The Iranian attack on Israel, Macron said, was a “disproportionate response” to the strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, Syria, earlier this month, which Tehran blamed on Israel.
“Instead of targeting Israeli interests outside Israel, they attacked Israel on its soil and attacked from their own soil, which is a first,” he said.
Over the weekend, Iran targeted Israel with five hours of missile and drone strikes, which had limited impact despite Tehran’s assertion that the attack “achieved all its objectives.”
“Whoever harms us, we will harm him,” Netanyahu said in response to the attack. The United States has already warned Israel that it will not participate in any retaliatory measures against Iran.
