The dice was thrown - Targets set

By Vassilis Kapoulas

The Middle East is going through its most critical moments as time counts down for military involvement. For the first time, the US-Britain-Israel and Romania are talking about a "collective (war) response to Iran".

Israel has released photos of the "kamikaze" drone bombed by the cargo ship "Mercer".
The photos completely confirm WarNews247 as the drone hit the deck of the ship with the ultimate goal of killing the captain as it happened.

"Collective response in Iran - Consequences are coming"

"Iran must face the consequences of what it has done," said British Prime Minister John Johnson when asked if a military response was on the table.

At the same time, the US Secretary of State, A. Blinken, stated "I want to condemn again Friday's attack on a merchant ship. We have conducted an investigation and we are sure that Iran carried out the attack.

There will be a collective response in Iran to the attack on the Mercer ship.
We are working with Britain, Romania and Israel and others on the "answer".

"Goals set - Who they are"
"Israel has set a list of Iranian targets and has received the 'green light' from the US and Britain to respond," the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida reported.

The newspaper claims that "there are advanced contacts between Israel and the United States. "The attack on the ship off the coast of Oman will not go unnoticed and Israel will strike a 'strong blow' in response."

Britain, whose civilian was killed in the attack and the US gave the "green light" to Israel to respond to Iran.

"Israel can counteract several important targets, such as the port of Bandar Abbas, the destruction of a ship off the coast of Iran, the targeting of an Iranian warship from which the drone took off to strike the merchant ship," Al-Jarida concluded.

Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz told the Knesset in the presence of Naftali Bennett:

"The attack on the ship, this escalation, shows that there must now be action against Iran. "Under the Raisi hanger, who will take office this week, Iran will be more dangerous to the world than ever before."

Iran has been put on alert
Former Iranian President Rouhani has said that "the former French president confessed to me that the UN Security Council countries have agreed to start a war against us."

This was reported by a leading Israeli media outlet.
Iranian media outlets that echo the positions of the Tehran government initially admitted that Iranian Guards were behind the Mercer ship strike in retaliation for Syria. Shortly afterwards, when Iran saw that the situation was serious, it denied any involvement.

In light of the dramatic developments, Iran is in a state of war. According to Iranian information, its air defense is in a state of war alert while anti-aircraft systems have been transferred to the Bushehr nuclear plant.

An Iranian source told Press TV, which echoes the views of the Iranian Guards, that "Tehran will give a strong and overwhelming response to any action taken against national interests and security, blaming Britain and the United States for the consequences of such moves of Iran ” .

The Iranian Foreign Minister is on the same wavelength.
"We will respond promptly and vigorously in the event of any military action justifying the attack on the Mercer tanker."

Finally, the leader of the Israeli Armed Forces, General Aviv Kohavi, contacted the Commander of the Central Command (CENTCOM) Frank McKenzie to discuss regional developments and the response in Iran.
