Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared Sunday that Israel stands ready to defend itself against any enemy attack. There is also the possibility that the Israel Defense Forces will go on the offensive.
Netanyahu sees the situation as a seven-front war where Iran and its proxies are trying to strangle the Jewish state.
“Their visible aggression is insatiable, but Israel is not helpless,” Netanyahu said. “We are determined to stand against them on every front, in every arena, far and near. Anyone who murders our citizens, anyone who harms our country, will be held accountable. He will pay a very heavy price.”

Some anticipate Iran will launch a bigger attack than April 13, when some 350 missiles and drones rained down across Israel, resulting in only minor damage.
The Alma Research Center in northern Israel estimates a combination of “ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and UAVs from many sites in western Iran” could be launched.
U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has dispatched a fighter squadron to the Middle East, and the head of the Central Command, General Michael Kurilla, is already in the region.
Retired IDF General Amir Avivi tells CBN News Kurilla is expected to play a valuable role in helping coordinate a similar coalition effort that protected Israel in April.
“It enables to really assist Israel to deal with all the different threats – whether it’s ballistic missiles, a UAV, and any other capability Iran might shoot at Israel or Hezbollah – and it increases dramatically the chances of really being able to secure Israel in the best way possible,” Avivi explained.
He added, “There is no 100%, but it definitely improves a lot – the chances of really dealing very well with most of the capabilities Iran and Hezbollah have.”
