Israeli authorities have warned the US of their intention to strike the secretary general of the Shiite movement Hezbollah Hassan Nasrallah at the last moment, TV channel ABC reported, citing its sources.
According to his information, in response to this, US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin “went into a rage” when he spoke of the “great risks” that the US “faced in the region”. He also pointed to a possible response to the actions of the Jewish state, for which Washington did not have time to prepare.
One of the channel's interlocutors noted that US interests in the Middle East “could suffer significantly” if American officials completely lose contact with their Israeli counterparts.
