Iran-Israel crisis LIVE updates: Israel's response to Iranian attack to be 'limited in scope': US officials
US officials have said that an Israeli response to Iran's attack on the Jewish nation will be "limited in scope". The country's response will most likely involve strikes against Iranian military forces and Tehran-backed proxies outside Iran, the officials said. On Monday, Israel's military chief, Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi said his country would respond to Iran’s attack, saying it “will be met with a response”. But he did not elaborate on when or how would Israel strike. The latest developments came amid soaring tensions in the region after Iran fired more than 300 missiles and drones on Israel in retaliation to the April 1 airstrike on its consulate in Syria that killed seven Revolutionary Guards. Sunday's attack lasted five hours and 99 per cent of drones and missiles were intercepted by Israel. Stay with indiatoday.in for the latest updates on the Iran-Israel crisis.
