Iran’s top leader gave an assessment of the large-scale attack on Israel

The army not only showed its strength, but also preserved the international prestige and national pride of the country and the people

– He told.

The main question is not how many missiles we fired and how many hit the target, what really matters is that Iran showed its strength with the operation

– declared Khamenei, who was quoted by Iranian news agencies.

In the latest operation, the armed forces managed to minimize expenditure while maximizing profit.

Khamenei pointed out. He also urged military officials to

work tirelessly to upgrade the army and learn from the enemy’s tactics.

Iran’s attack with more than 300 warheads was in retaliation for a rocket attack attributed to Israel on its embassy in Damascus in early April. Most of the offensive devices were destroyed in the air, causing no significant damage.

Heavy explosions were heard early Friday in the Isfahan area of ​​central Iran, near a military base, and were attributed to Israel in news agency reports, mainly citing high-ranking US officials. According to official Iranian information, the local air defense went into action and destroyed drones. So far, neither Iran nor Israel has confirmed that it was an Israeli operation.
