Israel will respond to Iran’s attack but no final decisions have been made on the size or timing of the response, an Israeli official tells our partner network NBC News.
The official spoke after Israel’s war cabinet concluded a meeting that lasted several hours.
“It is clear Israel will respond, the question is when and at what scale,” the official said.
The IDF has been asked to present additional options to decision-makers.
The official said that among the considerations were whether Israel needed to retaliate immediately or could afford to wait, and what impact any escalation against Iran would have on Israeli operations in Gaza.
