Israel is preparing a significant response to Iran's recent missile attack, which involved 180 ballistic missiles targeting civilian and military areas across the country. Israeli officials confirmed no critical infrastructure was hit but stressed that their forthcoming response would be "serious and significant." The United States has expressed concern, with President Biden advising against striking Iranian oil facilities. Israel has not ruled out targeting Iran's nuclear sites, heightening regional tensions. Iran, in turn, has threatened to attack Israeli power plants and oil refineries if retaliated against. Israeli retaliation is anticipated, but the timing remains unclear.
