Israel’s surprise attack on Iran involved over 200 Israeli aircraft carrying out five waves of airstrikes on dozens of high-value targets with support from covert ground operations.
Israel’s surprise attack on Iran ranks among the Jewish people’s greatest feats, alongside Moses’ parting of the Red Sea, former U.S. ambassador to Israel David Friedman said Friday.
“I would say in the 3,500-year history of the Jewish people, what happened last night is up there with the splitting of the Red Sea, the Six-Day War, and the raid on Entebbe. I mean, it’s that significant and will go down as one of the great events that will hopefully protect the Jewish people … for another 100 years,” Friedman told Fox News.
“The people of Israel right now are feeling a lot better, and I would say people in America woke up this morning a lot safer than they were yesterday because this was a threat that impacts America as well.”
