Operation Midnight Hammer

Jerusalem and Washington must send an unequivocal message to Tehran that the era of proxy warfare is over and that attacks by proxies will be met with retaliation against Iran.

The focus should be on giving Israeli and US intelligence agencies all the resources and support they need to find out the truth: what survived - and to track it so that it can be destroyed too.

Based on what can be objectively and openly assessed, Israel and the United States achieved overwhelming success at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels.

Amid rising tensions in the Middle East and Iran’s regional assertiveness, a partial retreat from US isolationism has emerged.

The US president said that Iran will immediately cease attacks and Israel will join the ceasefire on the 12th hour of the agreement.

The US and Doha were both warned by Iran that Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar would be targeted by Iranian missiles. The US, in turn, informed Israel of the incoming threat.

"There is no reason for us to criticize what Israel started a week ago, nor is there any reason to criticize what America did last weekend," Merz said. NATO's Rutte defended the US's attack as well.

The US has previously warned Iran against retaliation and emphasized that it is still interested in a diplomatic solution.
