Israel has placed its defence and security forces on 'peak alert' as reports suggest Iran could be set to launch its anticipated assault on the country within 24 hours.
Israel is bracing for"a significant set of attacks" as Iran presses ahead with plans to launch a direct assault despite international pleas for calm and restraint. Israel has placed its defence and security forces on"peak alert" as reports suggest Iran could be set to launch its anticipated assault on the country within 24 hours.
Israel has also stepped up its own preparations, with the Israeli Defence Forces moving to their"highest level" of alert and increasing air force patrols to give as much advanced warning as possible of any attack. Reports in US outlets have cited different timelines, with some suggesting an attack could come within the next 24 hours while others report an assault is still several days off.
