Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said on Wednesday that Israel’s retaliation against Iran for last week’s missile barrage will be “deadly, precise and surprising”.
“Our attack in Iran will be deadly, precise and surprising,” Gallant said in a statement posted on social media, adding: “Those who try to harm the State of Israel will pay a price.”
Mwanwhile, the United States has asked Israel to avoid conducting military operations in Lebanon like it has in Gaza.
Briefing journalists on Wednesday, the State Department spokesman, Matthew Miller, expressed concern over the humanitarian situation in the war-ravaged Palestinian territory.
“I’m making very clear that there should be no kind of military action in Lebanon that looks anything like Gaza and leaves a result anything like Gaza,” he said.
