The IDF has launched a “preemptive strike” on Iran for national security reasons, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has announced, warning the population of an expected retaliatory attack.

In a statement cited by several local media outlets early on Saturday, Katz said that the attack sought “to remove threats against the State of Israel,” adding that authorities are imposing a nationwide state of emergency due to expected missile and drone strikes on the country’s population in the immediate future.

A senior defense official told Israeli Channel 13 that “this is a joint Israeli-American attack” which the sides had been planning “for months.” An unnamed US official later confirmed to the WSJ that the American military was participating in the attack.

RT footage from Tehran showed two large plumes of smoke rising over the buildings in the Iranian capital.
