Did Israel get what it wanted from attacking Iran?

Israel and Iran have agreed to a ceasefire after 12 days of fighting, which began when Israel attacked Iranian military targets on June 13.

The war has met Israel's core goals, which were strictly security-based and not aimed at regime change, according to the country's UN International Spokesperson Jonathan Harounoff.

In an interview with The Jewish Independent, Harounoff said Israel's attack was a carefully planned operation with specific military objectives.

“The timing was not an impulsive decision, it was the culmination of years and years of intelligence gathering, pointing towards a very concrete, concerning plan to completely annihilate the state of Israel through multiple means,” Harounoff said.
