CNN’s reporter in Tel Aviv just made sure to describe in vivid terms that the Iranian strikes targeted densely populated areas which unfairly places civilians lives at risk.
So it’s been a choice all along to omit that context re Gaza and Lebanon.
⚡️BREAKING: More than 400 ballistic missiles and drones fired at Israel by Iran. Areas across Israel are targeted. Reports that the Netzarim corridor in Gaza is being targeted as well, the Ashkelon gas platform was targeted too. All the airspace across Israel has been shut down, Ben Gurion has been shut down.
🇮🇷Iranian Revolutionary Guard:
In response to the martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and the martyr Nilforoushan, we targeted the heart of the occupied territories.
The operation we carried out was based on a decision from the Supreme National Security Council and with the support of the army. Preliminary statement issued by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard:
If the Zionist regime responds to the operation, it will face violent attacks.
