As tensions rise, Israel is contemplating a preemptive strike against Iran to thwart a potential attack, Axios reports. This decision comes amid heightened conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, which has been exchanging fire daily. The situation escalated after Israel’s assassination of Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr and Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has warned G7 nations of possible imminent attacks. Meanwhile, Israel's top officials, including Prime Minister Netanyahu, are deliberating with security agencies on the potential preemptive measures to safeguard against Iranian aggression.
