Netanyahu meets top officials as fears of Iran attack on Israel grow

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is to meet top officials to prepare for a possible attack by Iran.
 
Tensions are high over the possibility that Tehran will retaliate for an air strike that killed senior Iranian commanders nearly two weeks ago.
 
US officials say a challenging and major attack on Israel could happen imminently.
 
Israel has said it is ready defensively and offensively.
 
Prime Minister Netanyahu is expected to meet members of his war cabinet.
 
One US official warned that Iran could use more than 100 drones, dozens of cruise missiles and possibly ballistic missiles, aimed at military targets in Israel.
 
The official added that there was still a possibility Iran could decide to hold back.
 
President Joe Biden has already promised Israel his country's ironclad support in the event of an Iranian attack.
 
The mounting tensions have led countries including the US, UK, India and Australia to warn against travelling to Israel.
