WAR: ISRAELI MINISTER SPEAKS ON ATTACK, BRANDS IRAN ‘A COUNTRY OF TERROR’
After last night’s attacks, Israeli Defence Minister, Yoav Gallant referred to Iran as a nation of terror.
The fact that Iran’s attack was successfully intercepted coincides with Israel’s ongoing battle with Hamas in Gaza.
Israel’s six-month-long assault on the Gaza Strip has put the country and Iran squarely on the defensive.
The Iran-led strikes, less than two weeks after an Israeli attack on Syria that killed two Iranian generals in an Iranian consular building marked the first time Iran has launched a direct military assault on Israel despite decades of enmity dating back to the country’s 1979 Islamic Revolution.
Reacting, Gallant said: “The Iranian attack was blocked in the most impressive way, together with our partners, the Americans and others.
”The entire world saw today who is Iran – a country of terror.”
