Israel issues the all-clear, settlers can leave their shelters.

—❗️🇮🇱/🇮🇷 BREAKING: New launches from Iran towards Israel

@Middle_East_Spectator

Targeting Jerusalem & occupied West Bank.

Intercepted by Tomato King (Jordan).

— I don’t like that the launches are sporadic and not simultaneous, obviously it will be much less effective.

It’s probably for defensive reasons. Quickly leaving the tunnels, launching, and retreating—which makes sense to preserve assets, but still.

Decentralized command structure has its advantages (continuous fire & low asset losses) but certainly also its disadvantages (less concentrated firepower), so I guess it’s a tradeoff.

I think the Iranian doctrine is ‘we’ll keep firing, and at some point they’ll run out and we will get through’, which is true, but then you do need to keep firing (i.e. continuing the war for real).

— 🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: In the past 5 hours, Iran launched three more waves of missiles towards Israel, and the IDF also carried out another wave of strikes in Iran

In addition to these exchanges, enemy drones were shot down by Iranian air defenses, according to Mehr News.

The situation has now calmed down, and Khatam Al-Anbiyaa Central Command has announced that operations have ended unless Israel commits further aggression.

‘For now, our strikes have concluded.

From now on, if the Zionist regime continues its aggression against us — or against southern Lebanon or elsewhere in Lebanon — we will strike and punish them severely.’

@Middle_East_Spectator

The only option is a full return to war.

Israel will very likely bomb Beirut again.

They’ve openly said that’s the response to any fire into Israeli territory.

— 🇮🇷 NEW: Iran reopens its airspace and civilian air traffic will resume

@Middle_East_Spectator

Retaliating for Beirut is understandable.

But if you say southern Lebanon is included in this equation, then it must be treated the same as Beirut.

Statements can’t just be statements anymore. We’re past that stage.

Of course, this is only a mild criticism—considering that Iran is the ONLY country in the entire region that dares to confront the U.S. and the Zionists.
