Oct 15, 2024, 07:16 AM

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant have reached an agreement on the intensity and timing of a potential military response to Iran, following recent missile attacks. The decision, which also involves Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, was made during a series of security consultations. While a consensus has been established on the action plan, final approval from Israel's security cabinet is still required before implementation. This marks a significant development in Israel's approach to Iran, as it is reported to be one of the first instances where Israel has openly approved potential attacks on Iran. The situation remains fluid as the security cabinet deliberates on the proposed actions.
