"We are closely monitoring a planned attack by Iran and its proxies against the State of Israel. In recent days we have strengthened our defensive and offensive array and we are determined to take any measures required to defend the citizens of the State of Israel.
"We have added new capabilities - on land, in the air, at sea, in our intelligence directorate, within the State of Israel and together with our partners, led by the United States...We are determined to defend our citizens against this terrorism, and we will know how to respond to it."
