Implications of Iran's Direct Attack on Israel

Iran's direct attack on Israel using drones and missiles has significant repercussions. The attack was a response to a previous Israeli strike in Syria. The challenge lies in avoiding escalation into full-fledged war, especially considering Netanyahu's low bar for retaliation.
