In light of escalating tensions, Israel's military leadership, led by IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, has approved comprehensive battle plans to prepare for a potential multi-front attack from Iran and its allies, notably Hezbollah. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant emphasized the importance of vigilance and readiness, stating that Israel has bolstered its defenses and is prepared for both defensive and offensive actions. This strategic meeting comes just before Tisha B’Av, a significant day in the Jewish calendar, which has heightened speculation regarding the timing of Iran's promised retaliation for the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. Reports suggest that the Iranian armed forces are actively preparing for an imminent attack, potentially within 24 hours, which could escalate into a broader conflict involving multiple fronts. The IDF has issued directives to ensure the highest level of readiness amid these developments, reflecting the seriousness of the threats posed by Iran and its proxies.
