Washington, August 9 (RHC)-- A senior U.S. administration official has warned Iran that it would face “significant” consequences if it decides to attack Israel, the Reuters news agency reports.
The official, which Reuters did not name, said an Iranian attack would jeopardise Gaza ceasefire talks and result in consequences that would severely impact Iran’s economy.
Tensions have been high and a retaliatory attack is expected against Israel following the recent assassination of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in the Iranian capital Tehran and Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in the Lebanese capital of Beirut.
