Israel launched targeted strikes on Iranian military sites Saturday, October 26, responding to a series of missile attacks attributed to Tehran. As explosions were heard across Tehran, Israel confirmed that its military initiated "precise strikes on military targets in Iran" following months of sustained threats from Iran.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) released a statement explaining the operation as a response to an October 1 missile attack by Iran, which Israel has called a clear act of aggression. The Israeli Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant, previously warned of a “deadly, precise and surprising” response to any aggression against Israel.
