Iranian retaliation won’t target civilians, Israel reported to estimate

Israeli military officials estimate that an Iranian response to the alleged strike on a Damascus mission will not come until after the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr, which ends April 12, Channel 12 news reports.

The army also thinks an attack will target military or strategic assets and not civilian sites.

According to the report, Israel is preparing for the possibility of an attack coming from any of a number of proxies, or from Iran itself, as well as the possibility of a multi-pronged assault.
