Iran Attack on Israel: Hamas welcomes Iran’s attack on Israel, calls it a ‘welcome response’
In an unprecedented move, Iran launched a retaliatory attack against Israel on Saturday (April 13), following an Israeli airstrike on its consulate in Damascus on April 1, resulting in the deaths of seven officers.
While tensions escalated, Israeli residents in Jerusalem voiced their reluctance for a war with Iran.
Despite the attack, a report from the news agency Reuters indicated that Israel experienced only modest damage and subsequently reopened its airspace.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken urged Hamas on Monday to promptly accept Israel's recent and notably generous proposal for a Gaza ceasefire to facilitate the release of hostages. This call comes amidst ongoing diplomatic efforts to resolve the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Hamas negotiators were anticipated to convene with Qatari and Egyptian mediators in Cairo on Monday to provide a response to Israel's phased truce proposal, which was presented over the weekend. This comes ahead of potential Israeli action targeting the southern border city of Rafah.

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian announced that the crew of a Portuguese-flagged ship, allegedly linked to Israel and including Indian nationals, has been granted consular access and is expected to be released. This information, reported by Reuters citing Iranian media, sheds light on the situation surrounding the container vessel MSC Aries, which had a crew of 25 members, including 17 Indians. Notably, one of the Indian crew members, Ann Tessa Joseph, was released and returned home on April 18. The seizure of MSC Aries by Iran's Revolutionary Guards occurred in the Strait of Hormuz on April 13, shortly after Tehran declared its intent to retaliate for a suspected Israeli strike on its consulate in Damascus.

This is the moment Iran launched more than 300 drone and missile attacks on multiple cities in Israel for the first time. Tehran’s attack is in retaliation to an airstrike on an Iranian diplomatic building in Damascus, Syria which killed two generals and several of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) officers earlier this month. Iran told local media that the attack “achieved all its objectives”, and warned it would use greater force if Israel retaliates. Israel hailed its successful air defences, claiming that it and its allies intercepted most targets. Its military also said that one child had been injured. Report by Bangurak.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed on Sunday that his country would emerge victorious after the military reported successfully intercepting almost all of the more than 300 drones and missiles launched by Iran, marking a significant escalation in the Middle East conflict. Tehran's attacks, launched in retaliation for a suspected Israeli airstrike on its embassy compound in Damascus on April 1 that resulted in the deaths of officers from the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, have heightened the risk of a broader regional conflict.
