Iran’s air defense force has confirmed Israeli attacks targeting positions in Tehran, Khuzestan and Ilam provinces, saying the aggression was successfully thwarted.
“Despite the previous warnings of the officials of the Islamic Republic to the criminal and illegal Zionist regime to avoid any adventurous action, this fake regime attacked parts of military centers in the provinces of Tehran, Khuzestan and Ilam this morning in a tension-causing action,” the air defense force said in a statement on Saturday morning.
The country’s integrated air defense system successfully intercepted and countered the act of aggression, it said.
The attacks caused limited damage in some locations and the dimensions of the incident are under investigation, the statement added.
⚡️ Here’s what I have observed at this point in relation to the Israeli strikes against Iran:
– The Israelis launched a lot of missiles — all from maximum stand-off distance.
– Iran put up a LOT of air defense missiles.
– There are no firm reports nor video evidence (so far)…

Earlier, security sources said the loud sounds heard by some people in the vicinity of Tehran were due to the activation of air defense systems.
Iran’s official IRNA news agency cited a security source as saying on Saturday morning some of the sounds heard in the capital were caused by “defense activity in Tehran.”
The news agency said there were no reports of incidents that required assistance and that the situation at Mehrabad International Airport and the Imam Khomeini International Airport was “normal.”
IRNA said Iranian air defenses “successfully shot down adversarial targets in the airspace around Tehran province.”
Footage shared online captured what appeared to be interceptions over the Iranian capital.

ignored milions marching every day in the UK not to support israeli crimes
Some are saying America’s rich Jews are turning away from Kamala–she is that bad–and they’re now backing Trump for President. They say Trump is so far up Israel’s ass he will support a large Israeli attack on Iran. So maybe Iran could ignore Israel’s latest attack and dismiss it like it was a nothing burger, and prepare themselves for Trump in the White House when Israel might run amok with American forces.
If Hamas and Hezbollah chip away at IOF forces and bases and other relevant sites until the January 21st Inauguration Day that may diminish Israel to the point it is no longer able to attack anybody. If Israel is so depleted then an attack on Iran would surely be a US war and the world will want to see Trump defeated.
In a short video, Scott Ritter says that Iran holds all the cards:

There is active Russian help on Iranian soil, and Israel knows it. So what now? Iran said after its first strike that it will hit hard if Israel retaliates. I am a bit ashamed to admit it, but I hope Iran will do that.
