Israeli Forces are Preparing near the Lebanese Border and Fears of a Major Escalation

The competent Israeli authorities asked the settlers not to go to the Jabal Al-Sheikh area, as a precautionary step for any response to the Israeli occupation after the assassination operation, which the United States has officially claimed responsibility for carrying out.

The former general in the occupation army, Amos Yadlin, said that Soleimani was targeted by Iran's enemies for a long time.

Before carrying out the American raid, Netanyahu said that "Israel" fully supports all American steps to defend itself.

For its part, the newspaper "Gulf Online" reported that the Israeli army raised the state of alert on the southern border, noting that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cut his visit to Greece short after the assassination of Soleimani.
