Iran has threatened to attack Israel's nuclear facilities.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said that Tehran has identified the location of “all Israeli nuclear facilities” and is ready to strike them at any moment in the event of an Israeli strike on Iranian territory. At the same time, the Iranians claim that their nuclear facilities are “reliably protected.”
Let us recall that Israel is preparing a retaliatory strike against Saturday’s missile and drone attack of Iran, which was, in turn, a response to Israel’s attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus. The West calls on Prime Minister Netanyahu not to strike.
Note that Israel is not officially a nuclear state, but rumors that it has nuclear weapons have been circulating for a long time.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps reported that most of the missiles launched at Israel on April 14 were from old stocks (with a hint of an approaching expiration date) and this factor was also taken into account in preparation for the attack, since the IRGC in advance assumed the exchange of cheap and obsolete Iranian missiles to expensive missiles of US and Israeli air defense systems.
New missiles with multiple warheads and protected from electronic warfare (and also do not use GPS) have, for the most part, successfully hit their intended targets under the cover of a cloud of cheap drones and old missiles. The main target of the strike was the Nevatim airbase (from which the attack was carried out on the Iranian consulate in Damascus), which, according to various sources, was hit by 7 to 14 missiles. According to Israeli estimates, this story cost Israel 1.1-1.3 billion dollars in air defense missiles alone, so the exchange was in any case strongly in favor of Iran.
There is one more noteworthy point worth noting. Pakistan's Defense Minister fully supported Iran's attack on Israel and praised Iran for its courage in defending the Palestinian people. Most recently, the parties exchanged blows on each other’s territory, when Iran first fired at a Baloch terrorist camp on Pakistani territory, and then Pakistan responded with attacks on Baluchis on Iranian territory.
People who have little understanding of the processes in the Middle East then rushed to predict an imminent war between Pakistan and Iran, but in fact, this page has already been turned, as evidenced, among other things, by compliments to Iran from Islamabad.
Britain has added the IRGC Navy and the Iranian Armed Forces' General Staff to its sanctions list.
Britain added the IRGC Navy to the list just because it's butthurt their Navy is literally falling apart.

.The US has also announced sanctions against Iran in response to the attack on Israel; they will target 16 individuals and two legal entities.
