    Chief of Staff, Maj. General Bagheri:

    We sent a message to the US through the Swiss embassy that if it cooperates with Israel in their possible next actions, their bases will not have any security and we will deal with them as well.

    He also said that Iran dismantled 2 important military sites in the operation against Israel.

    🇮🇷 IRGC Commander-in-Chief, General Hossein Salami:

    We have decided to create a new equation. If the Zionist regime attacks our interests, assets, people, and citizens, we will counterstrike from the Iranian soil. Operation ‘Fullfilled Promise’ was a fine example of that.

    Overcoming the zionist & American defense systems in the region and hitting the specified targets was not easy, however out plans were innovative & we managed to penetrate the layers of their defense systems and those of their allies.

    Our operations were limited and was solely a response to the attack on our consulate in Damascus.

    The operation was very successful and exceeded our expectations.

    Cool

    🇮🇷 Iran’s Chief of Staff:

    The operation included targeting the israeli intelligence HQ on Mount Hermon, this base was involved in the attack on our consulate in Damascus.

    The operation also targeted the "Nevatim" airbase from which IOF warplanes launched attacks on our consulate in Damascus.

    We have pounded both headquarters.

    ✴ Very impressive video of the performance of Iranian missiles against the Israeli air defense systems.

    Iranian ballistic missiles equipped with cluster warheads saturate Israel's defense systems and several warheads pass through the air defense missiles and hit the targets and the air defense system itself.

    With this smart method, none of Israel's air defense systems can deal with Iranian projectiles 100% and the hit is certain!

    Well ... mine is that Russkie are carrying a long term maneuver, not a war.  

    It's difficult to disagree here regarding the Russians. They are engaging in a war of attrition with NATO. The [b]big hammer[/b] major military forces are being held in reserve in case NATO decides to join the conflict through direct intervention.

    BTW The Iranian industry is nowhere near the capabilities of Russia. However, the Iranians have been accumulating thousands of missiles stored in mountain tunnels and only like 150 was launched yesterday. The big hammer is still there.

    It is interesting to consider the fact that no human casualties have been reported on the Zionist side and that even the Pro-Zionist media cannot build upon that. I think Iran is still trying to keep the escalation limited by targeting only buildings that are most likely to be evacuated in case of a strike attack.
    If Iran reacted really in a reciprocal way, it would have killed a few Israeli generals with weapons that allow less time for evacuations. So in that regard this was probably more like a warning shot.

    According to Iranian images and statements, no hypersonic missiles have been used. Only ballistic missiles of not much power.
    Same with drones and cruise missiles.
    Iran, for the moment, avoided using its most modern weapons.

    🇮🇱🇮🇷🇷🇺 Statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry regarding the attack on Israel:

    " On the night of April 14, a large number of missiles and drones were launched into Israel. According to the Iranian Foreign Ministry, this attack was carried out within the framework of the right of self-defense in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter in response to attacks on Iranian targets in the region, including a strike on the building of the consular department of the Iranian Embassy in Damascus on April 1, which our country strongly condemned, due to the position of Western members, the UN Security Council was unable to adequately respond to the attack on the Iranian consular mission. "

    🇮🇷🇮🇱 Pro-Iranian channels claim that they scored 15 hits on the Nevatim airbase in southern Israel. Israel and the US say overall damage was minor.

    Both sides are acting as expected - the United States and Israel are downplaying the consequences of the strikes, and Iran, in turn, is exaggerating the topic of arrivals. At the same time, there is practically no objective information to assess the real damage from the arrivals. And it’s not a fact that it will happen. Everyone will promote their own version of the results of the strike.

    https://t.me/intelslava/57585

    Many of the pro-Russian military channels have certain prejudices against Iran (and small countries) and fall into the prejudices of underestimating its power and military capacity.
    It reminds me of the Cuban testimonies of the Angolan War against South Africa in the 80s.
    It was said that the Soviets had a more conservative stance and were more reluctant to confront the South Africans, unlike the Cubans.
    It seemed that the former overestimated South African military capabilities.
    And they underestimated Cuban capabilities.

    That depends if we trust Israeli-provided data.
    350 missiles is hardly a "warning shot" - it is a major assault.
    When Iranians acted in a face saving operation after the assassination of gen. Suleymani, they have used ... a dozen or so missiles.
    And informed the Muricans early enough to let them hide in shelters ...

    I can tell you that the SADF never underestimated Cuban soldiers in the field - they were of much better caliber than the insurgents. Having said that the South African troops - especially the "special forces" units like 32 Battalion were extremely dangerous opponents being able to operate very effectively far beyond enemy lines in large numbers. In the end when peace talks started - you could see mutual respect from both sides of the conflict.

    An assault without any dead people can be barely called a major assault. You could call it a major warning shot. I am sure that, if there were casualties, the Western media would have cried about that right away.
    It was not necessary to warn the Israeli either. The Iranian drones have been detected a long time before the first warheads reached their targets. The Iranians certainly made this decision deliberately to avoid killing anyone.

    Intercepting 150+ geran 2 with amraam and patriots...

    My 2 cents : they plan a continuous exchange of missiles attacks with Israel after this and this big attack was aimed at destroying the stocks of missiles. They already have hundreds of drones to oblige them to use even more expensive missiles while BM hit their air force bases.

    Add to this that Russia will be happy to give away some 300 geran 2 per months out of the 1000 they produce to let US deplete their stocks of aim120 trying to protect Israel.

    An air defence attrition war is starting and israel is very likely going to loose it.

    🔰💥Which of the Israeli bases were targeted in Iran's retaliatory attack?



    2024 Iran–Israel conflict - Page 11 GLILOSGWMAAxfQw?format=jpg&name=large


    According to the 'Islamic World News' assessments and based on the latest information obtained from the missile and drone operations of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps against the Zionist regime, the following targets have been definitely targeted:

    ➖Nevatim Airbase in the south of occupied Palestine
    ➖Ramon Airbase in the south of occupied Palestine
    ➖The Israeli top-secret intelligence-spy base in Jabal al-Sheikh (Mount Hermon) in the north of the occupied Golan

    It should be noted that the rest of the explosions or hits in other areas of the occupied territories are related to the confrontation of the Israeli air defense systems with the projectiles in the sky or the falling of the wreckage of the interceptor missiles or the wreckage of Iranian missiles.

    🇮🇷🇮🇱 Iran strikes back, what will Israel do next?

    CIA veteran Larry Johnson explains how Iran’s massive drone and missile attack exposed some major vulnerabilities on Israel’s part.

    “What we see is that despite all of the bombast and chest thumping coming out of Israel about its enormous capabilities, Iran showed today that Israel is quite vulnerable.”
