Hello, Prestige Heads and welcome to American Prestige.

I'm Danny Bessner, here as always with my friend and comrade, Derek Davison, and we're here to give you a special update on Israel's attack on Iran.

Derek, I guess the first thing to do is what do we know,

what are the brass attacks here? So early morning Saturday in Tehran, so around 215, I think

most outlets are saying now there were reports of explosions. The Israeli military then issued a

statement saying that it was striking military targets in Iran. This is in response, of course,

to the Iranian missile attack on Israel earlier this month, which was in

response to the assassination of Ismail Hania in Tehran before that, and we can go on and on back to

the beginning of time, really. But most immediately, of course, this cycle is about the Iranian attack earlier this month, and this is the response to that.

The attack continued for a couple of hours, maybe as long as three, three and a half hours by six a.m., I think local time. The Israelis were issuing statements that they were done,

and the Iranian media was already covering the attack, dismissing what had happened as, you know, kind of ineffectual.

So what we know in terms of what the Israelis actually did,

this was a three-wave strike.

The first wave, according to the Israelis,

targeted Iranian air defenses.

The second and third waves is targeted, basically missile

manufacturing facilities, so the places where the Iranians would have assembled the ballistic

missiles that they used earlier this month, other military facilities, possibly drone facilities, they refer to it as weapons production sites,

so possibly, you know, with something to do with Iran's drone program. The effect is still

hard to piece out and given the media environment we we may never really know

but as i say the iranians have dismissed the strikes for the most part as having been ineffectual

they have said that four i believe is the latest word initially it was two but four now soldiers
