    Iran’s war games included firing ballistic and cruise missiles.

“Iran’s war games, which included firing ballistic and cruise missiles and a simulation of the Dimona atomic facilities, are part of a psychological warfare and a clear warning to "Israel"," says Israeli media.

Hezi Simantov [from the Israeli Channel 13 News] said that Iran has reported that it successfully practiced attacking the critical center of "Israel" in its missile exercise, adding that "these threats and reports must be viewed not only as part of the psychological warfare, but also as a warning, and a declaration of Iran’s readiness to confront a possible Israeli attack, which is still far away."

"A good deal means a bad deal for Israel "

The Israeli channel noted that “Iran flew various combat and suicide drones over the drill zone in the final stage of The Great Prophet exercise, stressing that Iran wants sanctions inconsistent with the 2015 nuclear deal to be lifted, which ensures a good deal for Iran and a bad deal for "Israel".”

Military exercises conducted this week by Iran were intended to send a warning to “Israel”, and to everyone who dares to attack Iran's nuclear facilities.

Earlier, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi stressed that all hostile moves against Iran will be met with a comprehensive, decisive response from the Iranian armed forces, which will change the strategic equations remarkably.

It is noteworthy that the IRGC launched the first operation of accurate and medium-range Cruise missiles from a warship during the Great Prophet 17 maneuvers and carried out aerial operations of multiple purposes using drones.

Footage showed that the missiles, with a range of about 180 kilometers, accurately hit their targets.

Iran repeatedly stresses it only wants to develop a civil, peaceful nuclear program, but Western powers claim its stocks of enriched uranium could be used to develop a nuclear weapon, a claim repeatedly refuted by Iranian officials.
