Following Iran's recent attack on Israel, where 99 percent of missiles and drones were intercepted, a notable Western-regional alliance emerged with Jordan, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia supporting Israel against Iran's aggression. This event serves as a test for Iran, potentially provoking Israel into a retaliatory strike that could strain alliances.
Experts suggest that Iran's attack exercise aimed to assess Israel's air defense capabilities, highlighting the need for improved strategies to counter potential future attacks combining UAVs and missiles. The missile strike has also influenced the debate over Gaza, prompting swift support from Israel's allies like the UK, US, and France to prevent further escalation in the region, despite existing tensions.
While Israel plans a forceful response to the attack, efforts are being made to avoid a full-blown war, with the US being informed about the situation and warnings issued against Middle East escalation. Iran's disclosure of missile and drone details from the attack, including long-range capabilities, has further fueled concerns about rising tensions in the region.
