    Does that change the fact that Tel Aviv and Haifa got hammered?

    Israel could not stop Iran from hitting Israeli cities. Israel’s air defence was shown to be ineffective.

      The title was, “Iran says powerful military response forced Israel to halt aggression unilaterally”. That isn’t what happened. It’s delusional.

        I would venture to guess that the unilateral phrasing is referring to the fact that Iran’s response did force Israel to turn to the US to intervene and broker a pause in hostility… thus halting Israel’s aggression.

        They did this without the offered aid from Russia or China. Unlike Israel who started the aggression and required the US to step in on its behalf

          Hasn’t Iran been funding attacks by proxies on Israel for years? Weren’t they supposed to be part of a coordinated attack against Israel but Hamas jumped the gun?
