Israel Readying To Retaliation Strikes After Explosions At Iranian Military Facilities

The country's intelligence has identified several scenarios.

Israeli intelligence agencies are readying for retaliatory strikes after explosions at Iranian military facilities, according to The Times of Israel.

Security officials held discussions to try to predict when and how Iran would respond to multiple strikes on convoys reportedly delivering weapons and ammunition to Tehran-backed militants in Syria, the news publisher believes.

The series of attacks were widely attributed to Israel, which has a policy of not commenting on such operations.

In addition to retaliatory attacks against targets inside Israel, the security establishment was readying for the possibility that the Islamic Republic would take aim at Israeli tourists, officials, and embassies abroad.

Earlier Monday, Iran threatened retaliation over Israel’s reported involvement in the Isfahan attack, warning Jerusalem “not to play with fire”.

The Iranian official threatened that Tehran would seek revenge. “Israel knows very well that it will receive a response, as happened in the past.” “Those who play with fire are the first to get burned if they decide to start a regional war,” the official said.

As the Charter97.org website reported, on the night of January 29, explosions took place at a number of Iranian military facilities, including a military depot in the central province of Isfahan and an ammunition production center.
