Tehran: Iran is furious after the attack on its embassy in Syria. Preparations have been started to respond by holding Israel responsible for the attack. Hezbollah, Iran’s proxy extremist organization in the Middle East, has also warned Israel that it is ready for war. There is also news of increased firing between Israel and Hezbollah on the Lebanese border. Meanwhile, Iran has asked America to stay away from this matter so that Washington does not get burnt in the heat of this fight. Iran has said that it has sent a written message to Washington to warn. Mohammad Jamshidi, the Iranian President’s deputy chief of staff for political affairs, wrote on Twitter, referring to the Israeli Prime Minister, in a written message, “Iran has warned America about Netanyahu’s Have warned not to fall into the trap. America should step aside so that you do not get hurt.” Jamshidi further said that “Washington has responded by asking Iran not to attack US targets.” However, America has not commented on the alleged message sent by Iran.
America on high alert
According to the report of US media outlet CNN, America is on high alert. Quoting an unnamed official, it said that the US is preparing a significant response from Iran against Israeli or American targets in the region. Two US officials told NBC News on condition of anonymity that the Joe Biden administration is concerned that an attack could be carried out against military or intelligence targets inside Israel.
Bloomberg has reported in its report about an unusual step by the US, in which the Biden administration directly informed Iran that it had no prior information about Monday’s attack in Damascus. This shows that America fears a big response from Iran and it is being seen as an attempt to attack America’s military and bases in the Middle East.
Is Israel scared of Iran, canceled the leave of soldiers in view of the attack?

Last Monday, Iran’s Consulate in Syria’s capital, Damascus, was destroyed in an airstrike. In this, Mohammad Reza Zahedi, the top general of Iran’s elite force Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, and his deputy were killed. Iran has said that it will respond to Israel ‘responsible for this attack’ and will decide its own timing. However, it is not clear whether Iran will attack Israel directly or respond through a proxy organization such as Lebanon-based Hezbollah.
