Iran announced on Saturday morning that its air defense systems successfully repelled Israeli attacks, which resulted in “limited damage” in certain areas.

In a statement, Iranian air defense reported that Israel targeted military sites in the provinces of Tehran, Khuzestan, and Ilam. Iranian officials, according to the state news agency IRNA, stated that explosions heard throughout the country before dawn on Saturday were linked to air defense activities deployed in various locations around Tehran and other parts of the country.

The semi-official Iranian news agency Tasnim reported that Iran is prepared to respond to “aggression” from Israel. This will be met with a “proportional reaction,” it reported early Saturday morning, referring to Israel’s retaliatory strike. “There is no doubt that Israel will face a proportional reaction for any action it takes,” the Iranian agency reported, quoting an anonymous source.

Israeli Attack on Iran

Israel conducted a series of strikes on military targets in Iran from Friday night into Saturday, describing the action as a response to multiple attacks by Iran and its allies. On October 1, Iran launched around 200 ballistic missiles at Israel, most of which were intercepted. Israel had promised a strong retaliation.

John Brennan, who is currently a senior analyst for national security and intelligence, claims that Iran’s capabilities for retaliation are limited following the recent missile attacks. On October 1, approximately 200 missiles were launched toward Tel Aviv.
