Iran is reportedly preparing to launch a ballistic missile strike on Israel, according to a senior U.S. official. The White House source, speaking anonymously, revealed on Tuesday that the U.S. has intelligence suggesting the missile attack is imminent.
In response, the U.S. is supporting Israel’s defensive measures to counter the potential threat. The official also issued a stark warning to Iran, indicating that any such aggression would result in “severe consequences.”
This development follows heightened tensions in the region, with Israeli forces conducting a ground operation in Lebanon earlier this week. The conflict has intensified after a series of airstrikes, resulting in numerous casualties.
