Era of strategic patience with 'Israel' has passed: Iran Pres. Aide
Iranian officials have affirmed that their country is employing a new strategic equation against Israeli aggression.
The Deputy Chief of Staff for Political Affairs to the Iranian President, Mohammad Jamshidi, announced that the political equation against the Israeli occupation "has completely shifted".
He affirmed on X that targeting Iran's forces and assets would be met with a direct response. He added that Operation True Promise encompassed the end of strategic patience toward the Israeli regime's evils, noting that Iran has defeated "Israel's" strategy of "war between wars".
معنی راهبردی عملیات پیروزمندانه وعده صادق آنست که دوران صبر راهبردی در قبال شرارت های رژیم به پایان رسیده و ایران استراتژی آنها مبنی بر جنگ بین جنگ ها را به شکست کشانده است. اکنون معادله راهبردی تغییر کرده است. هدف قرار دادن نیروها و دارایی های ایران با پاسخ مستقیم مواجه میشود.

In the same context, the commander of the Iranian Revolution Guard Corps, Brigadier General Hussein Salami, reiterated that Iran is now employing a new strategic equation consisting of direct responses to any Israeli aggression against Iranian territories.
Top Iranian officials warn against Israeli aggression
On his part, Iran's foreign minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian warned "Israel" and the US that any attack on Iranian interests would be met with Iran's retaliation.
In turn, the Commander-in-Chief of the Iranian Army, Major General Sayyed Abdolrahim Mousavi, warned the Israeli occupation entity against insisting on continuing its attacks, stressing that Tehran would face new Israeli attacks with harsher and stronger punishments.
The Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Major General Mohammad Bagheri, announced on Sunday that two important Israeli military sites were targeted in Iran's response.
According to Bagheri, the Israeli intelligence's headquarters in "Mount Hermon," and the Nevatim Air Base were destroyed in the operation carried out earlier today.
Bagheri pointed out that the attack, which was carried out with ballistic and cruise missiles, "was planned to target the airbase from which the Israeli aircraft that attacked our consulate departed."
“A considerable number of drones and cruise and ballistic missiles have been used in this operation with well-thought-out tactics and proper planning, as neither the Iron Dome nor the Zionist regime’s missile defense shield could take any significant action against this operation."
"The operation’s purposes have been fulfilled,” the Bagheri declared.
