Israel prepares for Iran's attack

Report: Iran planning major combined attack on Israel through Iraqi territory

Khamenei says that the damage incurred by Saturday's attacks is too great to ignore, and that he will respond to the attack via his proxies, and not directly, hoping to prevent an Israeli counter-attack.

Initially, Iran announced it would not respond to the Israeli strike. However, the situation changed after Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei assessed the extensive damage caused by the Israeli attacks. He has reportedly ordered his military to prepare for an attack against Israel, which will be executed through Iranian-backed militias in Iraq.

His reason for using the militias is to avoid direct retaliation on Iranian soil.

The New York Times has revealed new details about Israel's assessment of the potential Iranian strike.

According to the report, Israeli officials anticipate a combined attack involving hundreds of drones and ballistic missiles, with operations being conducted through pro-Iranian militias in the region.

Iranian military officials have already prepared a list of dozens of potential military targets in Israel, some of which were  included in Iran's two earlier attacks against Israel.

Israeli officials have made it clear that the origin point of any attack is irrelevant to their response and that any attack will be treated as if riginated in Iran and responded to in kind.

Israel's security establishment continues to monitor the situation closely and the airforce and army are on high alert as they await the attack.
