0:37Now PlayingIsrael is bracing for a direct and unprecedented attack by Iran on government targets as soon as Saturday, according to people familiar with western intelligence assessments, a move that has the potential to trigger an all-out regional war.
An assault from Iranian soil has emerged as one of the main scenarios expected by the Jewish state and its allies, said the people, who asked not to be identified as they aren’t authorized to discuss the matter publicly. A bombardment with drones and precision missiles could come within the next 48 hours, they said.
“I don’t want to get into secure information but my expectation is sooner rather than later,” President Joe Biden said Friday in response to a question about whether an Iranian strike was imminent. Asked what message he’d give to Iran, Biden responded, “Don’t.”
“We are devoted to the defense of Israel,” Biden said. “We will support Israel, we will defend, help defend, Israel and Iran will not succeed.”
