Iran plans to attack Israel. Israel’s stance comes in the context of the US warning that Iran will attack Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has now called the Security Cabinet and discussed how to prevent Iran.
If we get solid proof that it is preparing to attack and we confirm it without loopholes, then Iran will be attacked at that moment. Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant said that Israel’s attack will reach Iran’s soil before Iran’s attack reaches Israel.
Israel’s Prime Minister also announced that he would attack Iran, and Israeli media reported that Israel would consider a pre-emptive strike to deter Iran if it found evidence that Tehran was preparing to attack. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. attended the Security Council meeting. Israel was able to eliminate Herzi Halevi and Mossad head David Barnia.
Israel does not expect peace from Iran and its proxies. Therefore, it is assessed that Israel has no other option but to counterattack. But Israel will not unilaterally attack Iran unless Iran attacks Israel or initiates an attack. Israel will not start any war alone. “We will only fight those who attack Israel,” Benjamin Netanyahu says after a security meeting where he discusses a wide range of options on how best to respond to or prevent an attack.
Channel 12 reported that during the meeting with Netanyahu, the option of attacking Iran as a countermeasure was discussed. Security officials stressed that such a move would only be approved if Israel received accurate intelligence confirming that Tehran was about to launch an attack of its own. But Israel has not yet confirmed a missile attack or warplane attack on Iran, and it is not clear whether a drone attack would be possible as it is about 2,600 kilometers away. Perhaps the possibility of drone strikes from the sea cannot be ruled out.
Meanwhile, another Israeli airstrike in Lebanon. Hizbullah operatives were killed in an Israeli airstrike in Mays Al-Jabal in southern Lebanon. The Israel Defense Forces noticed several drones from Lebanon entering Israel at around 2 am. Then they launched interceptor missiles and destroyed all the drones from Lebanon.
Meanwhile, Israel has yet to find out where Hamas has hidden the hostages. Hamas has released hostages from Gaza. It is believed to be in Lebanon or Yemen. The US is still discussing the possibility of a ceasefire as a way to pressure Hamas to release all hostages. American President Biden is making a move to end the Israeli war before the American election if that happens, Biden also believes that Kamala Harris will win the election.
