Iran Could Attack Israel Within 24 Hours, US Rushes Warships To Aid Ally
Tensions between Iran and Israel have been ongoing for many years and are rooted in various geopolitical, ideological, and religious factors.
Nuclear Program: One major point of contention is Iran’s nuclear program. Israel, along with some Western countries, has expressed concerns that Iran’s nuclear activities could lead to the development of nuclear weapons, posing a threat to regional stability.
Israel is bracing for a direct attack by Iran as warnings grow of retaliation for the killing last week of a senior officer in Iran’s embassy in Damascus. US and other intelligence assessments have said the retaliation could come as soon as Sunday. The unprecedented attack could trigger an all-out regional war.
US President Joe Biden has also warned Israel that he expects a strike from Iran soon, but has warned the clerical state not to attack.
“I don’t want to get into secure information but my expectation is sooner than later,” Biden told reporters after an event.
