The Israeli military is planning at least three more weeks of strikes against Iran with “thousands of targets”remaining, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) military spokesperson Effie Defrin has told CNN.
“We are ready, in coordination with our US allies, with plans through at least the Jewish holiday of Passover [from April 1 to 9]... And we have deeper plans for even three weeks beyond that.”
Strikes have continued for a sixteenth day in Iran, Israel, and across several Middle Eastern countries after the United States and Israel began an air campaign against Iran on February 28th. At least 1,444 people have been killed and 18,551 injured in Iran; 15 killed and more than 3,138 others wounded in Israel; 826 killed in Lebanon and dozens others killed in some Gulf nations. The US military has confirmed it suffered 13 fatalities from Iranian attacks across the region.
