launch that drone attack and we don t know at the moment, but the iranians are downplaying the iranians are downplaying the effect of that attack, they are showing us pictures from isfahan to show us that life is going normally, as if nothing has happened. they said they managed to down these drones and there is no damage that has happened, nobody injured or killed in this attack. are they going to show us more damage? if the iranians would want to retaliate now, i think they will have to show us that this attack was significant and that the coming retaliation would be justified. the coming retaliation would be ustified. justified. and then the present. justified. and then the present, ebrahim - justified. and then the l present, ebrahim raisi, justified. and then the i present, ebrahim raisi, a justified. and then the - present, ebrahim raisi, a lot of people be focused on what he has to say about this and what approach she wants to take now.
the tax, iran seemed to be surprised by the timing, at the very least. that was the impression people were given. indeed, that might be played like that. there might be not co ordination on the timing, but they understand the strategy, exactly like the relationship between israel and the united states, the united states now are saying we have no idea about the timing, but we know that israel were about to strike iran. there is that organic relationship between iran and hamas and hezbollah and this region. on the link actually between this attack that happened and what s happening in gaza and rougher, we understand the israelis had a meeting with the americans last week talking about a response in rafah and an operation in rafah, gave an impression to everyone that israel might not attack iran in
israel wants the world to know that they can attack. isfahan is only 150 kilometres south of the capitol tehran. so attacking isfahan is really significant and the israelis, if they do not want to come out and speak that they were behind that, as exactly they did when they attacked the iranian consulate in syria, this is the way israel does the attacks, they do the attacks, but they do not come out and speak loudly that they did the attack, but all the indications would say that they did the attack. the americans confirmed that there reports from, you know, channel 12, the israeli channel 12, the new york times that they did the attack. that is come from that they did the attack. that is come from al that they did the attack. that is come from al jazeera, - that they did the attack. that is come from aljazeera, this is come from aljazeera, this is a very unverified account. when the israelis to come out and talk about this attack and
escalated between iran and israel is. still, this is what both of them can claim they retaliate back. for israel it was important, it took them six days to hit back on iran or have a mini retaliation, if we can call it that, but it was important for them in order to show their deterrence, is a defence system and what it has been made for themselves in the middle east as a very strong and capable nation to defend itself, it was very important evenif itself, it was very important even if they launched a very small attack against some military facilities in tehran but keeping that in order, i believe today they would have a serious engagement of diplomacy between the regional countries, the united states and other what matt western partners to make them both stop at this point and we will see further
of approach she wants to take now. of course. but what we see from iran now, that iranian airspace more or less is close, showing us that there is something big that has happened, and yes we are waiting to see what the president would say, was the other military leaders would say and how they are assessing that and what would be the retaliation. tote that and what would be the retaliation. retaliation. we ust had a re ort retaliation. we ust had a report from retaliation. we just had a report from afp, - retaliation. we just had a i report from afp, everything retaliation. we just had a - report from afp, everything is changing so quickly and itjust goes to show, doesn t it, they run s main airport has resumed flies. that is according to iranian state media. we saw those pictures from isfahan this morning, looks like normal daily life. so at the moment the scene of where this missile attack, according to us officials, they came from israel took place, is very calm. , ~ israeltook
