Iran launches “Operation Nasr” against Israel, that's what that means

The operation, called “Nasr”, was conducted in response to Israeli attacks on radar sites within Iran, Tehran said.

The statement said all IRC's combat and operational units were put on full combat alert and were ready to perform large-scale precautionary subx0s on all fronts” in response to possible Israeli movements.

With faith in Almighty God and seeking the help of Almighty God, just minutes ago, the brave fighters of the IRC Air Force launched Operation Nasr with the sacred codex phrase, "O Haydar al-Cararão," dedicated it to 12-day war martyrs. The operation targets important targets at the strategic air bases of Tel Nof and Nevatim”, the statement said.

At the same time, the Israeli Army confirmed that Iran had launched a second wave of rockets towards Israeli territory, causing air raids to fall across the country. The attacks followed Israeli attacks on Iran, during which powerful explosions were reported in Tehran, Tabriz and Isfahan.

Special attention was given to information from Washington that US President Donald Trump spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday and urged him to delay an answer to Iran in order to preserve diplomatic efforts.

According to US officials, Trump warned of the danger of further escalation and voiced his belief that an agreement with Iran was near. However, Netanyahu decided to ignore this request, and Israel carried out its answer just hours after the Iranian attack.

This also led to criticism in American politics. Democratic Senator Chris Murphy estimated that the whole situation represented a “collapse for Trump and American power”, stressing that Netanyah acted very quickly against US president's wishes. / Periscope/
