Cabinet held meeting in fortified area in Defense Ministry in Tel Aviv
The Israeli security Cabinet delegated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Minister Benny Gantz to make decisions about a response in the aftermath of an Iranian attack.
The Israeli broadcasting authority did not disclose the nature of decisions made by the Cabinet, which held a meeting in a fortified area in the Defense Ministry in Tel Aviv.
Netanyahu chaired a meeting of the War Cabinet before the Cabinet meeting, which included a larger number of ministers.
“There will be an unprecedented response,” the Maariv newspaper quoted an unnamed official.
Israeli officials in recent days have warned that if Iran attacks Israel from its territory, the response will be inside Iran.
The Israeli broadcasting authority said Israel requested an urgent Security Council meeting to condemn Iran and declare the Iranian Revolutionary Guard a “terrorist” organization.
