Jerusalem: The spokesman of the Israeli army announced a full response to the Iranian attack.

According to media reports, Israel's military chief of staff, Herzi Halvi, confirmed that Israel would give a strong response to the Iranian attack, but he did not provide any details.

Chief of the Israeli army Herzi Halvi also encouraged the soldiers at New Atim Air Base.

According to the news agency, the Israeli army could not make any decision regarding the nature and timing of the response to the Iranian attacks, while what will be the reaction of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the first direct attack by Iran, a final decision has not yet been made regarding this.

On the other hand, the international community is advising Iran and Israel to show restraint amid fears of increasing conflicts in the Middle East after the Iranian attacks.

In addition, the current situation in Israel is on high alert, but authorities have eased emergency measures, lifting restrictions on school activities and easing restrictions on large gatherings.

While, according to the report of the Qatari Broadcasting Agency, Iran's military spokesman says that if anyone attacks Iran, his hands will be cut off.

“We do not want to spread the war in the region, but we will cut off the hands of those who attack Iran,” wrote the spokesperson of the Iranian army on the social media platform X.

It is pertinent to note that on the night of April 13, Iran fired about 300 drones and cruise missiles at Israel, which was named Operation True Promise, and Israeli defense installations and military bases were targeted in the attack.

According to Iranian media, this attack is in response to the Israeli attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus on April 1, in which 12 people, including the leader of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, were martyred.

Notably, after 1973, Israel has been targeted by a country for the first time.
