US officials are considering Israel's possible response to Iran's massive air attack, which took place last weekend. According to them, the response of Israel is likely to be limited in scale and will mainly be directed to the Iranian military forces and its proxy outside the Islamic Republic.
The US assessment is based on conversations between US and Israeli officials that have taken place before the attack. Last week, when Israel was preparing for a possible Iranian attack, Israeli officials informed American colleagues about possible response options.
US officials noted that they did not inform the final decision of Israel on the possible response to Iran's actions, and options may change.
They also stressed that it is not yet known when the answer could be, but added that it could happen at any time.
Last original Iran made a large -scale attack on Israel in response to Israeli strike on April 1, which destroyed Iran's diplomatic mission in Damascus and led to the death of Iranian generals.
After the Iranian attack on Israel, including the US, France and Britain, calls to Israel did not ignite the conflict even more in the West.
