"If the Israeli regime cannot intercept missiles in the highly fortified area of Dimona, it is operationally a sign of entering a new phase of battle; the sky of Israel is defenseless," Qalibaf said in a post on his X account.

“As a result, it seems that the time has come to implement the next pre-designed plans," the Iranian Parliament speaker added.

The US and the Israeli regime launched a large-scale unprovoked military campaign against Iran following the assassination of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, along with several senior military commanders and civilians on February 28.

The attacks have involved extensive aerial strikes on both military and civilian locations across Iran, causing significant casualties and widespread damage to infrastructure.

In response, the Iranian Armed Forces have carried out retaliatory operations, targeting American and Israeli positions in the occupied territories and at regional bases with waves of missiles and drones.
