The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has declared an unusual 'absorption alert' (כוננות ספיגה) across all of Iran, a single report indicated Wednesday night. The IRGC assesses that the country will be attacked within the next one to three hours and has placed all missile forces on standby for counter-responses. The specific source of the expected attack was not stated in the report.
The alert comes amid the ongoing direct confrontation between the United States and Iran, which has included sustained U.S. strikes on IRGC assets in southern Iran since June, as The Zioneer has reported. The IRGC has previously raised alert levels and threatened retaliation against any U.S. or Israeli action. The current assessment of an imminent attack suggests a possible escalation in the weeks-long campaign.
