Israel is prepared for Iran to carry out a “direct attack” against the Jewish state in the next 24-48 hours, the Wall Street Journal stated in an exclusive report on Thursday evening.
The IDF and Mossad have approved a plan for a counterattack against Iran if an attack takes place, Ynet reported on Friday, adding that Israel’s cooperation with the US military has tightened in the past day.
According to the WSJ report, Israel is preparing for a “direct attack” on Israel’s north or south. The US Embassy in Israel on Thursday warned US employees and their family members not to leave the areas of Jerusalem, the greater Tel Aviv area, and Be’er Sheva until further notice.
“Out of an abundance of caution, US government employees and their family members are restricted from personal travel outside the greater Tel Aviv (including Herzliya, Netanya and Even Yehuda), Jerusalem, and Beersheba areas until further notice,” the US embassy stated. “US government personnel are authorized to transit between these three areas for personal travel.”
Channel 14 News reported that according to Israeli intelligence, the first phase of an Iranian attack would be carried out via dozens of missile launches from Iran and its proxies in Iraq and Yemen.
However, the WSJ report stated that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has not made a final decision on an attack yet, fearing that a direct attack on Israel will lead to a massive Israeli counterattack on Iranian infrastructure.
Israeli forces across Israel are at their highest level of readiness, with some saying that the danger Israel faces is at a level not seen since the Yom Kippur War in 1973.
In the past day, the IDF’s Home Front Command ordered the heads of local authorities across Israel to prepare for the possibility of an Iranian attack, Kan News reported on Thursday evening. The authorities were instructed to prepare quietly, without creating a public panic.
The Home Front Command has instructed the Israeli public that at this stage, there are no changes in instructions for civilians.

They asked for it,
lets just pray that Hashem protects all Jews.
You bomb a consulate and what do you think?
DON’T AGITATE A HUNGRY LION…
So what the Anti-Torah leftist A-G do in such a dangerous situation? Causing more strive; causing more hatred!
המאמר הזה נאמרה על ידי רבותינו התנאים לפני כאלף וחמש מאות שנה, והובאה בספר ילקוט שמעוני (ישעיהו רמז תצט): “אמר רבי יצחק שנה שמלך המשיח נגלה בו כל מלכי אומות העולם מתגרים זה בזה, מלך פרס מתגרה במלך ערבי והולך מלך ערבי לארם ליטול עצה מהם וחוזר מלך פרס ומחריב את כל העולם וכל אומות העולם מתרעשים ומתבהלים ונופלים על פניהם ויאחוז אותם צירים כצירי יולדה, וישראל מתרעשים ומתבהלים ואומר להיכן נבוא ונלך להיכן נבוא ונלך, ואומר להם בני אל תתיראו כל מה שעשיתי לא עשיתי אלא בשבילכם מפני מה אתם מתיראים אל תיראו הגיע זמן גאולתכם”.
Prepare to expect Iran to give a call in advance to launch a missile into a field and then declare victory just when the US does it to them. A bunch of posturing.
Can someone explain to me why there isn’t a call for massive tefilah right NOW.
Is Pesach cleaning more important or are we complacent c”v?
The authorities were instructed to prepare quietly, without creating a public panic.
And what do these YWN articles do? Is this called “quiet”?
“Israel is prepared for Iran to carry out a “direct attack” against the Jewish state in the next 24-48 hours, the Wall Street Journal stated in an exclusive report on Thursday evening.”
There is no “Jewish state [sic]”. That State is Zionist (or Israeli), not Jewish.
pure yiddishkeit:
The Zionists are masters at hisgarus baUmos. Always have been.
Everyone should reach out to one person they know is suffering. Comfort others and you will be comforted
ccb45:
A massive denouncement of Zionism as the idolatry and heresy that it is might be far more effective than being tovel viSheretz biYado. Or not. But a good idea regardless.
the “Jewish” state is not jewish at all, they just reiterated that fact by trying to draft bnei Torah forcefully
