Israel's military chief, Herzi Halevi, vows retaliation to Iran's recent attack, awaiting PM Netanyahu's decision. Iran warns of swift response, including unprecedented weaponry, to any Israeli strikes. The April 13 assault, Iran's first direct attack on Israel, follows Israel's alleged airstrike on Tehran's consulate in Damascus on April 1. Halevi asserts Israel's readiness for action, while Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister, Ali Bagheri Kan, emphasizes their rapid response capability.
