Report: US warned Iran it will suffer devastating blow if it launches major attack on Israel

Iran may reconsider plans for “a multi-pronged attack” on Israel following Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh’s assassination in Tehran in July 2024, as reported by Politico and senior U.S. officials.

Initially, Iranian authorities rejected the U.S. claim that Haniyeh’s death did not warrant a significant response. However, those authorities are now “increasingly on board” with this view.
A U.S. official warned a retaliatory attack would pose a “serious risk” to Iran’s economy, indicating that an imminent attack on Israel is not expected.
