Israel and the U.S. are on edge as they await Iran’s retaliation for an Israeli airstrike that killed Iranian officers in Syria. Tensions are high due to Israel’s conflict with Hamas, with Iranian officials threatening Israeli embassies. Both countries are preparing for potential escalation, with the U.S. supporting Israel despite Biden’s concerns about Gaza. Iran has vowed to retaliate, but the extent of their response remains uncertain. Additionally, fears of Iranian-backed attacks on U.S. bases persist. Biden’s recent call with Netanyahu stressed the need for improving the humanitarian situation in Gaza, hinting at a shift in U.S. support. The situation is complex, with ongoing threats and concerns about further violence in the region.
