Iran is expected to attack Israel within the next 48 hours following a major attack by Hezbollah that left two Israeli Defense Forces soldiers injured, top Western diplomats have warned.

American news outlet Axios reported that Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, the United States’ highest-ranking diplomat, told the G7 yesterday that an attack in response to Israel killing Hamas‘ political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran and Fuad Shukr in Beirut, was imminent and would happen soon.

Iran claimed today that it has the “legal right” to respond to Haniyeh’s assassination, with foreign ministry spokesperson Nasser Kanani telling a news conference: “No one has the right to doubt Iran’s legal right to punish the Zionist regime.”

Israel claims it has the “right” to make a “preemptive strike”  on Iran if it believes Iran is going to strike them.

The U.S. has already signaled its intent to defend Israel and says it has no idea what a retaliatory response by Tehran would even look like.

The threats from Iran come just hours after Hezbollah, backed by the Iranian regime, launched a silo of 30 missiles from Lebanon towards upper Galilee.

Stark footage from the region showed Israel’s Iron Dome air defense system firing defensive missiles to intercept the barrage.

Despite this, two Israeli troops were wounded in the attack, which also set off a fire in northern Israel.

Hezbollah said in a statement it targeted a military base in northern Israel in response to ‘attacks and assassinations’ carried out by Israel in several villages in south Lebanon. -The Daily Mail UK

These ongoing attacks between Israel and both Lebanon and Iran could be the red line that ignites world war 3. Nothing has been quite bold enough to fling the planet into a global conflagration, but it bears watching closely as tensions continue to ratchet upward.
