Iran will retaliate against Israel

Occupying Israel attacked Iran, one of the most powerful countries in the Middle East, early Saturday morning. In response to this attack, Tehran said that it will attack Israel. A government source told the country's semi-official news agency Tasnim News. Iran is ready to retaliate, he said.

"There is no doubt that Israel will respond to any aggression against Iran," the source said.

Residents heard multiple explosions in the capital Tehran before sunrise on Saturday. Explosions were heard especially in the western part of the capital.

According to Tasnim News, these are the sounds of Iran's air defense system being used to prevent Israeli air force attacks.

On October 1, Iran launched 181 ballistic missiles at Israel. Tehran launched these missiles in response to the killing of former Hamas chief Ismail Haniya, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrullah and the commander of the Revolutionary Guards, Abbas Nilforosan. It targeted the occupying Israeli air base. Not recognizing Israel as a country, Iran calls the territory part of occupied Palestine.

At that time, Tehran said that if Israel attacks Iran, it will be given a suitable response.

The world is watching to see what Iran will do now that Israel has attacked. Western countries, including the United States and the United Kingdom, have called on Iran to end the cycle of attacks and counter-attacks now.
