Report: This is the day Iran will attack Israel

A senior official addressed the nature of the Iranian attack on Israel and the timing of its execution in an interview with CNN: "Iran's response to the Israeli attack will be painful."

Against the backdrop of Israel's preparations for the Iranian attack, and just before the United States presidential elections, a senior official addressed the nature of the attack and the timing of its execution in an interview with CNN.

The senior official said in a conversation with the American network that "Iran's response to the Israeli attack will be painful – it will come the day before the elections in the U.S." We remind you that the elections in the U.S. are expected to take place next Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Defense Minister Aziz Nasirzadeh claimed today (Wednesday) that "Iran's missile production was not affected by Israel's airstrikes on the Islamic Republic on October 26," Reuters reported.

He further claimed that Iran is still capable of "withstanding another dozen missile strikes" against Israel as seen on October 1 and April 13.

But on the other hand, two American researchers said that Israeli airstrikes hit buildings that Iran used to mix solid fuel for ballistic missiles and that this "may have significantly disrupted Iran's ability to produce mass missiles."
