In a sudden and concerning development, Israeli officials, as reported by local media, have issued a warning about potential Iranian retaliatory actions in response to the recent attack in Damascus againt IRGC. These actions of Iran could potentially take place tomorrow, coinciding with the last Friday of Ramadan, known as “Jerusalem Day,” or over the coming weekend.
According to reports, Israel is gearing up for possible large-scale attacks from Iran, which might include long-range ballistic missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and cruise missiles. These threats have become a focal point of recent discussions between defense ministers of the United States and Israel.
Speculation about Iran’s next move is based on information from the Israeli news outlet Walla citing unnamed officials, suggesting a significant strategic shift. Iran, traditionally acting against Israel through proxy forces in the region, might directly launch attacks from its territory.
In anticipation of potential threats, the Israeli Ministry of Health has proactively convened a meeting with hospital directors. The aim is to ensure that all medical facilities are sufficiently staffed and prepared to handle any emergencies that may arise over the weekend.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have heightened their state of readiness in response to the looming threats. Measures include enhancing air defense capabilities and putting a halt to all leave for combat units to ensure maximum preparedness. An IDF spokesperson highlighted the complete mobilization of forces along Israel’s borders, prepared to confront “any possible scenario.”
In a recent statement, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared Israel’s resolve to face down any attempts to harm the nation. This strong stance comes amid increasing tension in the region.
On the other side, an Iranian official communicated to Reuters Tehran’s determination to respond decisively to Israel. The intention is to deter future Israeli strikes while striving to prevent a full-scale conflict.
It’s also been disclosed today that the IDF is implementing GPS signal jamming as a preventive measure against possible Iranian attacks. However, it’s crucial to note that these reports remain unconfirmed and are primarily based on Israeli media publications.
