⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇷 The US says it hopes Iran will not respond

@medmannews

— 🇮🇷 One of Iran's largest newspapers, 'Vatan Emrooz', front page for tomorrow:

'Iran must respond'

@Middle_East_Spectator

In my estimation, a response is certain. The first direct Israeli attack on Iran cannot go unanswered, no matter how minor it was.

The view of the political and military leadership is also arriving at this conclusion. If we do not respond, we will set a bad precedent for the future, and the scope of Israel's attacks will gradually increase.

Iran now needs to take the reigns into its hand, and begin to take control of the escalation ladder and the pace of the battle.

The time of not responding to 'minor attacks' is over. The Zionists must be disciplined and beaten into submission.

We clearly have the military upper hand, the time to make up for past restraint is now.

🇮🇷| Iran’s national security expert, Mahdi Mohammadi:

“Israel's exposed weaknesses should be leveraged to realign the security and geopolitical equation across the entire region.”

— 🇮🇷 Four locations seem to have been hit, as per the current information:

1. Three to four minor impacts at a missile fuel mixing facility (likely for missiles) in Khojir and some of its support buildings in Parchin. Unclear if the installation was active.

2. One impact on a warehouse in Shamsabad Industrial City near Imam Khomeini Intl. Airport, 'Taksaz Industrial Innovators En.Co', a company related to agriculture and mining equipment.

3. One alleged impact at a radar site near Tehran province.

4. Impacts at radar sites in Dezful / Andimeshk in the South-Western air defense sector in Khuzestan province, and possibly also in Ilam province.

— 🇮🇷 NEW: Satellite imagery shows damage to two mixer buildings in Khojir fuel mixing facility, which is used for making fuel for short to medium range air-defense missiles and ATGMs, NOT ballistic missiles

The sheds still seem to be standing and only partially destroyed, indicating an extremely light warhead or possibly even drones.

The practical impact of this attack is zero. Now we have to wait for satellite imagery of the targeted air defense arrays in South-Western Iran. In any case, so far, so good.

یاران همه رفتند، افسوس که جا مانده منم
حسرتا این گل خارا، همه جا رانده منم
پیر ره آمد و طریق رفتن آموخت
آنکه نا رفته و جا مانده منم

@medmannews

— 🇮🇷/🇮🇱 Homayoun Sameh Najafabadi, the representative of Jewish people in Iranian Parliament: We demand Iran's decisive response at the right time

'The Artesh (conventional military) and the IRGC are working hard to maintain the security of this country and I hope that this action will be carried out even though the Zionist regime did not achieve any results in this aggression.

The ability of the Zionist army to penetrate into Iran's territory has been very weak, and the protection of the country's airspace by the defense system of our country was very effective and excellent.

We support Iran's legitimate defense and demand Iran's decisive response to the aggressive act of the Zionist regime at the right time.'
