Tensions between Israel and Iran have reached a boiling point after missile and drone attack by Iran on Israeli territory. Israel's war cabinet has vowed a "clear, forceful" retaliation, stating Iran's aggression cannot go unanswered. Meanwhile, Iran has warned Israel of using "weapons never deployed before" if provoked, raising fears of a wider regional conflict. The US has urged restraint, with President Biden cautioning Israel against launching a counteroffensive. However, Israel maintains it has no choice but to respond to the unprecedented attack. As both sides refuse to back down, the Middle East braces for potential escalation.
