World Will See Our Preparation, When We Strike Iran: Gallant, Israel Defence Minister| Israel-Iran
Israel’s Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said that its air forces is the “key element” in an attack, including against Iran. “After we attack in Iran, both in the State of Israel and in other places will understand what your preparation process includes, and your preparation and readiness. We have a very high trust in your abilities,” Gallant told pilots during a visit to an airbase in southern Israel. Israeli jets have struck multiple buildings in Lebanon’s southern city of Tyre, sending large clouds of black smoke into the air. There were no reports of casualties in the coastal area where the Israeli military had issued evacuation warnings prior to the strikes. The state-run National News Agency reported that an Israeli strike on the nearby town of Maarakeh killed three people. Meanwhile, Lebanon’s Hezbollah militant group fired another barrage of rockets into Israel, including two that set off air raid sirens in Tel Aviv before being intercepted.
