As tensions continue to rise in the Middle East, the US government is taking steps to prepare for a potential conflict with Iran amid looming threats of attacks on Israel. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby has warned that Iran could launch a significant set of attacks as early as this week, prompting the US military to increase its force posture and capabilities in the region.
Israeli experts believe that Iran is carefully weighing its options following the recent assassinations of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders. Despite threats of retaliation, no attacks have materialized yet, leaving Israelis on edge and the region on high alert for a possible escalation of violence. Iran's goal of achieving hegemony and establishing a regional Shiite caliphate puts Israel in direct opposition, setting the stage for potential conflict.
The White House is bracing for a potential Iranian attack on Israel within days, according to White House national security spokesman John Kirby. President Joe Biden has been in talks with European allies to discuss support for Israel as tensions continue to escalate. The US has increased its military presence in the region, with the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group being deployed to the Middle East to show support for Israel and deter potential attacks.
With the threat of conflict looming and the possibility of attacks on Israel growing, the situation in the Middle East remains volatile. As Iran and its proxies consider their next moves, the international community watches closely, hoping to prevent further escalation and violence in the region.
