The Israeli military acknowledged, Wednesday, the Iranian missile strike on Tuesday evening caused damage to its air bases, but downplayed its significance and did not disclose their locations.

Israeli Army Radio said several air force bases were damaged in the Iranian attack, but “there was no damage to their infrastructure.”

Israeli news platforms also quoted the military as saying that there were no injuries to aircraft or weapons, and the military denied Iran had fired supersonic missiles in its attack on Israel.

Anadolu Agency quoted an Israeli military source as saying that the missiles “caused damage to administrative buildings (inside the air bases)… in the shell, not in the core.”

The source refused to disclose the damaged sites, saying: “There is no damage to continuity or follow-up plans, and the evidence is that the aircraft landed and took off from all the bases.”

The Israeli propagandists released this video admitting that their airbases were hit by Iran but nothing was damaged.

The same source also denied that any Israelis were injured in the Iranian attack.

Targeting Mossad Headquarters

Earlier, the American website Axios quoted an Israeli military official as saying that dozens of Iranian missiles were fired at the headquarters of the Foreign Intelligence Service (Mossad) in Tel Aviv, but he said none of them fell inside the complex.

Also, CNN said that an analysis of video clips showed that an Iranian missile exploded less than one kilometer from the Mossad headquarters.

Iran launched a barrage of missiles at Israel, Tuesday evening, in an attack it said was in response to the assassination of the head of the Hamas political bureau Ismail Haniyeh, Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, and commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, Abbas Nilforoushan.

Following the strike Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian warned: “if the Zionists make any mistakes, they will receive a stronger and more destructive response.”

Iranian Chief of Staff General Mohammad Bagheri revealed that the strike targeted three main air bases and a Mossad headquarters.

He said among them were the Nevatim base, which houses F-35 fighter jets, and the Hatzerim base, which he said was responsible for the assassination of Nasrallah, adding that the attack targeted radars and a gathering of tanks and armored personnel carriers in the Gaza Strip.

Israel imposes strict media censorship on what is published about its losses, in light of its war on Gaza, which has been ongoing for about a year, and its current attack on Lebanon, which is the largest since the 2006 war according to Al Jazeera.

The ballistic missiles argued to be made in two rounds, no more than five minutes within each other, amounted up to 250, although different media sources like Al Jazeera settled on 180 ballistic missiles that directly came across from Iran.

In a preliminary statement, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRCG) said the attack was in response to the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, and IRGC Commander Abbas Nilforoshan according to Anadolu.

The social media has been going crazy with commentary and images of the missiles coming in droves over Israel in a first-time development and hit different cities and strategic locations in Israel like Tel Aviv, Ashkelon and the Negev desert.

The Israeli army has been telling its citizens, all-day Tuesday, to stay in or near underground shelters because of the missiles, namely Fadi 4 rockets that were being fired by Hezbollah operatives from across the border.

Just before the blasts media outlets were saying that US intelligence sources were conveying to the Israelis than an attack from Iran was imminent and to be prepared for.

When the massive attack happened however, it was surprise jolts, coming over the Jordan night skies where it was visibly seen and heard.

“This operation is our legal right to defend ourselves,” the Revolutionary Guard pointed out in its statement. Iran’s mission to the United Nations stated that “If Israel dares to retaliate or commits malicious acts, our response will be devastating,” as reported by the Quds News Network.

Pope Francis: Gaza, Lebanon Bombings ‘Immoral’

Pope Francis, Sunday, said Israel’s attacks in Gaza and Lebanon are “immoral” and “disproportionate.”

During his flight back from a four-day trip to Luxembourg and Belgium, the pope was asked about Israel’s targeted killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Friday’s strike on Beirut, which led to many casualties and reduced many buildings to rubble.

“Every day I call the parish of Gaza. More than 600 people are there, inside the parish and the college, and they tell me about the things that are happening, including the cruelties that are occurring there,” he told journalists.

“What you are telling me—I didn’t quite understand how things have been — but defense must always be proportionate to the attack,” he added.

The Israeli army has pounded Lebanon against what it called Hezbollah targets since Sept. 23, killing at least 816 people and injuring over 2,500 others, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry. The heavy bombardment also targeted senior Hezbollah commanders and forced tens of thousands of civilians to flee their homes.

Asked about Israel’s bombing of Lebanon, Pope Francis said “When there is something disproportionate, there is a dominating tendency that goes beyond morality…A country that does these things…these are immoral actions." https://t.co/OTzBlkuGE6

Hezbollah and Israel have been engaged in cross-border warfare since the start of Israel’s war on Gaza, which has killed more than 41,000 people, mostly women and children, following a cross-border attack by Hamas last Oct. 7.

“When there is something disproportionate, a domineering tendency that goes beyond morality is evident,” the pope said.

“A country that, with its forces, does these things—I’m talking about any country—that does these things in such a “superlative” way, these are immoral actions,” he added according to the Anadolu news agency.

“Even in war, there is morality to be safe-guarded. War is immoral, but the rules of war indicate some morality. But when this is not respected, you can see—as we say in Argentina—the “bad blood” of these things.”

The French newspaper “Le Parisien” claimed that “an Iranian spy informed Israel of the news of the arrival of the Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah to the southern suburb of Beirut following the funeral of the leader of the party’s drone unit, Mohammed Sorur, and that the deputy commander of the Quds Force in Lebanon, Abbas Nilforoushan, was with him in the same car.

The newspaper reported “Israel waited for Nasrallah’s meeting with the party’s leaders to begin before carrying out the raid,” revealing that “Nasrallah and the party’s leaders met in a location 30 meters underground.

In addition to Nasrallah and the deputy commander of the Iranian Quds Force, 12 senior Hezbollah officials attended the meeting.”

The Israeli Channel 12 reported “the commander of the Lebanese region in Israeli military intelligence was the one who ordered the raid on Nasrallah, who was inside an underground hole in the southern suburb.” The channel said that “the same official was at the army headquarters in Tel Aviv during the execution,” adding: “The raid on the suburb was planned in advance due to information built over the years by the Shin Bet and Mossad.”

The attack began after the Israeli Air Force dropped 80 MK84 bunker-busting bombs, each weighing one ton, according to a report by the Israeli Broadcasting Authority, while each bomb is capable of penetrating fortifications at a depth of 50 to 70 meters underground.

It was “Unit 119’, known as ‘the Bat’ in the Israeli Air Force that carried out the operation, while the aircrafts that carried out the attack are of the F-15 variety.
