Israel and Iran continue to attack each other.

And this is expected to continue for at least three weeks.

– We have thousands of targets ahead of us, says IDF spokeswoman Effie Defrin.

The Israeli Air Force has carried out around 400 attacks in western and central Iran since February 28, according to the Israeli military IDF.

But they are not done yet. The attacks are said to be aimed at the “infrastructure of the terrorist regime”.

– We have, in coordination with our American allies, drawn up plans that extend at least until the Jewish holiday of Pesach, in about three weeks, IDF spokeswoman Effie Defrin tells CNN.

Trump: Conditions too bad

After that, there are more far-reaching plans for another three weeks ahead with “thousands of targets” left to attack.

According to Israeli sources, the US and Israel have carried out several thousand attacks on Iran since the war began, writes CNN.

US President Donald Trump said in an interview with NBC News last night that the US is not ready to make peace either – because the conditions are too bad. There he also threatened more attacks on the oil island of Kharg.

– We might bomb them a little more just for fun.

Continued attacks

Iran has fired several missiles at Israel on Sunday. Among other things, at central Israel and Tel Aviv.

Since Iran-backed Hezbollah entered the war, several attacks have been directed at Israel from there. Defrin says the war against Hezbollah will continue even if there is peace with Iran.

An Israeli official said on Saturday that the IDF is planning an expanded ground invasion of Lebanon to push Hezbollah north.

– We will do what we did in Gaza.
