The Israeli army refuses to stop the war on Iran before the pressure begins.

The Israeli military refuses to halt the war on Iran, and the Israeli General Staff believes that "the conditions are not yet ripe for a ceasefire, and that the achievements must be exhausted before the pressure begins," Yedioth Ahronoth reported Tuesday.

According to the Israeli military, Iran's demands for a ceasefire are "a significant development that demonstrates the severity of the damage inflicted on Iran." The newspaper quoted an officer in the Israeli General Staff as saying, "A ceasefire must be agreed upon under Israeli conditions that have not yet been finalized, although their implementation is not far off."

The Israeli officer added, "We will bring the best possible achievement against Iran to the political level, and they must translate it and bring the best agreement we can live with. They (the Iranians) are without the facility in Natanz and the scientists, and we targeted the facility in Isfahan. The military leadership was eliminated, as was a large portion of the missile launchers. Future capabilities for manufacturing missile launchers were eliminated. Iran is completely naked, and we have complete freedom of action. These are unprecedented achievements."

Israeli military sources say that "there are still Iranian military targets related to the nuclear and missile programs. These targets can be struck solely by an Israeli attack, without American involvement," according to the newspaper.

The sources added that the Iranians have transferred air defense systems to Tehran to target Israeli warplanes flying over Tehran.

The Israeli military estimates that Iran still possesses "extensive missile launch capabilities capable of inflicting significant damage" on Israel.

The newspaper quoted an officer in the Israeli General Staff as saying, "Anyone who thinks it is possible to eliminate the Iranian nuclear and missile capabilities without paying a price is mistaken." He claimed, "If we do not agree to pay a price now, we will face these existential threats in a year or two, and then we will not be able to live here. There is enormous damage, and we need time to remove the threat. There will be other difficult periods. This is a war for our very existence."

The Israeli military considers the primary challenge to be reducing ballistic missile launches against Israel, but it estimates this is "ahead of the operational timeline," and that "the immediate goal is to target the Iranian regime."

Senior Israeli officers say that "the scale of missile launches from Iran is small compared to pre-war estimates, following the targeting of the Revolutionary Guard's leadership hierarchy."

According to Israeli military data, Iran launched approximately 350 rockets at Israel in salvos of 30-6 rockets, most of which carried half-ton warheads. A third of Iran's missile launchers have been destroyed, while Israeli air force raids in Iran continue.

A senior officer in the Israeli Home Front Command said, "Twenty-four Israelis killed by 350 rockets fired from Iran is a low number, given the scenarios we had prepared. Most of the dead were not in safe rooms."
