As tensions escalate in the Middle East, Israel is preparing for a potential attack from Iran and its allies. Following the killings of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran and Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in Beirut, Iran's supreme leader has ordered retaliation against Israel.

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has also threatened a major response, while Iranian leaders and Iranian-backed militant groups vow revenge. The situation has led to the evacuation of tens of thousands of Israeli citizens, with fears of a broader regional war looming.

In response, countries like France, Canada, and Jordan have called on their citizens to leave the region. The United States has announced an increase in military presence in the Middle East, and Germany is considering providing military support to Israel.

Diplomatic efforts are also underway to de-escalate the crisis, with Jordan's foreign minister visiting Tehran. Meanwhile, intense clashes continue between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

The situation remains uncertain, and Israel is on high alert, both defensively and offensively, as it prepares for any scenario.
