Diplomatic efforts are in full swing in the Middle East. This is why, according to a report, the suspected Israeli attack against Iran was smaller than planned.
Israel first planned a comprehensive offensive against Iran. This was reported by the New York Times citing three high-ranking Israeli government officials.
Accordingly, several military targets in Iran are to be bombed near the capital, Tehran. After appeals by the United States, Germany and Great Britain, Israel eventually decided on a limited strike.
assumption Retaliate
According to standard media reports, Israel launched an attack against Iran last Friday. According to the New York Times, an air base in Isfahan province, far from Iran's nuclear facilities, was hit by a missile.
According to the statement, the military strike was carried out to demonstrate that Israel is capable of striking Iran without invading its airspace. Isfahan province was also purposefully selected. Important facilities for Iran's defense industry include the Natanz nuclear facility, where Iran enriches uranium to 60 percent.
Earlier, Iran attacked Israel
Israel's military strike followed Iran's attack on Israel on April 13 with more than 300 drones and missiles. This followed the killing of two Iranian generals in an attack on the embassy building in the Syrian capital, Damascus. Israel is responsible for this attack.
Iran does not want to continue the offensive
Israel has not officially commented on the alleged counterattack – Iran has rejected it and has now announced it will not pursue it. “This incident was a diversionary tactic and not worth mentioning,” Foreign Office spokesman Nasser Khanani said. The spokesman said the move was so trivial that the Israelis themselves did not want to take responsibility for it, IRNA news agency reported.
Khanani emphasized that Iran does not want to escalate tensions in the region. At the same time, the country will once again continue to respond to any aggression by Israel.
