Iran Launches Multiple Ballistic Missile Salvos At Israel
Iran’s IRGC says “this operation is not a passing event, but rather the beginning of a full week of continuous strikes.”
Iran on Sunday evening launched a wave of ballistic missiles at Israel, violating the ceasefire agreed in April.
The incoming missiles triggered air raid sirens across northern Israel. “This fresh wave of missile attacks is spread across all of Israel, stretching from Haifa to the The IDF has identified recently launched missiles from Iran toward northern Israel, stretching from Haifa to the Golan Heights, and as far south as Hadera,” Israel’s i24NEWS reported.

The Israeli air defense appears to have intercepted the initial strike. “The Israel Air Force says it has intercepted ‘all the missiles launched from Iran so far,'” the BBC reported. “It adds that ‘additional launches’ have been identified and Israel’s military is ‘continuously detecting and intercepting threats’.”
President Trump: “Hopefully, Israel is not going to retaliate”
Media reports suggest that President Donald Trump has urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to refrain from retaliating against the Iranian strikes.
Talking to D.C.-based correspondent of Israel’s Channel 12, Barak Ravid, President Trump said that he will be calling the Israeli prime minister and “tell him not to retaliate,” The Times of Israel reports:
US President Donald Trump says he is going to call Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “right now” to tell him not to hit back at Iran following tonight’s missile attacks from Tehran on northern Israel.
Speaking to Channel 12’s Barak Ravid, Trump says: “The Iranian strikes didn’t hurt anybody. Hopefully, Israel is not going to retaliate. If Bibi strikes them back, it’s just gonna keep going like the last 47 years, or the last 3,000 years.”
Trump adds: “We are very close to a final deal with Iran. It is going to be a good deal. I don’t want it to blow up because of what is happening now.”
“I am going to call Bibi right now and tell him not to retaliate,” Trump adds. “Each of them had their fun. Israel had its strike and Iran had its strike. We don’t need another one.”
“I don’t want to see an additional attack tonight,” Trump reportedly adds.
Spoke with President Trump. We'll have more on Fox News in a few minutes.
"What I would suggest to Iran: You've shot your missiles, that's enough. Get back to the table and make a deal," President Trump told Fox News.

IDF spokesman: “The Iranian terror regime made a grave mistake”
Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is gearing up for the military conflict, with Chief of Staff, Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir “approving plans for the future,” IDF Spokesman, Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin, said shortly after the first Iranian salvo.
“The Iranian terror regime made a grave mistake,” he warned.
Faced with renewed Iranian aggression, Israel is bracing for an escalation. “Home Front Command updated its defensive policy and tightened restrictions nationwide. Schools across Israel will be closed Monday, public gatherings will be limited and beaches will be closed to the public,” Israel’s Ynetnews reported.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) vowed to sustain the aerial attack, saying that “this operation is not a passing event, but rather the beginning of a full week of continuous strikes.”
Israel and Lebanon are at the table negotiating peace.
So the regime in Iran does what it always does. It cannot stand the idea of calm in this region, so tonight it starts bombarding Israel. No provocation. Just violence the moment peace comes within reach.

“President Donald Trump is urging Israel to refrain from retaliating against the Iranian strikes.”
Trump and his f’g deals. He sounds like Biden now. Someone needs to slap him upside the head and tell him you can’t negotiate with terrorists. It never ends well. Maybe his wife will. She seems to have some common sense.
Now, now. Remember the complaints that a cease fire does nothing more than give Iran a breather? Well, that same ceasefire is giving the US and Israel breathers too. And the longer they both breath while Iran is busy expending fruitless effort, the harder they can hit Iran when they decide to do so. Also, preventing Israel from striking now means Israel can strike harder in concert with the US when there’s a plan in place concerning the campaign’s timeline, targets, and goals. Patience is in order here. Just understand that restraint now can translate into a harder blow later.
I understand your point but I disagree. Israel was all set to do a number on Beirut but Trump told them not to. Eventually they did attack but probably with no where near the amount of force they originally planned for.
As for Iran no one likes to sit there and just take it. It isn’t good for the civilian population and it emboldens Iran. At a minimum they should have drones up and over Iran and take out the missile launchers as they are used.
Finally this just shows how stupid the US has been to stop the non stop bombardment for the last month or so. Iran is no closer to agreeing to what the US wants and if anything the US has moved closer to what Iran wants. Any agreement is also meaningless unless it’s a full surrender so what’s the point.
There is only one reason for the US to stop its bombardment and that is because it is out of munitions or dangerously low. I don’t know whether that’s the case. Certainly there has been a lot of speculation about munition’s levels.
Retaliation now evades Congress.
Retaliation later? Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen.
Iran, by its own actions, has proven time and again that it has no interest in coexisting with its neighbors or, for that matter, with the rest of the world. It’s time to quit playing around. Iran needs to be erased.
For those who questioned the need for this conflict, imagine what these violently stupid terrorists would do if they had nuclear missiles. It is fortunate that all they can do is engage in these ineffectual attacks. This is desperation, not strength.
Iran has definitely earned a much larger curb stomping than the USA has delivered so far. That said ….let’s get on with it and stop playing around with ‘negotiations’ as if these fanatics will agree to anything close to an acceptable ‘deal’ o if they did hand Trump/GoP a Midterm Election Year victory in doing so that they’d actually adhere to it.
I respect the Trump 2.0 Admin for choosing this very difficult conflict to bring the Iranian regime to heel. Since ’79 every US President has avoided prolonged military action instead choosing limited or so called proportional strikes. The reasons for that are:
1. Regional instability
2. Iranian proxy forces making mischief simultaneously
3. Potential for wider conflict
4. Pushback from Arab ‘allies’ and European ‘allies’ concerned about riots/domestic unrest/terrorism
5. Oil market disruption, higher fuel prices, PO public
6. Follow on impact in Nat gas supply disruption and fertilizer scarcity leading to higher AG input costs and higher food prices in the developed world with potential for actual food shortages in less wealthy Nations
It was a courageous political undertaking but those six thins are baked into the cake. The follow through is….not. The additional complications now are risk of damaging infrastructure so vast that it turns the Iranian population to support the regime, makes any successor regime bankrupt and/or dependant on massive US investment or vulnerable to anti Western propaganda/creation of hardline insurgents that hamper rebuilding and potentially a ‘demand’ of US ground troops to complete the Nation building.
IMO we should simply start blowing up key infrastructure within our tactical target package each week. If the regime surrenders …great. If they don’t… keep dropping ordinance until they do or there’s no two stones standing together then fire bomb the rubble into slag and go home.
You know my position. Save the infrastructure, The next government will need it. Kill the Revolutionary guard and the government officials. Open up the way for meaningful regime change by eliminating intransigent ones,
If we are unwilling to strike infrastructure to compel their surrender we should stop now and go home. Let the Middle Eastern Nations and the Nations that are directly dependant on maritime traffic via Hormuz (which we ain’t) figure out a satisfactory resolution.
Well you have the military experience I don’t have so I will defer to you.
I will say that aside from Japan no country I’m aware of has every surrendered because of bombing, I’m willing to give it another shot though since it is Iran.
The goal is to remove the regime and limit its ability to create mischief. The lever is the bombing of the infrastructure. Tough to manufacture if the power plants are destroyed. Tough to use water.power when the dams are busted. Tough to irrigate crops when infrastructure destroyed. Can’t shift oil if the internal pipelines are destroyed.
Add two or three of these sorts of targets every 3 or. 4 days to existing target package. Dial up the pressure on the regime AND on the ordinary Iranian populace. Incentives matter and negative incentives can work as well as positive incentives. The populace and the less zealous regular military members (IRGC is akin to the SS) may revolt.
Bottom line is the USA is not gonna be the ‘world police’. We.can’t afford to continue doing the heavy lifting when Nations directly impacted by events refuse to assist. (Nations dependant on oil/gas and fertilizer coming through Strait of Hormuz) Generational divide over this point is large. Younger than Gen X do not support military adventures. Gen X is tolerant of shorter conflict with clearly defined objective goals. IOW.A return to a far more Jacksonian perspective is coming. Trump is PO folks in the center/right populist coalition who voted for him by continued dilly dally negotiations. That is likely to matter in the midterms.
Carpet bomb them to extinction.
There is no peace with barbarians.
And just think what those stupid terrorists would be doing if Trump had actually gone through with his, “Unconditional surrender or we completely destroy your country.” declaration. Not much of anything let alone lobbing missiles at Israel. But nope, we get talk, talk, talk and yah, yah, yah as if it’s possible to deal with these terrorists in any fashion other than wiping them off the face of the planet. The fact that they can do anything at this point is disgusting. The whole war should have been over by now.
If Trump doesn’t give the mullahs multiple chances to come around, the Left in the USA will lambaste him as a war-monger in the leadup to the fall election. If he gives them multiple chances, seems to hold Israel back, allows them to break each cease-fire and then tries again, it will be MUCH harder for the Left to hang the “warmonger” tag on him and the GOP.
Don’t get me wrong, they will still TRY to do so, but rational independents will see through the Left’s lies and hopefully the GOP will be able to hold one (or both) sides of Congress.
Severely disappointed with Trump here.
Israel has every right to retaliate against it’s attackers.
Until the IRGC is completely wiped out and the mullahs fully eliminated, this will continue on forever.
And until Trump agrees to do both his art of the deal is worthless garbage.
“Not now, please.” is NOT the same as “You are NEVER allowed to retaliate.”
That’s what the Left would like you to believe; don’t fall for it.
This why we should have armed the Iranian Kurds and supported them in liberating the country. Focus on brinigng the war to their terrirtory so they can’t be managing anything else let alone bomb anyone else. Oh well, I guess everyone has an opinion. Iran is a tough nut to deal with as it always is when you are dealing with religious zealots. Gangs and dictators are easier, they just take the money and run. But religious terrorists, they want to die because hate is such a powerful motivator.; it makes one feel so certain in their violence, so righteous, so justified. I’m not sure you can negotiate your way out of it?
We DID arm, the kurds, they took the arms and ran with them.
Trump is now treating the Mullahs like rational NY real estate deal makers. Thats his experiential universe. He doesn’t know what to do with irrational, theological zealots. They are not driven by money so you can’t win by blockade. You must kill them!
