ארה"ב מזהירה את העולם מתקיפות, וקוראת לדיפלומטים: תאמו מסרים עם ישראל
Summary
US Secretary of State Rubio has ordered American diplomats to alert foreign governments to an "elevated risk" of attacks by Iran and its proxies, according to a cable obtained by ABC News. The directive instructs diplomats to coordinate their messaging with Israeli counterparts, as Washington works to build a coalition to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The move comes amid growing European reluctance to back the US-Israel military campaign against Iran.
