Netanyahu warns Israeli Occupation ministers of critical days ahead

“Israeli” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned his ministers that the coming days will be critical, “Israeli” channel KAN reported.

The channel added that Netanyahu instructed his ministers not to make public statements on security matters in the coming days.

Earlier, CNN reported that “Israeli” intelligence believes Hezbollah will launch an attack on Aug. 12, followed by an Iranian strike.

This comes amid global anticipation of a large-scale Iranian attack on Tel Aviv in retaliation for the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.

There has been a rise in calls from countries in the region and around the world urging their citizens to leave Lebanon immediately, due to fears of a multi-front regional war.

The US State Department stated that Secretary Antony Blinken informed “Israeli” Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in a phone call that escalating tensions in the Middle East "is not in anyone’s interest."

Blinken also emphasized the need for a ceasefire in Gaza.

The department added in a statement, "The Secretary reaffirmed the US' steadfast commitment to “Israel's” security and stated that escalation is not in anyone’s interest."
