Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in turn, said that Tehran had made a big mistake and would pay for it. According to media reports, after a meeting with the military cabinet, the head of the Israeli government announced the decision to take a "tough response" to Iran's missile attack.
NBC, citing its sources, claims that Israel will quickly take revenge on Tehran. At the same time, according to the media, the planning schedule for the attack is "a little complicated" due to the Israeli New Year holiday Rosh Hashanah.
Tehran, for its part, warned Tel Aviv that in the event of an attack from its side, the response would be stronger and more powerful than the previous one.
