5:06Now PlayingLBC's US Correspondent, Simon Marks joins Tom Swarbrick to discuss the White House's warning of an 'imminent' Iranian attack on Israel, with the use of ballistic missiles.
“The United States has indications that Iran is preparing to imminently launch a ballistic missile attack against Israel. We are actively supporting defensive preparations to defend Israel against this attack. A direct military attack from Iran against Israel will carry severe consequences for Iran,” a senior White House official said in a statement.
Simon Marks discusses the 'rarity' of the revelation to have been made public by the White House, as well as the 'severe consequences' the attack would have.
Washington is understood to be supporting preparations for Israel to defend itself from attack.
This comes as the IDF released footage showing troops entering a Hezbollah tunnel network in southern Lebanon at some stage over the last 12 months.

The IDF said on Telegram that troops collected "valuable intelligence" and dismantled "advanced weaponry of Iranian origin".
