Intense clashes between Iran and Israel started again after April 8. After midnight on Sunday, Iran launched counter-attacks in retaliation for Israel’s attack on Lebanon. IDF sources claimed that about 10 missiles were fired towards northern Israel. On the other hand, Iran announced that it had attacked some places in Iraq.
No counter attack: Trump
On the other hand, it seems that US President Donald Trump called Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu not to respond to Iran’s attacks. Trump reminded that they are very close to a peace agreement. “You have already launched missiles. He suggested to Iran, come to the talks. On the other hand, referring to Netanyahu, Trump said, “No one was harmed by their attack. I hope that Israel will not counter-attack… If Bibi (Prime Minister Netanyahu) counter-attacks, what has been going on for the past 47 years will continue.
On the other hand, no matter how much Trump said, Israel did not count his words. On Monday morning, IDF forces launched an attack against Iran. Israel Air Force carried out massive attacks targeting military bases in western and central Iran. Huge explosions occurred in many places in Tehran. Apart from this, Tabriz, Isfahan and other cities also shook with explosions.
Iran closes its airspace after Israel launches airstrikes. On the other hand, Qatar and Syria have already closed their airspace due to Iranian attacks. Iran has accused Israel of using air-launched ballistic missiles.
