Israeli intelligence predicts major Iranian attack from Iraq ahead of US election

Iran is preparing a “definitive and painful” attack against Israel from Iraq in the coming days, perhaps before the US presidential elections next Tuesday, November 5, as reported by Axios and Reuters citing several sources.

For this response to last weekend’s Israeli attack, Tehran would turn to the pro-Iranian militias in Iraq. With this plan, the Ayatollah regime would seek to avoid an attack directly from its territory in order to avoid a new response from Tel Aviv against strategic objectives in Iran.

Israeli intelligence estimates that this attack from Iraqi territory will be carried out using a large number of drones and ballistic missiles.

The commander of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, Major General Hossein Salami, warned this week that Israel had made a mistake in attacking Iran and stressed that Tehran’s response would be “different from any scenario” to which Israel may expect.
