Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has publicly celebrated Iran's recent barrage of ballistic missiles against Israel, declaring that Israel is now "finally getting a taste of its own medicine."
According to reports, Iran launched hundreds of various ballistic missiles toward Israel overnight, resulting in 10 Israeli fatalities and approximately 200 injuries. Dozens of people remain missing following the attack.
Fani-Kayode took to his X handle on Sunday to share video footage showing the damage caused by Iranian missiles in Israel. "Israel finally getting a taste of its own medicine courtesy Iran. What a sight!" he wrote, expressing apparent satisfaction with the attack.
Escalating Middle East Tensions
This latest development comes after Israeli military forces carried out multiple airstrikes on Iran, reportedly killing senior military officials and damaging nuclear sites in the country.
The exchange of attacks has heightened fears of a wider regional conflict, with Israel warning that "Tehran will burn" if Iran continues its missile strikes. Meanwhile, former US President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Iran, threatening to hit the country "at levels never seen before."
The Nigerian government has condemned the hostilities between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the State of Israel, while Pope Leo has appealed for both nations to act with "reason."
As tensions continue to escalate, international observers remain concerned about the potential for further military action and the impact on regional stability.
