Israel's war cabinet is apparently in difficult discussions about a response to Iran's attack. Some members of the right wing of the Israeli government, such as Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, are calling for a heavy military response on Iranian soil.

Did Iran notify the USA before the attack on Israel? This question continues to be a matter of debate. The Bundeswehr has refueled three French fighter jets to defend against Iranian attacks on Israel. The Israeli army, together with allies such as the USA and Great Britain, shot down 99 percent of all drones and missiles fired from Iran. Iran neither announced when the attack would take place nor explained its targets. Since the damage in Israel is very minimal, Iran now wants to backtrack and therefore claims to have communicated important information in advance anyway. The U.S. has been trying for years to create a comprehensive air defense umbrella in the Middle East in cooperation with Arab allies, officials said. Russia called on all states in the region to show “restraint”
