Israel's Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said on Monday that the country's military should be prepared for a "quick transition to offense" in case of an anticipated Iranian and Hezbollah attack on Israel, following last week's Israeli strikes on Beirut and Tehran.
"Our enemies are carefully considering their steps thanks to the abilities you have demonstrated in the last year. However, we must prepare for all possibilities, including a quick transition to offense," Gallant stated during his visit to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) headquarters in Tel Aviv.
Previously, sources told Axios that the United States and Israeli officials expect Iran to carry out its retaliatory attack on Israel on Monday.
