Snip:

The latest wave of the retaliatory operation, which began Wednesday afternoon in response to the Israeli regime’s brutal aggression against the Islamic Republic, came barely hours after Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei issued a message.

Ayatollah Khamenei said the Iranian nation will “firmly stand" against an imposed war and will never surrender to “any form of imposition.”

Images shared on social media showed missiles fired from different parts of Iran moving in an unusual manner in night sky and evading the multi-tier Israeli air defense systems.

Several of the missiles, some of them belonging to the new-generation stock, struck their targets with precision, including military and intelligence sites belonging to the regime.
