Israel and Iran's long-simmering tensions erupted into missile attacks last Friday, when Israel launched a suprise attack against military and nuclear targets in Iran and wiped out the top echelon of Iran's military command.

Iran continued its retaliation against Israeli strikes into the early hours of Saturday morning, following an initial missile barrage it launched late Friday.

Israeli analysts and military officials admit the regime miscalculated in launching aggression against Iran, acknowledging the Islamic Republic's deep-rooted strength, strategic deterrence, and ability to inflict unprecedented damage on the Zionist entity’s core.
