Iran’s direct attack on Israel, breaking from traditional reliance on proxies, signifies a change in approach from Tehran. The attack was a response to an airstrike, attributed to Israel, which destroyed what Iran claims were consular offices in Syria and killed two of its military generals. Israel reported that most of the 300 drones and missiles launched by Iran were intercepted by its defense system, supported by the US and Britain, resulting in minimal injury and damage. Iran’s Revolutionary Guard deemed the operation successful, with analysts suggesting it showed Iran’s potential escalation in its conflict with Israel. While some Israeli hard-liners called for retaliation, others expressed the need for restraint to foster ties with Arab partners. International powers like the US seek diplomatic measures to reduce tension, with urgent meetings of the G7 and U.N. Security Council held. The G7 unanimously condemned Iran’s action, threatening to impose further measures if Iran continues destabilizing initiatives.Original text for Kareem Chehayeb publish in-> abcnews
