TEL AVIV – It is another day of morning for Israel, as dozens of Iranian ballistic missiles touched down on Tel Aviv, killing at least 5 people and injuring many others.
The Iranian strikes, in revenge for assassination of Hamas Political Chief, Ismail Haniyeh and his bodyguards in Tehran and recent assassination of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of the Islamic Resistant Movement, Hezbollah and members of Iran Revolutionary Guard Corps, IRGC in Beirut, Lebanon, coincided with sporadic shooting by resistant fighters at a train station in Tel Aviv resulting in deaths of over 14 Israelis.
The Iranian strikes which came down like hailstorm mostly undetected in Tel Aviv killed no less than five people according to local sources, while the sporadic shooting killed at least nine in Israelis. Dozens of others were injured.
Videos that emanated from the scene of the shooting in Tel Aviv showed several people lying motionless on the floor.
It is not clear who carried out the attacks. While some sources say the shooters are resistant fighters from Palestine, others are saying they may be from Lebanon.
Meanwhile, there is wild celebration from the streets in Palestine, Tehran and Beirut, as the missiles launched from Silos in Kermansha make impacts in the capital city of Israel.
In a statement, the IRGC said the attacks are Iran’s response to assassination of their allies and Iranian nationals.
“In the name of God almighty; as a response to the killing of Ismael Haniyeh, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and Abbas Nilforoushan, we targeted the heart of the Zionist occupying entity…”
The statement added that how Israel reacts will determine what will follow.
“if Israel responds, we will hit them a thousand times harder”
In another statement, the IRGC said tonight’s attack was successful as was April’s.
“Tonight, deterrence is in the making and Iran’s security and future is being protected.
“However and whenever Israel attacks back, what Iran does will secure this deterrence”, it stated.
It added that the attacks delayed preparations by the Israeli Defence Forces, IDF to launch a ground incursion into Lebanon.
