Israel plans retribution: rocket attacks from Iran force to reaction!
In a troubling incident that further heats up the tensions in the Middle East, Israel plans a retaliation after a massive rocket attack from Iran. According to reports, the Israeli security cabinet today wants to advise on possible military reactions. Defense Minister Joav Galant commented in a concise statement and announced that everyone who wanted to damage Israel will "pay a price". These words were published on the X platform, where Galant clarified: "Our attack in Iran will be fatal, precise and surprising".
The rocket attack from Iran, in which around 200 rockets were fired on Israel, took place last week. In addition, the Iran supports militant groups such as the Hisbollah in Lebanon and the Huthi militia in Yemen, which regularly carry out attacks on Israel. It is unclear which specific measures will take to reaction, but reports on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with military and secret service leaders about a combination of air raids on military goals in Iran and hidden operations on site.
international reactions and diplomatic tensions
While the military situation is coming, there were also diplomatic conversations between the USA and Israel. On Wednesday, Netanyahu was once again on the phone with US President Joe Biden after almost two months without contact. In the conversation, Biden confirmed his firm support for the security of Israel and sentenced the Iranian rocket attack sharply. He emphasized the right of Israel on self -defense, but at the same time warned of possible civil victims, especially in Beirut, where the population density is high. Media report growing frustration in Washington that Israel is often only informed about military operations afterwards. Against this background, Biden strictly rejected an Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear goals.
The USA also urge Israel to improve the protection of civilians in the Gaza Strip. Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the American UN ambassador, criticized the catastrophic humanitarian conditions and demanded urgent measures to improve the life situation in the Gaza Strip. She pointed out that a restriction of goods deliveries would only tighten the situation and demanded more relief goods for the affected civilian population.
losses in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon
The tense conditions led to tragic losses on both sides. According to reports, dozens of Palestinians died in Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip - at least 47 people, including a journalist. The attack was supposedly aimed at Hamas' command and control center, but also met tents of displaced people, which continues to escalate the situation.
In a further worrying development, five civil protection employees were killed in an Israeli attack in the South Libanon. The Lebanese Ministry of Health condemned the attack and pointed out that international humanitarian laws were violated. These renewed attacks and the associated civilian victims not only lead to a further escalation of violence, but also raise questions about compliance with international norms in conflict.
The situation remains tense and confusing, while the international actors react observingly. For detailed information, comprehensive analyzes on developments in the Middle East can be found on www.lippewelle.de .
