With rising fears of an Iranian response to the elimination of a senior IRGC officer, a number of Israeli diplomatic delegations have been temporarily closed, according to Ynet reporter Itamar Eichner. According to the report, the delegates were instructed not to go to their offices.
Srugim, JFeed's sister site, asked the ministry about this. They responded that they do not address questions on the security of delegates and delegations.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu addressed the high level of readiness at the opening of the war cabinet meeting this evening: "For years, Iran has been acting against us both directly and via its proxies; therefore, Israel is acting against Iran and its proxies, defensively and offensively. We will know how to defend ourselves and we will act according to the simple principle of whoever harms us or plans to harm us, we will harm them."
