Iran has launched ballistic missiles at Israel, the Israel Defense Forces said Tuesday.
U.S. officials warned that Iran was preparing a ballistic missile strike targeting Israel, a senior White House official told Fwrd Axis News Tuesday.
“The United States has indications that Iran is preparing to imminently launch a ballistic missile attack against Israel,” the White House official said. “We are actively supporting defensive preparations to defend Israel against this attack. A direct military attack from Iran against Israel will carry severe consequences for Iran.”
The attack comes after Israel launched multiple attacks in Lebanon, including killing Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah and a ground invasion of the country.
“Let us be clear, Iran is not only a threat to Israel, Iran is also a threat to American personnel in the region, American interests and innocent civilians across the region who suffer at the hands of Iran based and backed terrorist proxies,” Vice President Kamala Harris said.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel will retaliate for Iran’s attack.
“Iran made a big mistake tonight — and it will pay for it,” Netanyahu said tonight. “The regime in Iran does not understand our determination to defend ourselves and our determination to retaliate against our enemies.”
The Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corp said they targeted three military bases around Tel Aviv in their attack on Israel today.
