Iran launched a drone and missile attack into Israel Saturday night, but it appeared the Israeli defense, joined by American and British air support, destroyed the vast majority of the rocketry.

News reports suggested Iran might raise the ante to include higher-powered missiles, while the Israelis were said to be planning a counterattack. Iran said the attack constituted its response to Israel  bombing Iran’s diplomatic mission in Syria, but warned Israel and its allies that further attacks could occur if they broaden the conflict.

Both Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and American President Joe Biden issued statements.

Here, Breaking Points host Saagar Enjeti summarizes the fighting and discusses what it could mean for the future. Will this be a one-off event, or will it lead to a larger conflict involving more nations around the world? Could Iran’s allies, like the Houthis in Yemen and Hezbollah in Lebanon, join the fray? Time will tell.

(EDITOR’S NOTE: There were no reported casualties, but one Israeli military base, the Nevatim Air Base, southeast of occupied Gaza in the Negev Desert, was hit by 15 missiles early Sunday. Sources said the base was severely damaged and is now inoperable.)
