After the direct attack on Israel by Iran earlier this week, both IDF leaders and Israel’s PM Netanyahu stand firm: Israel will defend itself against Iran. Israel’s IDF Chief of Staff explained that Israel’s response will be “precise and surprising,” reports JNS:

Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi said on Tuesday night following Iran’s ballistic missile attack on Israel that the IDF would respond with “precise and surprising offensive capabilities.”

The Islamic Republic fired more than 180 ballistic missiles at the Jewish state on Tuesday evening, forcing Israel’s entire civilian population of nearly 10 million people into bomb shelters…

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Tehran in the aftermath of the attack that it “made a big mistake and will pay for it.” The premier also said at the start of a Security Cabinet meeting held in a secure bunker in Jerusalem that the strike on Israel “failed” and was “thwarted thanks to Israel’s air defense system, which is the most advanced in the world.”

“The regime in Iran does not understand our determination to defend ourselves and our determination to retaliate against our enemies. They will understand. We will stand by the rule we established: whoever attacks us, we will attack him,” Netanyahu continued.
