The recent Iranian attack on Israel has caused limited casualties, but there is growing pressure for a response. Despite the Israeli army’s success in intercepting the majority of the missiles and drones, only a small number reached Israeli territory. The defensive measures are estimated to have cost around one billion francs.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to defend against any threat prudently and decisively while coordinating with US President Joe Biden on next steps. Experts suggest that Israel’s response will likely be measured and targeted, focusing on military objectives. The possibility of forming a regional coalition against the Iranian threat is also being explored, with Israel seeking to leverage the situation to strengthen security in the Middle East.
The options for Israel’s response are being carefully considered to avoid further destabilization in the region. With the support of allies and regional partners, Israel is navigating a complex geopolitical landscape to ensure its security and deter future attacks.
