Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has warned Iran of a severe response if it attacks Israel. Speaking in the Knesset, he said Israel would act with a force Iran had not experienced before. Netanyahu said Israel was closely monitoring Iran after nationwide protests and a deadly crackdown. His remarks came amid reports that the United States is moving the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group toward the Middle East. Tensions between Washington and Tehran remain high over Iran’s handling of protests. Activists say thousands have been killed and many detained. Iran has not responded to Netanyahu’s latest warning.
