Meanwhile, US officials are advising Israelis to exercise restraint in any potential response, as reported by US officials and a diplomat familiar with the situation.
The Biden administration is actively working to de-escalate a potential armed conflict that could escalate tensions in the Middle East and involve the United States in a full-scale war. However, it remains uncertain whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will heed this advice, given the political pressures he faces domestically.
Biden essentially advised Netanyahu to "take the win," considering that Israel emerged from the attack largely unharmed.
Iran's decision to directly target Israeli territory, rather than resorting to proxies or clandestine methods to retaliate against Israel's actions, represents a new phase in the enduring rivalry between the two nations.
Certain individuals within the Biden administration have speculated that Netanyahu could be inclined to prolong the conflict to bolster his political position.
Before Iran's retaliatory action, US officials had been discreetly advising Israel to proceed with caution in its response. These advisories have persisted in the aftermath.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Aerospace Force launched tens of missiles and drones in retaliation for the Israeli regime’s terrorist attack on April 1st that martyred several Iranian military commanders and advisers in Syria.
The IRGC commander stated there are authentic reports that the Iranian missiles have hit the Israeli targets. He also emphasized that the retaliatory operation has been considerably more successful than anticipated.
