Iran Prepares to Counter Israeli Attack with Russian Weapons
Tehran intends to use fighter jets and anti-aircraft missile systems previously purchased from Russia against American-made F-16 and F-35 fighter jets. This is reported by military Telegram channels. At the same time, it is reported that Tel Aviv may launch its own strike on Iran in the coming hours. According to Israeli media, Jordan has already received a warning about Israel's attack on the Islamic Republic.
Recall that Israel announced its intention to strike Iran in response to the October 1 missile attack, which Tehran called a retaliatory strike to the assassination of Hamas Politburo chief Ismail Haniyeh. At the same time, the Islamic Republic emphasized that it intends to respond extremely harshly to a possible Israeli strike.
Despite this, Tel Aviv has announced preparations for a so-called retaliatory strike against Iran, which could affect the country's nuclear facilities and oil infrastructure. And some media outlets claim that the US has already begun forming a coalition of countries to carry out a limited operation against Iran.
In this regard, Russian weapons at the disposal of the Islamic Republic will come in handy. Tehran signed an agreement with Moscow back in 2022 to supply 64 Su-35 fighters and two divisions of S-400 air defense systems. The value of the deal was then estimated by experts at $10 billion.
It should be added that at present, the Israel Defense Forces' aviation is carrying out daily strikes on the southern provinces of Lebanon, as well as on Beirut, during which, according to international human rights organizations, a large number of civilians are killed.
In addition, Tel Aviv has already announced a new military operation operations in northern Gaza, in which, in addition to the IDF ground forces, the Israeli Air Force is taking part.
