The United States is preparing for a major Iranian attack on US or Israeli assets in the region as early as next week.
The US is on high alert and actively preparing for a major attack by Iran as early as next week, targeting Israeli or US targets in the region. In addition, senior US officials and Israeli counterparts now believe that an Iranian attack is imminent.
A potential attack could be in response to an Israeli strike on the Iranian consulate building in Damascus on Monday, which destroyed the entire building, killing and injuring everyone inside, including seven military advisers of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
Earlier, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani said on Monday night that the Islamic Republic of Iran is deciding for itself what the response will be.
The impending Iranian attack was the main topic of a telephone conversation between US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday.
