Israel anticipates direct attack from Iran; U.S. deploys more vessels to region​

A U.S. Navy submarine and several destroyers have been sent as concerns grow in the region about a potential Iranian attack on Israel.
Speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive security matters, an Israeli official, citing conversations with security officials, said Monday that the country’s updated assessments indicate that Iran has decided to directly attack Israel in response.
On Sunday, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered the guided-missile submarine USS Georgia to the Middle East and told the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier strike group to speed up its voyage to the region.

The U.S. deployment was announced by the Defense Department after talks between Austin and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The pair discussed efforts to “deter aggression” by Iran and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, according to a readout of the call.

(Kevin Lamarque/Reuters) Israel has communicated to Iran and Hezbollah that targeting civilian population centers would be considered a red line for Israel, which is preparing for a spectrum of scenarios, including one in which Hezbollah attacks first and is joined by Iran afterward, said Yoel Guzansky, a former official on Israel’s National Security Council who is now a senior fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv.
 

Khamenei warns Israel, US of ‘crushing response’ for actions against Iran​

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has warned Israel and the United States of “a crushing response” for actions against Iran and its allies, according to state media.

Khamenei, 85, made the remarks on Saturday while addressing students ahead of the anniversary of the 1979 takeover of the US embassy in Tehran by hardline students – which cemented the decades-long enmity between Tehran and Washington that persists today.
“The enemies, whether the Zionist regime or the United States of America, will definitely receive a crushing response to what they are doing to Iran and the Iranian nation and to the resistance front,” Khamenei said in the capital, Tehran, also referring to Iran-aligned armed groups that include Yemen’s Houthis, Lebanon’s Hezbollah and the Palestinian Hamas.
The supreme leader did not elaborate on the timing of any attack, or the scope.

IAF Tweeted:
The Lebanese person captured by Israeli naval commandos in northern Lebanon yesterday was Hezbollah official Imad Amhaz, the Saudi news outlet Al-Hadath reports.

More than 25 soldiers arrived on the coast of Batroun, south of Tripoli, and raided a chalet near the beach. One Lebanese person, who was alone, was taken from the area, and the special forces left the area via speedboats, the report says.

Illaik shares surveillance camera footage purportedly from the incident. It shows a group of soldiers taking a detained person with them.

The journalist says Lebanese security officials are investigating the incident..

Israel Home Front Command:
The IDF Home Front Command says it is easing restrictions in several areas in northern Israel, following a fresh assessment.

The changes come despite repeated Hezbollah rocket and drone attacks.

As part of the changes, the Home Front Command has adjusted the activity scale in the Lower Galilee and southern Golan Heights, from "partial activity" to "full activity."

The changes there mean that gatherings are permitted up to 2,000 people.

There are no changes to other areas in the country..

The administration of US President Joe Biden has warned Iran against a new attack on Israel, saying that it will not be able to prevent the Israeli side from a devastating response.

this was reported by the American information site axios with reference to an American official and a former Israeli official.

"We told the Iranians: we will not be able to deter Israel and we will not be able to be sure that the next attack will be as well-calibrated and well-targeted as the previous one," the American interlocutor of the publication noted.

According to him, the message was sent directly to the Iranian side. This is a non-standard situation, as usually information about such direct contacts is not disclosed, stated.

Two B-52's Strategic Bombers landed a few minutes ago in Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar 🇶🇦 (It means @MofaQatar_EN allows the US to use its territory to threaten a Nuclear strike on Iran)

The F-16's are arriving now, reportedly landing in Bahrain 🇧🇭 (BLUE61/BLUE71).

STAFF EDIT FOR CONTEXT: While B-52s are nuclear-capable, they usually carry conventional payloads. Deployment does not really mean the US is threatening a nuclear strike on Iran.
