WAR: FRANCE HELPED ISRAEL AGAINST IRAN ATTACK, SAYS ISRAELI ARMY SPOKESPERSON
Daniel Hagari, the chief military spokesperson of Israel, has revealed that France was among nations involved in defending Israel against Iran’s overnight attack.
Hagari, however, said he could not give details on whether French fighter jets shot down the missiles launched by Iran.
“France has very good technology, jets, radar – and I know they were contributing in patrolling airspace,” Hagari said.
The Middle East has been enmeshed in crisis after Iran launched dozens of missiles and drones at Israel.
Meanwhile, the Israeli’s military said most of the missiles were intercepted outside Israel’s territory by aerial defence systems.
