Israel hits an Iranian consulate, huge pressure to retaliate. Iran forewarns of retaliation and launches what appears to be a large air strike involving drones & missiles.
Israel say most missiles were stopped, no problem. Iran says military targets were hit, don't attack us again. Relative face saving for both sides.
I think - hope - that will be that for the moment.
Support for Israel has been slowly waning, and now Iran have just given them the go-ahead to attack them.
I shouldn’t have turned the radio on this morning.
The Iranians would have been better off using carrier pigeons.
I'm sure the Israeli response will be marked with its customary restraint.
