In retaliation against America, Iran has targeted an important American radar system in Qatar. This radar is the AN/FPS-132 ballistic missile early warning radar of the US Space Force. On the basis of satellite images, it is being claimed that this system has suffered huge damage in the attack. The price of this radar is said to be around 1.1 billion dollars i.e. around Rs 9,000 crore. It is one of America’s most important radar systems in the Middle East.

The job of this radar is to quickly detect ballistic missiles coming from a distance and to provide information about their direction, speed and possible target. Its detection range is about 5,000 kilometers. It was installed in 2013 near Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar. Al Udeid Air Base is America’s largest military base in the Middle East. This radar provides warning to America and its allies before missile attacks, so that defense systems like Patriot or THAAD can be activated on time.

What name did IRGC give to the operation?

According to Iranian media reports, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has described this attack as part of the ‘True Promise 4’ operation. This attack was carried out in response to the recent American and Israeli attacks on Iran. Iran used ballistic missiles and drones. Qatar’s Defense Ministry said most of the missiles and drones were intercepted, but some fell near the Al Udeid base.

Some reports say that a drone directly targeted the radar site. Iranian media claims that the radar was completely destroyed. However, America and Qatar have not yet officially shared complete information about the loss. Qatar did admit that the attack caused some damage and eight people were injured.

Drones will cause damage to expensive defense systems

If this radar does not work for a long time, the missile warning capability of America and its allies in the region may become weak. Reducing warning time may increase security risks. This incident also shows that low-cost drones can cause damage to expensive defense systems. After this attack, America may need to further strengthen its defense system. There is also a possibility of further increase in tension in the area.

Amidst increasing tensions between US and Iran, Iranian officials have accused America of promoting global conflicts. He says that America creates instability in the world to maintain its power. Iran’s special representative to India, Abdul Majeed Hakim Elahi, while talking to news agency ANI, said that one of the objectives of the ongoing conflict with Iran is to stop emerging powers like India and China from moving forward.

America will not allow any country to become equal: Ilahi

Abdul Majeed Hakim Ilahi said that in the coming time, India, China, Russia and America will be the biggest powers in the world, but America does not want any other country to become as powerful as it. According to him, this is why America promotes such wars so that it can maintain its global hold.

Ilahi also said that the war was started by America and Israel, not Iran. He said that Iran is taking action in its own defense. He said that America and Israel are attacking Iran and bombing civilian areas, while Iran is only protecting itself.

False news is being spread against Iran

Abdul Majeed Hakim Ilahi said that if America stops the war, Iran will also stop its actions. The Iranian representative also claimed that Iran is currently fighting two types of wars. The first is a military war, which is against America and Israel. The second is narrative war i.e. war of information and propaganda. They allege that false news is being spread against Iran in this second war.

Elahi said that it is being claimed that the people of Iran want regime change, whereas according to him this is not true. This statement of Ilahi has come at a time when the situation in the region remains tense and concern about this conflict is increasing at the international level.
