Israel’s military says that, “like every other sovereign country in the world, the State of Israel has the right and the duty to respond”, due to “the regime in Iran and its proxies in the region… relentlessly attacking Israel” since 7 October 2023.
“Our defensive and offensive capabilities are fully mobilized,” the military says.
“We will do whatever necessary to defend the State of Israel and the people of Israel,” it adds.
