War in the Middle East: “They won’t know what hit them” – Israeli Defense Minister announces Tel Aviv’s response to Iran

"Our attack will be deadly, precise, and astonishing," said Yoav Gallant, shortly after Benjamin Netanyahu's briefing

Israel appears to be in the “final stretch” for an attack on Tehran, and all the pieces seem to be falling into place.

Tel Aviv seems to have finalized the plan for the attack, one that must, on the one hand, be “compatible” with Washington’s limits, and on the other, have the range and intensity to punish Iran for the 200 ballistic missiles it sent to the country last Tuesday.

Speaking to an Israeli media outlet, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant outlined the framework for the upcoming Israeli strike. In an interview with Channel 12, Gallant said: “The Iranian attack was deadly but lacked precision; our attack will be deadly, precise, and astonishing. They won’t understand what happened or how.”

This statement from the Defense Minister comes just hours after a fifty-minute conversation between Benjamin Netanyahu and Joe Biden, which was reportedly dominated by Israel’s planned response to Iran.

In the last three days, Israeli fighter jets have been striking targets in Syria, both in central and eastern regions of the country, hitting Iranian bases in an effort to weaken Tehran’s overall presence in the wider area.
