Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant provided an assessment of the recent operations in Israel following an attack by Iran involving dozens of drones and missiles. Gallant stated that Israel managed to avoid major damage during the attack, with most of the incoming threats being intercepted. The only exceptions were some debris that fell into sparsely-populated areas.
Gallant emphasized that the attack by Iran showcased the true nature of the country as a terrorist state. He highlighted that Iran not only targeted Israel but also attempted to utilize its proxies in the region. However, Gallant praised the collaborative efforts of Israel, the United States, and other partners in successfully thwarting the attack.
Following the assessment, Gallant and senior officials in Israel's defense establishment began preparations for potential future attacks from Iran and its proxies. Despite the successful defense, Gallant stressed the importance of remaining vigilant and following the instructions provided by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Homefront Command.
Gallant commended the IDF for its impressive operations that resulted in minimal damage to Israeli territory. He acknowledged that while the campaign against the attack was successful, the threat is not completely eliminated, and readiness for any scenario is crucial.
In conclusion, Gallant expressed confidence in the collaborative efforts of Israel, the United States, and their partners in defending against the recent wave of attacks. The successful defense highlighted the strength of the coalition and the effectiveness of their coordinated response.
