US Secretary of State Antony Blinken told counterparts from G7 countries that Washington believes an Iranian attack on Israel could begin within the next 24 to 48 hours, Axios reports, citing sources briefed on the call.
According to the report, Blinken spoke with his counterparts amid efforts by the US to de-escalate tensions in the region and prevent the eruption of an all-out war.
As the US believes an Iranian attack is inevitable after the killing of top Hezbollah and Hamas officials last week, Blinken told the officials on the call that pressuring Tehran to limit its assault is the best way to avoid regional war.
Blinken said that the US doesn’t know the exact timing of the planned Iranian attack, Axios adds, but believes it could start as early as Monday.
