JAKARTA - Israel's plan to retaliate against Iran's attacks on October 1 is ready.

This was conveyed by a source to CNN, Wednesday, October 16. Meanwhile, the Israeli Ministry of Defense has not commented.

Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have assured the US retaliatory attacks on Iran would be limited to military targets and not to oil or nuclear facilities, according to sources.

"Iran made a big mistake tonight and they will pay for it," Prime Minister Netanyahu said after the Iranian missile strike in early October.

Previously 200 missiles were fired during Iran's attack on Israel, according to the Commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The Iranian missile attack took place about an hour on Tuesday, October 1.

The Israeli military said its initial estimate was that Iran fired about 180 projectiles. Statements from the IRGC, reported by Press TV, said 90 percent of the missiles managed to reach their targets.

But both Israel and America underestimated the effectiveness of the attack. Israel said the attack failed.
