IRAN STRIKES ISRAEL!
URGENT - ATTACK DRONES LAUNCHED FROM IRAN; BALLISTIC MISSILES ***FIRED****
United States and Israeli officials say attack drones have been launched from the area of the Iran/Iraq border and are headed to Israel. UPDATE: 500 MISSILES FIRED AT ISRAEL ! ! ! !
They also say ballistic missiles in Iran are fueled and on their launchers in Iran. They believe those missiles will be fired in a few short hours, as the attack drones arrive in Israel.
Worse, with the launch of so many attack drones, the United States and Israel are now discussing a PRE-EMPTIVE ATTACK UPON IRAN to thwart the perceived ballistic missile launches.
For your reference:
DRONES (Reportedly already launched) from Iran will take 9 Hours to strike Israel.
CRUISE MISSILES (if Launched) Would take 2 Hours to strike Israel.
BALLISTIC MISSILES (if launched) Would take 12 MINUTES to strike Israel.
On April 14 of this year, Russian President Vladimir Putin made public that "Russia will support Iran if the United States attacks Iran soil in support of Israel."
This could LITERALLY be the beginning of World War 3.
