The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have confirmed that the Israeli Air Force will carry out additional strikes in the Middle East tonight, asserting that its operational capabilities remain intact despite Iran's recent missile strikes.
According to IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari, the Air Force is operating at full capacity and will continue to conduct powerful strikes in the region, a practice that has been ongoing over the past year.
The announcement follows the release of new video footage showing Iranian missiles hitting Nevatim air base in southern Israel, underscoring the escalating tensions in the region.
Hagari emphasized that Israel is committed to targeting Hezbollah commanders and individuals posing a threat to Israeli citizens, reaffirming the country's stance on national security.
Regarding Iran's actions, Hagari condemned the missile strikes as a provocative act that could potentially escalate the situation in the Middle East. He stated, 'Iran committed a serious act tonight, pushing the Middle East towards escalation. We will act at the time and place we decide.'
The IDF's response indicates Israel's readiness to defend its interests and respond decisively to any threats posed by its adversaries in the region. The ongoing tensions highlight the complex geopolitical dynamics at play in the Middle East, with both Israel and Iran asserting their respective positions through military actions.
