New Delhi: Israel is preparing to give a strong reply to Iran's missile attack. Israel says that this time Iran will not be given a chance to even handle the situation. Israel is preparing to attack Iran's air defense system in its retaliation. Like Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, a big leader of Iran can also be killed.

Israel can also attack Iran's oil and nuclear program. Israeli officials clearly stated that Iran's infrastructure will be the target in our retaliation. Israel can destroy Iran's economy by targeting its power plants and oil plants.

What counter options does Israel have?

According to the Axios report, Israeli officials said that Israel will give a befitting reply to Iran's big missile attack in a few days. Israel can target oil production facilities and other strategic sites inside Iran. Iran said that if Israel retaliates, it will also be responded to. In such a situation, Israel can attack Iran's nuclear program.

Israel is planning to attack Iran with its advanced fighter jets. Apart from this, the intelligence agency Mossad can also carry out a major operation on the lines of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.

An Israeli official told Axios, "The big question before us is how to attack Iran. But the attack will be done with full force. All the Israeli ministers also said that the attack should be such that Iran is forced to regret its attack.

What happened on Tuesday?

On the night of October 1, i.e. Tuesday, Iran attacked Israel with 181 ballistic missiles. Many of these missiles were intercepted by Israeli and American air defense systems. However, some missiles fell on Israel's Air Force base, Mossad headquarters and open spaces. According to an Israeli defense official, dozens of missiles were fired targeting the Mossad headquarters. However, no missile fell on the premises.

Round of meetings continues in Israel

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a major meeting with Israeli security chiefs at the IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv on Wednesday. How to respond to Iran was discussed in the meeting.

The Israeli security cabinet held an hours-long meeting in a bunker in Jerusalem on Wednesday. It was decided in the meeting that Israel would attack Iran militarily.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Iran has made a big mistake tonight. It will pay the price for this. Whoever attacks us, we will attack them.

Why is the world worried?

Military analysts believe that this time Israel can launch a major counter attack on Iran. In such a situation, Iran has also talked about retaliating. If this happens, the war is sure to spread on a large scale. For the first time both the countries have come so close to war.

The opposition is also united

The Israeli opposition is also united on the issue of responding to Iran. There is a constant talk in Israel about teaching Iran a lesson.

"The Ayatollah regime has crossed a red line. Israel will not remain silent over this attack against its citizens," Foreign Minister Israel Katz said.

“Iran has not learned the lesson that those who attack Israel pay a heavy price,” Defense Secretary Gallant said.

Opposition leader Yair Lapid said Israel's response against Iran must be harsh. It should send a clear message to Iran, Yemen, Syria, Lebanon and Gaza.

Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said that such an opportunity comes once in 50 years. We need to destroy Iran's nuclear program. We need to attack Iran's energy facilities. 

What's going on behind the scenes?

US President Joe Biden has made it clear that he is not in favor of attacking Iran's nuclear program. But before the attack, Israel wants to take America into its confidence. Biden said that we will discuss what Israel is going to do in Iran. Biden has also talked about imposing more sanctions on Iran.

Israel also knows that if it attacks Iran, it will retaliate. In such a situation, Israel wants defensive support from the US Central Command against the Iranian attack. At the same time, it also wants more ammunition and other military equipment from America for the Israeli Air Force.

America is considering increasing military deployment in the Middle East. It has also put its Air Force and Navy on alert. America has also discussed with the G-7 countries. In such an emergency, America and its allies are preparing to provide military help to Israel.

On April 1 this year, Israel carried out an airstrike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, Syria. Seven Iranian generals were killed in the attack. In response, Iran attacked Israel with about 300 missiles and drones. But Israel did not suffer any major damage.

Israel had talked about retaliatory attack at that time also. But due to heavy pressure from America, Israel had launched a limited attack. Iran did not suffer any major damage in this. America had appealed to both the sides to exercise restraint.

After the Iranian attack on October 1, Tuesday, America's language has changed. This time America did not talk about exercising restraint. American National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said on Wednesday that Iran will have to face serious consequences. America stands with Israel. It is believed that if the war escalates, America may also get involved in it.
