The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced on Saturday night that it would carry out strikes on military targets in Iran as part of its response to the attacks on the Jewish state on October 1. CBS News, citing a source, reported that the Israeli attack on Iran was limited to military targets and did not extend to nuclear or oil facilities.

In the morning, the IDF announced the end of the attack on Iran, the planes returned safely to Israel. The army named the targets attacked in Iran, among them – surface-to-air missile systems, air defense capabilities, and production sites for missiles that the republic fired into Israeli territory over the past year.
