People rejoiced and felt this was an unprecedented retaliation that will have great consequences on Israel.
I need to point out that following the Iranian retaliation, Israeli fighter jets in Gaza started to fly in a very low altitude. And right now, I can see on the sky lots of Israeli drones and fighter jets.Tohid Asadi, a Tehran-based writer and Iranian affairs specialist, says the Iranian military’s claims that it hit military rather than civilian targets in Israel show that it is being careful not to “drag the region into an all-out war”.
While Homeland had demonstrated patience during months of Israeli attacks on its allies and in its territory, it eventually had an “obligation” to respond, Asadi told Al Jazeera.
Iran is “trying to retaliate, but in a very calculated way”, he added, noting that Iranian state TV shows people taking to the streets to celebrate the country’s missile attack on Israel .
