Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant hinted on Tuesday that his country had retaliated in Iraq, Yemen, and Iran for attacks carried out against it as the war with Hamas-led Palestinian terrorists in the Gaza Strip widens to other areas of the region.

“We are in a multi-front war and are coming under attack from seven theaters: Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Judea and Samaria [West Bank], Iraq, Yemen, and Iran. We have already responded and taken action in six of these theaters,” he told lawmakers.

Since Gaza hostilities erupted with a cross-border Hamas rampage on Oct 7, the Israeli military has said it responded to knock-on attacks from Lebanon and Syria, and carried out raids on Palestinian terrorists in the West Bank.

It has not published such actions in Yemen, whose Iran-aligned Houthis have carried out long-range missile and drone launches at Israel and attacked shipping in the Red Sea, nor in Iraq, where a pro-Iran militia said last week it had fired a drone at the southern Israeli port city of Eilat.

Nor has Israel published any operations within Iran, its arch-enemy and a sponsor of Hamas and Lebanon’s Hezbollah terror group
