Israel is on high alert as the Israeli Defense Minister warns of Iran's plans for a large-scale attack. Rocket attacks by Hezbollah from Lebanon have hit multiple cities in western Galilee, with Israel unable to intercept them.

In the Deir ez-Zor region, where Iran holds influence, frequent Israeli and American air strikes have been reported. Clashes between Iran-affiliated fighters and Kurdish forces in the same region have resulted in casualties, including civilians.

In response, the US has deployed the USS Georgia submarine and the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln, along with additional military assets, to the Middle East. The assassination of the Hamas leader in Tehran has been attributed to Israeli intelligence services.

The US and its allies are showing their commitment to defending Israel and supporting its defense against potential retaliatory strikes. The situation has escalated tensions between Israel and Iran, with fears of a wider conflict.

Efforts for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war are underway, with calls for mediation and the release of prisoners.
