response, Hagari declared that any retaliation would occur in a “timely manner” as the nation braces for further developments in the escalating conflict.
Injuries reported amid missile strikes
The Iranian missile barrage has already caused injuries, with Israeli newspaper Haaretz reporting that two individuals suffered minor wounds in Tel Aviv as a direct result of the missile attack. Additionally, others were injured while rushing to safety in response to the incoming threats.
The missile strikes from Iran mark a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict between the two nations, following weeks of heightened tensions and mutual provocations. As the situation unfolds, the Israeli military is on high alert, with defenses bolstered and preparations for potential countermeasures firmly in place.
Call for vigilance
The Israeli government has urged citizens to remain vigilant and follow safety protocols, as the threat of further missile strikes looms. Residents are advised to familiarize themselves with emergency procedures and seek shelter immediately when sirens sound.
