Iran launched a major attack on Israel between Saturday and Sunday with hundreds of drones and missiles. Iran's IRGC said it carried out the attack in response to continuing crimes by the Jewish state of Israel. Along with America and Britain, two Muslim countries have also come forward to help Israel against this attack.
Iran has launched a major attack on Israel. Iran has fired hundreds of drones and missiles at Israel, most of which Israel has claimed to have shot down in the air. But some have fallen into Israeli territory, including one at an Israeli army base in the south. Meanwhile, big news has come out that two Muslim countries have openly supported Israel to stop Iranian attacks and have also destroyed Iranian drones and missiles. Israel's neighbor Jordan has played an important role in stopping Iran's attacks, while Saudi Arabia, a large and influential Muslim country in the region, has also helped.
According to reports, Jordanian jets shot down dozens of drones flying towards Israel from northern and central Jordan. Jordan sending its jets to help Israel is a big step, as Amman has previously heavily criticized Israel for its operations in Gaza. Sources say the drone was launched into the air over the Jordan Valley and headed towards Jerusalem. Others were stopped near the Iraqi-Syrian border. They do not provide any further details.
Saudi Arabia appealed for restraint
Saudi Arabia's Foreign Ministry has expressed concern over the “military escalation” in the region and appealed for restraint from all sides to prevent “threats of war.” In a statement issued by Saudi Arabia's official agency, the kingdom warned of serious consequences if the conflict escalates.
America and Britain shot down more than 100 drones
Israel's military has said that more than 100 Iranian drones were destroyed before they reached Israeli airspace. The statement said that the drone was shot down by America and Britain. The US Army has also confirmed that it has shot down a drone heading towards Israel. The attack on Israel did not come only from Iran. Iran's proxy Hezbollah has also fired rockets into Lebanon.
Iran threatens Jordan
Iran's IRGC has threatened Jordan that if it helps Israel, it will be the next target. According to the information, “Iran's military is closely monitoring Jordan's activities during the attack against the Zionist regime and if Jordan intervenes, it will be the next target.”
