Israel’s Response Options to Iran’s Missile Attack

Following Iran’s missile attack involving over 180 ballistic missiles, Israel has vowed retaliation, possibly with the backing of the United States. Here are some strategies Israel might employ:

Targeting Military Installations

Analysts predict Israel might strike Iranian military sites, particularly those producing ballistic missiles similar to those used in the recent attack. Additionally, Israel may aim to disable Iranian air defences and missile launch sites. The United States has accused Tehran of providing ballistic missiles to Russia for use in Ukraine, a claim both deny. This response would directly address the immediate threat posed by Iran’s military capabilities.

Nuclear Facility Strikes

Another possible but riskier strategy could involve attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Such strikes could set back Tehran’s nuclear weapon development capabilities, as its program is dispersed across multiple sites, some underground. However, this action could push Iran to accelerate its nuclear weapons program. The United States has expressed its non-support for this course of action. Richard Hooker, a retired US Army officer and former National Security Council member, noted the complexity and risk of provoking Iran with such a strike.

Petroleum Industry Targets

Israel might also consider striking Iran’s petroleum infrastructure, directly impacting its economy. This action could escalate to Iran retaliating against oil facilities in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, potentially causing global oil prices to spike—a significant factor in the US political landscape, especially with upcoming presidential elections.

Economic and Cyber Warfare

Beyond military actions, Israel could opt for economic or cyber responses. President Joe Biden has indicated the possibility of imposing additional sanctions on Iran, adding to the extensive measures already in place that restrict trade and freeze Iranian assets in the US.

Israel’s prowess in cyber warfare, demonstrated in operations like the mass pager attack against Hezbollah, showcases another avenue of response. Israel’s Unit 8200, known for cyber intelligence, could be critical in such strategies.

Overall, Israel has multiple options for responding to Iran’s provocations, each with its own set of implications and potential escalations.
