Iran sent a barrage of over 200 drones and missiles towards Israel, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing Middle East War. Saturday’s attack was timed after Israel announced it was withdrawing from the Gaza Strip.
Over 90% of the missiles and aerial projectiles were blocked by the Israeli air defense system.
Iran is claiming the attacks are retaliation for the April 1 bombing of Iran’s embassy in Syria. The attack killed seven of Iran’s military advisers, including three senior commanders.
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, minced no words in vowing punishment for Israel, accusing the U.S. of complicity in the embassy bombing. These accusations have sparked diplomatic tensions and raised the stakes in an already volatile situation.
International reaction to the latest attack on Israel came swiftly. Great Britain, Germany, Spain, and Colombia along with others have all condemned Iran.
