On April 13th, Iran launched roughly 120 cruise and ballistic missiles towards Israel, along with a number of suicide drones. Iran again struck Israel on October 1st, launching some 180 ballistic missiles.Israel retaliated on October 26th, striking Iran’s missile defense network with over 100 warplanes.Following Israel’s retaliatory strike, Brig. Gen. Ali Mohammed Naeini, spokesman for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, vowed that Iran would respond to what he dubbed the “new evil act.”Read In text message, Iran offers Israeli woman $15,000 for intelligence“The response to the recent Zionist aggression against Iran will be inevitable, decisive and beyond the enemy’s awareness,” Naeini said. Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, also declared publicly that his country would respond “harshly” for the October 26th retaliatory strikes, suggesting that both the U.S. and Israel would be targeted “for what they are doing against Iran and the axis of resistance.”Now, however, Iranian sources claimed that Tehran has “postponed the implementation of Operation True Promise 3 against Israel after Trump’s victory.”The sources added that the retaliation was shelved but not permanently nixed, saying that it would be put back on the table after Tehran has an opportunity to engage with the incoming administration.“The Iranian response against Israel is postponed until negotiations with President Trump begin.” 2024 Presidential electionDonald TrumpIran
