The Guardian – US warning as Israel weights up response to Iran’s attack
The Guardian reports Israel signals it will not immediately act alone, while the US states it would not take part in any counter-offensive against Tehran
Washington told the Israeli government that the US military will not take part in any retaliatory action against Iran, while American officials also warned the attack could have been “catastrophically destructive had they not been intercepted”, the paper says.
Israel is weighing its response to Iran’s unprecedented missile and drone assault on its territory, signalling on Sunday night that it would not immediately act alone, but insisting its forces remained on high alert and that the leadership had approved both “offensive and defensive action”.
