Iranian officials threatened that the country could use more powerful warheads in a retaliation against Israel, in an attack that may come as early as the day after the U.S. election.
Iranian officials have warned they are planning the country’s next attack using more powerful warheads than any previously used weapons in strikes against Israel, despite U.S. warnings against a counter-attack on the country, according to reports.
Israel attacked Iran on Oct. 26, targeting critical military infrastructure. The attack from Israel came in response to a wave of about 200 missiles launched from Iran into Israel on Oct. 1.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Israel has refrained from striking oil and nuclear facilities in Iran, which are essential to its security. Israeli officials have said that logic could change.
Iranian and Arab diplomats reportedly said its conventional army could be involved in future attacks against Israel, after losing four soldiers and a civilian in Israel’s most recent attack. But using the conventional army does not necessarily mean troops would be deployed, but instead, it could mean the Islamic Revolutionary Guard that typically deals with Israeli security measures may not act alone.
