Israel is unlikely to dare to attack Iran's nuclear facilities; its threats are empty and do not cause concern in Tehran. This was stated by the representative of the Atomic Energy Organization of the Islamic Republic, Behrouz Kamalvandi.
“Firstly, it is very unlikely that this will happen, secondly, in the event of such stupidity, it is very unlikely that they (Israel - TASS note) will cause any serious damage to Iran, and thirdly, even in the event of damage to the country will be able to restore everything very quickly,” Kamalvandi said in response to a question from a Nour News portal correspondent about the likelihood of an Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. According to him, Israeli threats do not cause any concern in the Islamic republic, but Tehran remains vigilant in any case. On the evening of October 1, Iran launched a massive missile attack on Israel in response to the killings of key figures in the leadership of Hamas, Hezbollah and the Islamic Guard Corps revolution (elite units of the Iranian Armed Forces).
Tehran said 90% of the missiles successfully hit their intended targets, but Israel says Iran launched about 180 missiles and most of them were intercepted. The Israeli General Staff promised to respond to the attack. On October 11, at a press conference in Laos, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted that the implementation of threats to attack Tehran's peaceful nuclear facilities in response to an Iranian missile attack on Israel would become a very serious provocation.
