Israel is reportedly planning a significant response to last night’s Iranian missile attack, although the details and timing are yet to be determined.
According to the Axios news site, citing unnamed Israeli officials, one of the likely targets is Iranian oil facilities, but an attack on Iran’s air defense system is also a possibility, as are targeted assassinations of senior figures.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said last night that “Iran made a big mistake tonight and it will pay for it,” while President Joe Biden said the US is working with Israel to formulate its response.
