Following the strike by the Israeli Air Force on Iran's South Pars gas field facilities, Israel anticipates more serious retaliatory measures from Iran.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that Israeli media outlets, citing official sources, have released information regarding the potential escalation. According to these sources, the strike on Iran's massive gas field has resulted in damage to approximately one-fifth of the country's gas processing capacity.
In response, it is not ruled out that Iran may launch strikes against energy infrastructure in Israel and potentially target facilities across the entire region. The South Pars field, located in the Persian Gulf, is the world's largest natural gas field, shared between Iran and Qatar, and serves as a critical pillar of Iran's energy economy and domestic supply.
The heightened tensions come amid a period of significant regional instability. The South Pars field accounts for a substantial portion of Iran's natural gas production, and any prolonged disruption to its operations could have severe implications for the country's industrial sector and power generation. International observers remain concerned that a direct exchange of strikes between the two nations could further destabilize global energy markets and lead to a broader regional conflict.
