Iran still took matters into its own hands. Before the move, Israel was informed in advance that Israel had won this wave.
April 13, local time, was the most comfortable night for the Palestinian people. They were not bombed by Israel that night, and the air raid sirens over Israel, which often bombed them, sounded in the sky. At this time, Israel's night sky has been stirred up by missiles and drones launched by Iran.
The conflict between the two countries began earlier this month when Israel bombed the Iranian embassy in Damascus, the Syrian capital, with F35 warplanes, causing many casualties. Later, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Ali Khamenei said that he was about to launch retaliatory actions against Israel, and tens of thousands of troops have been assembled, and missiles have been prepared.
Iran then retaliated against Israel under domestic pressure.
According to reports, Iran launched about 200 missiles and more than 300 drones into Israeli territory this time, and the main target of the attack was the airport where the Israeli F35 bombed the Iranian embassy last time. At the same time, Houthis in Israel also launched attacks, but most of their missiles and drones were intercepted. It is understood that this is the first time in recent decades that Iran has taken military action against Israel from its own territory.
And after launching missiles and drones, the Iranian side said that the military operation was over, and warned Israel that if it dared to return fire, the Iranian side would return it twice, and also warned the United States not to participate.
Will Israel go down the steps given by Iran?
But Iran was very restrained in this operation, and even informed the Israeli side in advance that it would attack you in about five hours, which means that you can make some preparations. Reminiscent of the assassination of Soleimani back then, Iran's performance was the same, Iran retaliated against the United States with great fanfare, but the United States suffered very little. Through these two incidents, it can be seen that Iran still maintains a very restrained attitude towards similar retaliatory actions, and does not want to expand the scale of the conflict.
Israel is obviously not going to take the step from Iran, because Netanyahu is just waiting for Iran to come and fight him, so he has a reason to take military action against Iran again.
First, Netanyahu is trying to pull the United States down. This is Israel's most fundamental purpose. You must know that Iran is not at the level of Afghanistan and Syria, and its military strength is so strong that even the United States feels very jealous. If it really provokes Iran, it will be powerless for Israel, which is already mired in a quagmire and embattled. Therefore, when the time comes, the United States, for the sake of its own interests in the Middle East, will personally end up protecting Israel.
Second, Netanyahu has diverted domestic contradictions from international attention. Because Israel has been attacking Palestinian areas for several months, causing heavy casualties on the ground, it has been condemned by most countries in the world, and even the United States can no longer stand it. At the same time, armed forces in the Middle East have banded together to retaliate against Israel's actions, which have caused Israeli human and economic losses. This has led to sharp social contradictions in Israel, with one voice calling for the war to the end and the other calling for an immediate cessation of the offensive against Palestine.
Third, Netanyahu has raised his position again through Iran's military attacks on Israel. Shortly after Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said he would retaliate against Israel, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a speech warning Iran not to retaliate or face a catastrophic blow. Netanyahu's logic? I am only allowed to hit you, but you are not allowed to hit me. This seems to outsiders to be clearly arching fire, which means that you should come and hit me. When Iranian missiles and drones arrived, Israel's security cabinet had authorized the wartime cabinet to make decisions on how to respond to Iranian attacks inside Israel. And Netanyahu naturally became the head of this wartime cabinet.
Judging from the above three points, Iran's retaliatory actions against Israel can be said to play into the hands of Israel and Netanyahu. It is foreseeable that Israel, led by Netanyahu, will surely launch a larger military attack on Iran next.
