Iran prepares to attack Israel. This time, Tehran warned of a direct attack on Israel. Not only that, the Iranian government has also sent a message to America, Israel’s friend, to stay away from this conflict.
A few days ago, the Israeli military was accused of attacking the Iranian embassy in Damascus, Syria. The missile attack killed seven people, including two generals of the Iranian military. An angry Iran immediately warned Israel to ‘retaliate’. This time, Mohammad Jamshidi, deputy chief of staff for political affairs of Iran’s President Ibrahim Raoisi, claimed that a message has been sent to Washington on their behalf. Where it is said, they are preparing to give an appropriate response to Israel. And Washington should stay away from all this to avoid attacks on its own institutions. Jamshidi also claimed on social media that the Joe Biden administration has requested them not to attack American soldiers or citizens. In a message to America, Iran said, “Don’t get involved in Netanyahu’s trap.”
The White House did not spend a word on Iran’s written message and its response. However, an official of the Biden administration told several American media that Biden called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after learning about the possible attack by Iran. The message of America’s support to the people of Israel is also given. The American official also said that although Tehran is not afraid of a direct nuclear attack, Washington is ready and alert in all aspects. Israel has also raised the alarm. The leave of all army personnel has already been cancelled. Strict surveillance is going on. The Biden administration fears that Iran is going to target Israel’s various military bases and intelligence forces, excluding ordinary people.
Israel has attacked dozens of Iranian bases in Syria since the start of an anti-Hamas operation by Israeli forces in the Gaza Strip in October last year. However, Israel did not launch a diplomatic attack against Iran until last Tuesday’s attack in Damascus. America claims that they told Iran that their country’s intelligence could not predict the news of the attack on the embassy in Damascus.
The US and its allies have consistently pointed the finger at Iran for supporting the Lebanese Hezbollah group in various terrorist activities. Hassan Nasrallah, head of Hizbullah, also opened his mouth regarding the possible attack on Israel. This Hezbollah leader lives behind the public eye. In a message, he said, after the Iranian attack on Israel, the political picture of the entire region will change.
In the meantime, various American media have claimed that America is trying to get Hamas to agree to a peace agreement with the Netanyahu government soon. Many Israelis are still held captive by Hamas forces in Palestine. Several American citizens are also on the prisoner list. Washington has requested Qatar and Egypt on the matter. President Biden wrote to the President of Egypt and the Emir of Qatar. America is hoping that a favorable decision on the release of the prisoners can be made this weekend. Representatives of the US, Qatar and Egypt are set to meet this weekend in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, to discuss the sanctions deal.
