Israel announced that it had successfully defended itself against drone and missile attacks carried out by Iran on the evening of April 13 (local time), but the cost was not small.
According to RT, Israeli Brigadier General Reem Aminoach revealed to the Ynet News media on April 14 that in response to Iran's attack, the country used interceptor missiles, jet fuel and other equipment worth a total of about $1.06 billion to $1.33 billion. This estimate only includes Israel's direct costs, not the significant amount of weapons that the US and other allies used to support Israel against the attack.
Israel used weapons such as the Arrow and David's Sling interceptors, which cost about $3.5 million and $1 million each, respectively, Aminoach said. He also included the cost of the fighter jets that shot down the Iranian drones.
According to the general, if Israel takes the initiative to attack, the cost will be much cheaper than the cost of defending itself. He told Ynet: “The cost we have to spend on defending ourselves is 10% higher than the cost Iran spends on attacking. In the future, that is, in one year, two years or five years, they can carry out 50 such attacks.”
The Israeli military claims that 99% of more than 300 drones and missiles launched from Iranian territory were successfully intercepted.
All drones and cruise missiles were shot down, with only a few ballistic missiles penetrating Israel's defenses.
The ballistic missiles landed at Nevatim Air Base, causing only minor damage to infrastructure. The drones launched by pro-Iranian militants in Iraq and Yemen did not reach Israeli territory.
Iran's attack on April 13 was in response to an airstrike on its embassy in Syria on April 1 that killed seven Iranian military officers, including two senior commanders. Iran blamed Israel for the attack and vowed to retaliate.
Following Iran's retaliation, on April 14, the Israeli military said it remained on high alert and had approved attack and defense plans.
On the same day, Israel's war cabinet met to discuss Iran's attack on the country. However, the plan to retaliate against Iran has caused division within the Israeli cabinet. Most ministers approved the counterattack, but internal disagreements remain regarding the timing and scale of the retaliation. Israel's war cabinet is expected to continue discussions on the issue.
