Tel Aviv: One year has passed since the Hamas attack on Israel. A day before this anniversary, rockets were fired on Israel from Gaza Strip. The already alert Israeli army shot down the rocket in the air. This averted a major disaster in Israel. When Hamas attacked on October 7 last year, about 1,200 Israeli civilians were killed, while more than 250 were taken hostage. To rescue these hostages, the Israeli army is still carrying out military operations in the Gaza Strip.
What did the Israeli army tell?
The Israeli military said rockets fired from northern Gaza struck southern Israel on Sunday, a day before the first anniversary of Hamas’ October 7 attack. “Several missiles were identified entering Israeli territory from the northern Gaza Strip. One missile was intercepted, and the rest fell in open areas,” the army said in a statement. The Israeli military is on alert for attacks ahead of the horrific anniversary of an unprecedented attack by Palestinian militants.
Iran is appealing for peace
During his visit to Syria, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araghchi supported the ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon and warned Israel that his country would respond to any attack. He said Iran’s support for Syria would continue under all circumstances. At a press conference at the conclusion of his one-day visit to Syria, Araghchi said Saturday that his country will continue its assistance and coordination with Syria to support displaced Lebanese refugees, Xinhua news agency reported.
What did Iran say on the possibility of Israeli attack?
On the possibility of an Israeli attack on Iran, Araghchi said, “Any Israeli attack will be responded to. We have done that in the past as well.” Araghchi stressed that any ceasefire conditions must be acceptable to both Palestinians and Lebanese. Asked about Iran’s relations with Syria, Araghchi highlighted the deep strategic partnership between the two countries and said Iran’s support for Syria will continue under all circumstances.
