Israel Strike Against Iran Inside Syria Prompts Counterattack
On April 1, Israeli F-35 jets struck near the Iranian embassy in Damascus, killing an IRGC general and others. Iran’s April 13 counterattack with 300+ missiles and drones, mostly intercepted, seemed more symbolic to avoid escalation. Israel showcased its advanced anti-missile systems, highlighting their technological edge and strategic defense layers like Iron Dome and Arrow. The counterattack underscored regional tensions without intending a full-scale escalation.
