The statement was issued following the previous statement regarding the seizure of a vessel between the United Arab Emirates and Iran.
This comes as Israel braces for a potential direct assault from Iran within 24 to 48 hours, targeting either the southern or northern regions of the country.
In response to these heightened tensions, the US Embassy in Israel has implemented travel restrictions for government employees and their families, limiting personal travel to the central regions of Israel, Jerusalem, and Beersheba until further notice.
In a stark warning, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei declared on Wednesday that Israel “must be punished and it shall be,” labeling the airstrike as an assault on Iranian territory.
