Israel Strikes Back

Townhall Media

We have reports streaming in that Israel has launched retaliatory strikes against Iran. The United States has made it clear that its support for Israel is ironclad, though it wouldn’t support Israel’s counterattacks. The strikes come after Iran launched an unprecedented kamikaze drone and ballistic missile barrage from its soil last weekend.

 We don't know the target or if there are any casualties, but ABC News through US officials are confirming that Israeli missiles have struck inside Iran. Israeli officials told The Washington Post that the strikes were meant to show Iran that Israel had the capability of hitting targets inside their country:

The Israeli military carried out an airstrike inside Iran, an Israeli official said Friday, in retaliation for an Iranian barrage of missiles and drones launched against Israel. It was not clear what damage the strike caused, but the official — who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive military matters — said it was intended to signal to Iran that Israel had the ability to strike inside the country.

The Jewish state had reportedly planned to carry out strikes against Iran over the past week but aborted these operations on at least two occasions.

UPDATE: One of the targets within Isfahan might have been an air base, according to Iranian state media.

UPDATE II: Iran's nuclear sites were reportedly not targeted; all were military targets.

Israel also informed the US of its strikes–US officials were not surprised.
