TEL AVIV, Israel: The Israeli intelligence community believes that Iran is preparing to launch a direct attack on Israel within the coming days.
This anticipated strike is seen as a retaliation for the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran in late July.
According to sources cited by Axios reporter Barak Ravid, Iran’s decision to escalate comes in response to this targeted killing.
While Israel has neither confirmed nor denied responsibility for the assassination, the situation has heightened tensions in the region, raising concerns about an imminent conflict.
