Israeli Government Keeps Meeting Locations Secret for Fear of Iranian Retaliation


The Israeli government has decided not to meet regularly in one location due to the threat of an Iranian attack.

The Israeli Broadcasting Authority reported that “the cabinet session will not take place today (Monday) regularly at the cabinet office in Jerusalem and Kiryat in Tel Aviv for security reasons.”

This Israeli step follows the government’s decision today, Monday, to change the meeting location after it had been disclosed.

Israel thanks the U.S. for its “covert cooperation”… four discreet contributions to the strike on Iran.

The broadcasting authority stated that the cabinet secretariat accidentally revealed the meeting site.

It also noted that the Ministry of Defense believes that Tehran is expected to retaliate following the Israeli strike inside Iran.

Israel launched a three-wave attack last Saturday targeting Iranian military sites.

After the attack, Iran sought to downplay it, while Israel claimed that it had achieved its objectives accurately.

A security source cited by the Israeli Broadcasting Authority said: “All the targets we planned to attack were hit.”

The Israeli strike was in response to an Iranian attack earlier this month, when Tehran targeted the Hebrew state with approximately 200 ballistic missiles.

According to the Israeli narrative, reported by the broadcasting authority from unnamed sources, “the situation in Iran has changed dramatically after the attack, and there are entire areas in Iran that have become vulnerable after air defense systems were hit, allowing Israel to conduct additional strikes in the future.”

The Israeli Broadcasting Authority also indicated that “in recent days, the Israeli army command has assessed the situation, and the Ministry of Defense estimated that the Iranians would respond immediately within a few hours, but that did not happen. Apparently, the Iranians took the necessary time to assess the damage and investigate the air defense systems, which had failed to thwart the attack.”

It added: “Israel remains vague about the damage caused by Iran concerning the 20 targets that were attacked, but informed sources have indicated that there was significant damage to the radars of the S-300 batteries stationed around Tehran, and considerable damage to the Iranian ballistic missile production system.”

An Israeli official stated that “some Iranian industrial sites were hit, but the damage is still being assessed.”

Earlier this month, Hezbollah targeted the home of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the city of Caesarea.

Targeting Netanyahu‘s home marks a shift in the nature of the target bank of what has come to be known as the “resistance axis.”
