TEHRAN – An Iranian official said the country will intensify its retaliatory strikes against the Zionist regime in response to the recent Israeli attacks on Iranian residential areas as well as military and nuclear sites.
Iran will intensify its attacks on the Israeli regime and target the regional bases of any country that tries to defend the regime, a senior Iranian official told CNN.
The official noted that Iran reserves the legitimate right to respond to the Israeli regime’s act of aggression that claimed the lives of several top Iranian military commanders and nuclear scientists in the early hours of June 13.
Iran on Friday night launched a barrage of ballistic missiles at the Israeli targets during Operation True Promise III.
The retaliatory operation was carried out in compliance with the directive of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution and Commander-in-Chief of Iran’s Armed Forces and in response to the demand of the noble Iranian people, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) said.
During Operation True Promise III, hundreds of missiles were fired by Iran and successfully breached the Zionists’ much-touted multi-layered air defense system.
