As we noted, Israeli media report the country may launch a retaliatory strike against Iran while still trying to avoid a regional war. Tonight, we’re getting greater insight into that possibility, as well as the weekend attacks by the Islamic Republic. Correspondent Jeff Paul is in Tel Aviv tonight. We’re here with the body of one of the ballistic missiles, roughly 36 feet long. Israeli military says. This is the remnants of a fuel tank of just one of the estimated 110 ballistic missiles Iran launched directly at Israel. Firing 110 ballistic missiles is an escalation to the region is a dangerous escalation. The Israeli military confirms there will be a response to Iran’s weekend missile and drone attack, saying it’ll be done in a way and at a time Israel chooses. Always a fear of escalation, but we’re not looking for escalation. We are looking to make sure that Iran doesn’t do this. The scope of Israel’s retaliation is unclear as the country’s war cabinet debates its response. But one of Israel and Iran’s closest neighbors in the Middle East is urging calm. Jordan’s foreign minister says the country won’t let anyone put their citizens in danger and will confront anyone who does. Our message is clear to everyone, to Israel and Iran that we will not allow you to turn Jordan into a war zone. Iran, which has characterized the attack on Israel as retaliation for a deadly strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, Syria, is warning Israel against risking A wider conflict. If the Israeli regime makes a mistake this time, Iran’s response, as Iran’s military commanders announced, will not be minimal, but immediate and severe. Now, in addition to the situation involving Iran, as well as the ongoing war in Gaza, there’s also new tensions in the north along the Israel Lebanon border, the IDF confirming it killed 2 Hezbollah commanders, and recent targeted strikes. Brett, Jeff Paul live in Tel Aviv. Jeff, thank you.
