According to details, the attacks were directed against missile manufacturing facilities “used by Iran in its attacks against the State of Israel in the last year”, and, simultaneously, against surface-to-air missiles and other elements that “were intended to be used to restrict the freedom of Israel’s air operations in Iran.”
“Iran has attacked Israel twiceincluding in areas that endangered civilian lives, and has paid the price for it. We are focused on our objectives in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon. “It is Iran that continues to provoke further regional escalation,” the IDF spokesperson added.
