Iran vs Israel: ‘This will not be the last attack – it’s become normalised’ ?
*Israel struck Iran's military targets while avoiding oil infrastructure. Israel claims they damaged Iran's missile production capabilities. Officials hope the attack hurt Iran just enough, but not so much that Tehran will respond with yet another attack. Iran initially didn’t immediately vow to respond. Instead, it played down but later on some iranian Officials including president said that we will “give an appropriate response” to the strikes.
So, now Two likely scenarios ahead:
-Everyone acts cool about it, downplays stuff, moves on
-ego’s gets bruised, hits back harder, and markets go crazy
