Pretty quiet, no info on what the Israelis did or did not hit inside Iran in their limited strike. Maybe Israel was successful and sent a message, or maybe Israel wasn't successful. Would like to know what the (attempted) message was if any.
But hopefully, both countries have shot their wads and the things will settle down some.
Israel strikes Iran: What we know so far : NPR
Quote:
A senior U.S. military official confirmed to NPR that the Israeli military had conducted missile strikes against Iran. But little else is known about the extent of the strikes and any potential damage, as both Israel and Iran appeared to downplay the attack on Friday morning — which analysts suggest points to an effort to de-escalate regional tensions.
"This is a very dangerous moment, but I think Israel has done about as intelligent a thing as they can do under this circumstance," Gen. Frank McKenzie, retired commander of U.S. Central Command, told Morning Edition. "No one knows exactly what happened and maybe, just maybe, we'll avoid any possibility of significant escalation as a result of it."
