Israeli Ambassador to the U.N., Danny Danon, stated that Israel’s response to the Iranian missile attack will be noticed and painful, aimed at the radical regime, not the Iranian people. The U.S. Embassy in Israel has lifted its shelter-in-place order due to decreased missile threat, but travel restrictions remain. Hezbollah claimed to have forced Israeli soldiers to retreat from the Lebanese town of Adaisseh, marking the first known ground clashes between the two sides. The Israeli military announced the deployment of infantry and armored units into southern Lebanon to target Hezbollah, accompanied by air and artillery forces.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi stated that Iran has no intention of continuing strikes on Israel but warned of an even tougher response to any Israeli retaliation. He also warned the U.S. not to interfere. Iran launched nearly 200 missiles at Israeli military targets, with many intercepted, resulting in no reported casualties. In Tel Aviv, a terrorist attack led to the death of six people, according to Israeli police. These events reflect escalating tensions between Israel, Iran, and Hezbollah, with the potential for further clashes and responses.
