Iran’s response plan for Israeli aggression ‘fully ready’: Report
The Islamic Republic’s plan for a response to the Israeli regime’s potential strikes on the country is “fully ready,” and will be “decisively” implemented in case of aggression, according to an informed source in Iran’s Armed Forces.
The unnamed source was quoted by Tasnim news agency as saying on Sunday that Iran maintains a “bank of various targets” in the Israeli-occupied territories and Iran’s scope of retaliation depends on the nature of the regime’s action.
“The plan for the necessary response to the possible measure of the Zionists is completely ready, and if Israel takes action, there will be no doubt in the implementation of Iran’s counter-strike,” the source said.
“In Iran’s plan, there are several types of reciprocal and specific strikes, and depending on the type of action the Zionists may take, an immediate decision will be made regarding the implementation of one or more of them.”
The informed source added, “Operation True Promise 2 showed that we can raze to the ground any place we intend to.”
On Tuesday, the Islamic Republic launched 200 missiles toward Israeli military and intelligence bases all over the occupied territories as part of Operation True Promise II in response to the regime’s deadly aggression against the country and other regional nations.
The aggression that prompted the retaliation had, among other things, led to the martyrdom of Hamas’s political leader Ismail Haniyeh, Hezbollah’s leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and Abbas Nilforoushan, a senior commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC).
In April, Iran fired more than 300 missiles and drones against the Israeli-occupied territories in an operation code-named True Promise in reprisal for deadly aggression by the regime against Iranian diplomatic facilities in the Syrian capital of Damascus.
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has earlier claimed that Tel Aviv “has the duty and the right to defend itself and respond to these attacks — and we will do so.”
Tehran has vowed to respond with multiple magnitudes to any potential repetition of aggression by the regime, targeting all its infrastructure.
