Iran can strike Israel from both air and ground — mission to UN

Iran may launch a coordinated air and ground attack on Israel in response to the assassination of the head of Hamas political bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, in Tehran, the country’s permanent mission to the UN said.

"The timing, conditions, and manner of Iran's response will be meticulously orchestrated to ensure that it occurs at a moment of maximum surprise; perhaps when their  eyes are fixed on the skies and their radar screens, they will be taken by surprise from the ground - or perhaps even by a combination of both," the mission told The Wall Street Journal.

At the same time, the Iranian mission pointed out that Tehran does not intend to disrupt negotiations on the settlement of the conflict in the Gaza Strip, where the Israeli army is conducting a military operation against Hamas. The Iranian diplomats said that the response "must be carefully calibrated to avoid any possible adverse impact that could potentially influence a prospective ceasefire."
