#Israel said the attack against #Iran was a “broad, coordinated, & joint operation against the regime” that had been planned for months between the Israeli & #US #military.
PM #Netanyahu said in a recorded message released Saturday morning that Israel plans the current operation to be “much more powerful” than the bruising 12-day war Israel launched against Iran in June.

Two officials with different #Iran backed #militias in #Iraq told The Associated Press that a meeting took place two months ago between Iranian officials & allied Iraqi militias to make plans for a response in case Iran was attacked, including distributing tasks among the Iraqi armed groups.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly.

One of the officials said it was decided that the response would target #US forces & interests in Iraq’s semi-autonomous northern Kurdish region & in neighboring #Jordan.
US troops have vacated bases where they were previously stationed in #Iraq in areas under the control of the central government in Baghdad as a result of an agreement to end the military mission in Iraq of an American-led coalition fighting the Islamic State, but they remain in the Kurdish region.

One of the most prominent Iraqi #militias, #KataibHezbollah, on Thursday issued a public statement urging its fighters to “be prepared to engage in a #war of attrition that may be prolonged & exceed the expectations of the #US administration.” It also issued a warning to the #Kurdish regional government in #Iraq “against collaborating with hostile foreign forces” that “could threaten its security & future.”

The #US & #Israel launched a major attack on targets across #Iran Saturday.
#Trump urged Iranians to take cover during the strikes, but then said “When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take.” It was an extraordinary appeal that suggested the allies could be seeking to end of the country’s theocracy after decades of tensions.

Spoljaric said civilian infrastructure, such as #schools, #homes & #hospitals, must be spared from attacks.

Vaez on social media stressed that Iran had been preparing for the conflict & that wider war could break out across the #MiddleEast.

In addition to the risk of wider #war & the human toll [which #Republicans don’t seem to care about], attacks on #Iran will increase #energy #prices.
He also stressed that the war could lead to higher energy costs, which would undercut one of Trump’s domestic [false] political messages that #gasoline prices have been lower since his return to power.

@Nonilex That may be the rules and the law but the reality is that first responders are often times selectively targeted to impact humanitarian aid.

#Iran backed #Houthis in #Yemen have decided to resume attacks on #ShippingRoutes & on #Israel in support of Iran.…
One official said the rebels’ first attack could come as soon as “tonight.”
The rebels had ceased attacks on the #shipping route as part of a deal with the #Trump admin that also halted #US strikes against the Houthis. They also stopped their attacks against Israel after an October “ceasefire” that halted major fighting in #Gaza.

@Nonilex i don't think that these calls for respect for rules of war matter. We can see it in Ukraine.
