Islamic Emirate supports Iran's attack on Israel as 'legitimate defense’

This statement comes as israel's military spokesperson, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, reports that Iran fired over 300 missiles and drones at Israeli cities.

In a statement, the Islamic Emirate called on influential countries in the region and the world to prevent further escalation of the crisis and halt conflicts in the Gaza Strip.

Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari claimed that 99% of the Iranian missiles and drones were intercepted and destroyed, resulting in 31 Israeli citizens being injured and hospitalized in the attacks.

The Iranian attack on Israel follows airstrikes on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, Syria, which resulted in the deaths of seven military personnel, including two senior commanders of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Mohammad Bagheri, warned that if Israel takes further action, Iran's response will be more decisive. Bagheri stated, “From our perspective, this operation is over, and we have no intention to continue. However, if the Zionist regime acts against the Islamic Republic either on our soil or at our locations in Syria or elsewhere, our next operations will be much more extensive.” (ILKHA)
