Israel braces for another Iranian attack after threats from leaders in Tehran

Iran’s supreme leader issues new threat after initially playing down Israeli strikes on Iranian military facilities

Israel is bracing itself for another Iranian attack after a crescendo of threatening rhetoric from leaders in Iran warning that the country would retaliate for an Israeli missile strikes last month.

Iran initially played down the impact of the 26 October Israeli strikes on its military facilities, which were in turn a response to an Iranian ballistic missile attack on Israel at the beginning of October.
