US warns of Iranian preparations for ballistic missile attack on Israel


‘We are at peak readiness in attack and defense,’ an IDF spokesman said.

Iran is preparing to “imminently” launch a ballistic missile attack on Israel, according to a senior White House official.

“The United States has indications that Iran is preparing to imminently launch a ballistic missile attack against Israel,” the official said in an email to The Epoch Times.

“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.”

Israeli forces had reported launching cross-border ground raids into Lebanon in the early morning hours of Tuesday.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported it remains on high alert for incoming threats but indicated it is not aware of any specific Iranian attack.

“At this stage, we do not recognize an air threat from Iran,” IDF spokesman Brig. Gen. Daniel Hagari said on Tuesday.
