Iran accuses Israel of deliberately killing generals - USA apparently warns of Iranian retaliation against Israel. US media reports agree that senior US government officials believe a retaliatory strike by Iran is inevitable.
CNN said on Friday, citing a high-ranking US government official, that the US was actively preparing for a "significant" attack next week. Both US and Israeli targets could be targeted. However, both governments do not know "when and how Iran is planning a counterattack," CBS reported. The question is whether they would be sent from Iranian territory or from Iraq or Syria.
