Kyiv • UNN
Israel expects to form a strategic alliance with the United States and allies against the nuclear threat from Iran after successfully defending itself against a massive Iranian missile and drone attack.
Israel has the opportunity to form a strategic alliance against the nuclear threat posed by Iran. In this, the country will be supported by allies who helped repel a massive attack by Iranian drones and missiles last night. This statement was made on Sunday by Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, reports UNN.
The constant training that we have been doing with our American partners has led to impressive results. ... We have the opportunity to create a strategic alliance against this serious threat from Iran, which is threatening to put nuclear explosives on these missiles, which could be an extremely serious threat. The United States, Israel and their allies stand side by side to defend against that threat.
Details
The defense minister also noted that the latest attack was one of the "most dramatic" Israel has ever experienced.
Last night, Israel experienced one of the most dramatic nights we have ever experienced - hundreds of rockets of various types were fired at the State of Israel, including more than 100 ballistic missiles fired from Iran, each with hundreds of kilograms of explosives.
Gallant emphasized that the future strategic alliance is aimed at protecting the country from nuclear danger.
Recall
Iran fired about 300 drones, ballistic and cruise missiles toward Israel on Saturday evening in response to Israel's April 1 attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, which killed seven Islamic Revolutionary Guard officers, including two senior commanders.
Israel claims to have intercepted about 99 percent of the shells and drones launched at their country.
