An aerial assault was launched by Iran against Israel overnight: The Israeli army says more than 300 missiles and drones were fired. It is the first time Iran has launched a direct military attack on Israel despite decades of hostility.
There's been calm over Jerusalem and Tel Aviv in the wake of the barrage. Almost all the missiles were intercepted by Israel and the US. The UK and Jordan have also shot down drones. Air raid sirens sounded across Israel. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard says the assault was in retaliation for an attack on its embassy in Syria on April 1st which killed 16 people including several Iranian generals. What considerations will Israel have to take into account as it decides how to respond? How difficult will it be for Israel and the US to agree on a clear response to this attack?
If it decides to retaliate, will Israel be able to drum up enough support? And can it respond without the US' support?

    Israel has the right to defend itself, but Iran don't. Which UN charter says so??
  • @MissSarahGM
    Who started attacking them? Media always forget to give the whole chronology of events.
  • @f.6347
    If you ever feel useless remember that the UN is still there
  • @terris7841
    Why can't the world just get along? If we put the same effort and support into helping each other, as we do in war, imagine what could be accomplished.

    Clearly It is an international double standard.

  • @samsmith2635
    How should they respond? they shouldn't, its not the US business for one, secondly Israel bombed an embassy of a foreign nation in another foreign nation. This is a response to Israel...
  • @mzaki4949
    german lyes. When irsael does it it's "retaliation" but when Iran does it it's "attack".
  • @badomen9057
    Germany talking about danger of escalation meanwhile providing weapons to Israel is true hypocrisy

  • @saidul02
    isn't Biden saying if you hurt an American we will respond? why does Iran cant do the same? what condemnations now?
  • @JustMeJarvis
    Ok so Israel attacks the Iranian embassy fully expecting that the Iranians would not retaliate. When Iran retaliates, Israel and the world calls them monsters. Am I getting this right?
  • @Victorylooms
    Sunak calls Iranian retaliation 'reckless'. What did he say about the Israeli attack of Iranian embassy? Maybe I missed it.
  • @user-wl1pn6sk6s

  • @user-gc2vf5dm2k
    99% of 3-400 missiles intercepted…? R they doing the maths on this? So only 3-4 missiles landed
  • @yassoune71
    US and its allies has condemned Iranian retaliation. What about Israel reckless bombing and ethnic cleansing in Gaza? Do you condemn Israel? Iran has the right to defend itself.
