The IDF (Israeli Defense Force) announces few hours ago that Iran had launched dozens of surface to surface missile launches, “The IDF Aerial Defense Array successfully intercepted the majority of the launches using the Arrow Aerial Defense System before the launches crossed into Israeli territory.” Minor damages was reported in the Israeli base at Southern Israeli as reported by the IDF. . Iran defended the attack as a justified response to Israeli aggression, citing the need to protect its interests and maintain regional peace. In a statement, Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs referenced Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, asserting its right to self-defense. “Iran’s resort to defensive measures in exercise of its right of self-defense demonstrates Iran's responsible approach toward regional, international peace & security at a time when the occupying apartheid regime's pattern of relentless genocidal campaign against Palestinian people is accompanied with repeated military aggression against neighboring States, fanning the flames across the region &beyond. Iran would not hesitate to take further necessary defensive measures to protect its legitimate interests against any act of military aggression, and unlawful use of force.” Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued another statement regarding the attacks on Israel, “On 14 April 2024, the Islamic Republic of Iran's armed forces have carried out a series of military strikes on Israeli's military bases in response to, and in exercise of its inherent right of self-defense as recognized under Article 51 of the Charter, against Israel's recurring military aggressions, resulting in the martyrdom of the Iranian military advisors present in Syria at the invitation of the Syrian government, in particular the 1 April armed attack against diplomatic premises of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Damascus. The Islamic Republic of Iran reaffirms its commitment to the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, while reiterating its determination to forcefully defend its sovereignty, territorial integrity and national interests against any unlawful use of force and aggressions. The Islamic Republic of Iran's resort to defensive measures in exercise of its right of self-defense demonstrates Iran's responsible approach toward regional and international peace and security at a time when the occupying apartheid regime's pattern of relentless genocidal campaign against Palestinian people is accompanied with repeated military aggressions against neighboring States and fanning the flames across the region and beyond. The Islamic Republic of Iran would not hesitate to take further necessary defensive measures to protect its legitimate interests against any act of military aggression or unlawful use of force.” Meanwhile, two hours ago Israel’s Military spokesperson Lt Col Peter Lerner released a report regarding the attack with the following figures “180 explosive drones, 120 ballistic missiles, 30 cruise missiles - all with the intention to kill Israelis. 99% intercepted together Together we saved lives.” This incident marks a dangerous escalation, hinting at a looming regional conflict with global ramifications.
