According to the report, the targets include an Iranian facility in Tehran or a cyberattack.

In a visit to the Nevatim base on Monday, IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi said that the Iranian attack which was carried out early Sunday morning will be met with an Israeli response, according to Israeli media.

    I don’t really understand a few things about this conflict.

    • What prompted Israel to bomb Iran’s embassy in Syria? I know there are tensions between Israel and Iran. I also know that Israel has been targeting Hezbula targets in Syria. Why attack Iranian generals in Syria?
    • Why would Israel think that they can attack an Iranian embassy without reprisal?
    • Why is Israel acting like the aggrieved party in this instance where they appear to be the aggressor?
    • Why does Israel think it is a good idea to add another front to their current conflict? A stronger front than the one they are currently fighting?

      Iranian generals often instruct and train Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists, since they’re Iranian proxies. Those same groups continously terrorize Israel.

      Iran regularly calls for the destruction of Israel, though generally chooses to fight using their proxies rather than directly attacking Israel. Israel also targets Iranian proxies in Syria on the regular. Why they allegedly hit the Iranian embassy this time, nobody knows. Keep in mind that Israel never officially acknowledged that strike as theirs. People simply assume it because of all of the above.
